Tonight I am enjoying the heaven that is:
a computer
a triple sapphire and tonic with fresh lime
lit cigarettes
and me.
This week I need to submit my application for a bank loan for my business. I am TERRIFIED of bankers. They all look the same, speak in the same soothing android undulation, move in the same stilted, semi-slow motion sort of way...I half expect when I wear my snazzy pink sunglasses into a bank that they're all going to be aliens invisible to the naked human eye. No wait...that's my mother...
M gave me a $100 gift certificate to kick my ass in gear and get my sleeve finished and touched up. Geez, it's only been seven years since I had it done, you'd think I woulda bothered finishing it before now...I am one of those tattoo fanatics who can't seem to set aside any money to get work done...so instead I get my best friends all riled up and see them go off to get tattooed (eh, Skinny?
). It's like going shopping with me, I can't afford to get anything so instead I pick out great stuff for YOU to buy for yourself. I'm so good at encouraging other people to treat themselves...lousy at doing it for myself. Although, I have to admit that there is one small item I will buy myself to pick my spirits up:
make-up.
Not the shit you buy at the drug store. The good stuff. The rich lady make up.
My wisdom for the evening:
The perfect red lipstick (confirmed by my extremely talented make up artist pal) is N36 by Make up Forever. Trust me...A drawer full of unused red lipsticks and a ten year obsession were tossed to the curb when she showed me that lipstick.
Question: What's your favorite thing to treat yourself to when you're kind of glum?
