Ugh.

Ugh just about sums up my feelings today. I’ve been sewing and sewing and sewing and it’s not even a project I’m enjoying. My dad wanted me to make this arrowhead photo quilt and I am, but it is so incredibly boring. I like making quilts because I like playing with fabric. If I wanted to do photo manipulation I’d make him a scrapbook. I will never make another photo quilt again.

I will also never go to the beauty college again. My friend told me it was the best place to get your eyebrows waxed. I think she equated best with cheapest. I’d never had any part of my body waxed before, but I started plucking my brows last year and I really like the look. Waxing seemed a lot faster and less painful. It was much faster and less painful. I just happen to look like a freak of nature now. Oh well. The skinny one will grow back. Someday. I knew things weren’t going well when the girl got this little shocked look on her face and gasped “ooops.” Here I thought I was going to get all gussied up for our trip to San Fransico and it turned out I was just turning myself into a mess. Tomorrow: haircuts. Hopefully that will go better.

I’ve been really cranky all day so decided to skip water aerobics. The new teacher sends me into a rage just by existing, so I did an hour on the elliptical instead. I did a 12 minute mile! I know you runners out there are laughing at my slowness, but it was a major improvement for me. I am totally loving this fitness thing.

I’m reading a really great book right now (latest Jeffery Deaver) but I never have time to read it! I should go do so right now instead of typing this up. Too bad I can’t read and take a shower at the same time.

    I suggest you go to your nearest MAC counter, buy a thin brush (brush # 266) and a dark eye shadow (I use Charcoal Brown – but I’m a blonde – you might need a darker color) and “paint” in the missing hairs. Someone at the counter will help you out. I have been doing this ever since someone ruined my eyebrows a few years ago. It saved me from total embarrassment and cured me of the urge to go back and make the perpetrator regret she ever contemplated cosmetology as a career.

    It doesn’t look that bad. Really. I’d tell you.
