I got a facial today and a light peel, my second one. The aesthetician said my skin was looking great. Over the holidays I am going to get a medium-depth peel, which will involve all manner of cracking and flaking but which will hopefully be great.

I rarely ever straighten my hair but when I do it’s like LOOK OUT, WORLD. Add some mascara and I feel like hot shit for once in my life, it’s great.

I want to experience this phenomena of clean sheets and freshly-shaved legs. I don’t have much leg hair so I shave once a year. I’m going to try even though the shave was in May.

This article doesn’t mention one Native author quoted, and you don’t mention the only Native writer who covered this piece. This is erasure. Fix it. I didn’t do that work to be erased.

I physically cannot blow my nose without actual, physical pain, because I’ve broken my nose so many times. (And no, I am not going to re-break it to fix my deviated septums.) So I apologize if I’m one of the snifflers who has annoyed you! It’s a health/money thing, not a lazy thing.

hi there, john!

My husband and I about got ran over today in a similar situation. He was getting back on his bike, the lady called out “passing on the left” right before she almost hit him and then her group didn’t actually move to the left to pass so they almost ran me off the trail. They were slower than us so we had to pass them…

I have a ton of chin hair that I tweeze pretty regularly but there is nothing like getting it waxed and it’s all smooth.

Clean sheets and freshly shaved legs are so perfect. I get in there and just writhe around :)

Oh, I feel you on the grocery carts. People are very inconsiderate those things. How hard is it to pull the cart over to one side?

I fucking love when my hair is freshly dyed or I just recently got my eyebrows waxed. Also, when I have clean sheets and shaved legs on the same day. That’s awesome.

There are more than a few sounds that drive me absolutely frothing mad. Off the top of my head and in no particular order:

I’ve done similar but in the grocery store with carts. The whole situation with carts makes me cranky, but x100 when I’m PMSing.

I get introvert overload very easily when I’m psm’ing and snap at my super chatty husband. Bonus points if I’m hangry. So yeah, last weekend I was a total bitch.

Too many to name. I don’t know how many times I’ve wanted to PULL SOMEONE’S SPINE DIRECTLY OUT OF THEIR NOSE, and then I check my calendar, and, whoops, PMS (which, as a side note, my phone just autocorrected to “On my way!”). A friend asked me if I wanted to go see The Hitman’s Bodyguard, and all I wanted to do today…

I feel ya. When I used to get periods (no more, praise Mirena) I had one day, one whole day every month when I just wanted to kill everyone around me. I could practically feel the dark cloud over my head and I knew I had a perma-scowl. I would limit contact with people as much as possible, talk as little as I could…

I once got mad at my lab partner in college cause the sound of his pencil on paper while he was writing irritated me.

Road rage! Getting pissed at people texting and driving and also people who won’t let you get off the train or bus before they try and get on, when I’m PMS raging they get elbows, bony elbows...

I am hardcore pms-ing today. I totally lashed out at some innocent bystanders, too. I feel a little bad. I was on my bike on a bike path and an older couple went to pass me. I could see as they passed that they were struggling to go faster than I was, but whatever. If someone if genuinely going faster than me, I want…

You guys, I just got my hair professionally colored for the first time in more than a year and this is so shallow but now I feel invincible. What is your self-indulgent beauty thing that makes you feel like a superhero fairy queen? I want to do all of them.
