Today my neighbour, who I see as a grandmother, came to my house. I showed her my makeup collection (again) and told her the story behind my makeup.

Chanel Lagons eye shadow quad - first tried it on in Taoyuan airport - purchased it at Nordstrom in California (I plan out my purchases in advance....pretty much never impulse buy)

Chanel Vanites eye shadow quad - first tried it at Heathrow airport - purchased it in Saks in San Francisco

Dior blusher - purchased it in Taiwan after I gave my other Dior blusher to my grandmother, who liked it (she never uses it though haha)

Dior golden flower eye shadow quint - bought it winter 2013

Dior eye shadow quint - bought it in London in spring 2012 part of their spring collection

YSL quint - tried it on in London, ordered it from Saks in Boston

Dior brushes - all purchased in London before Dior redid their brushes. so my ones are the silver ones with the white "dior" lettering

Mac brushes - told her that I regularly use the 217 (blending), 275 (or something) for precise crease application, and the dior flat eye shader brush, I have another (224?) that is useless to me

Mac eye shadow - explained that 2 I got for free from Mac after telling them I had a problem with the eyeliner

Mac eyeliner - cheaper than Dior/Chanel but tip always breaks off

I also showed her some of my old La Prairie containers which I still hold on to...we smelled the anti aging night cream bottle and the white caviar hand cream...absolutely divine...brings back wonderful memories of shopping in connecticut and new york city......it's calming and nice to smell....I desire another white caviar hand cream but it costs $150 >.>

Also my neighbour had gone with her granddaughter for dinner for mother's day and she bought a milk tea for me there...I was touched that she thought of me....I'm not close to most of my relatives but my neighbour's family treats me just as if I was in their family...they are kind, interested in what I have to say, they do nag me about stuff because they care...exactly how I would expect a close family to be.....

    This should be a blog post not a forum post, you would likely be better placed to use the my fitness pal blog...you can blog to your heart's content there. You can also blog about your exercise there as well.

    Go to the My Home link on the top left side of the monitor, and then clink on My blog link which is placed in middle of the top of the monitor.

    no one would read it if I posted it on the blog instead of on the general forums.....people post on forums not on a diary because they like to interact and get a discussion going...

    So what are we supposed to discuss here?

    Your makeup?

    Yes you can and you can also talk about your makeup and your fun shopping experiences.

    I skimmed and saw.you went shopping in San Francisco. The last fun shopping trip I had there was at Good Vibrations. Have you ever been?

    My evil ex's best friend works at the local sex shop, and because I want my ex to think I'm just totally insane and off the deep end, I go in there from time to time and ask for the most obscure, bizarre, and disturbing things. I research the brands first to really make it seem like I know what I'm talking about.

    Somehow I find this amusing. So I do it over and over.


    thats amazing..... and hilarious..... i love it!

    Do you love anything other than material possessions OP? I see all your posts and can't help but think you'd be better off on a Cosmo forum...

    And god, that poor woman must have been bored witless.

    I have already learned that nipple clamps are not supposed to be used with car batteries. She wasn't sure about motorcycle batteries though, or whether the self-adhesive bondage tape was electrically conductive. Also, they do not carry soundproofing material.


    LMAO...... i would guess that the self-adhesive bondage tape is NOT electrically conductive... but thats me ....

    What sense does it make for a sex shop to not carry soundproofing material? :mad:
