A new store opened up in the shopping center next to the mall I work in (the shopping center I used to work in, haha). It's called Ulta, to me it's like a mix between Sally Beauty Supply, Sephora and Wal-mart, and I went three days in a row, haha. I'd never heard of the store before, but when I drove by and saw it had just opened I got all excited.
Oh, to top it off... it has a salon in it, which admittedly Wal-mart does too... but the wal-mart salon is different, somehow.
The first day I dragged Zach in with me, the second day I went in on break 'cause I'd just gotten paid and I could actually afford to buy myself the orange eyeshadow I found there, haha. I've been determined to find a semi-specific orange shade for weeks... so I can wear it while Rob's here, even though he doesn't notice my makeup... well, not when I change it around, so much... he just notices he thinks I'm pretty, I guess. The third day I took my co-worker. I got the free gift both days, as I bought something both days... haha.
Rob will be here in four days! I'm excited, but not as excited as I should be... I don't think it seems real... I mean, I can't even remember the last day I had off work... I think it was last Tuesday? I've lost track of time.
Tomorrow I'm supposed to go with two friends for a celebratory dinner for Vinta's being about to be a married lady! I'm so excited for her! I feel bad 'cause I was too tired to go to the strip club with her, plus I'd brought Zach as I knew she wanted to get to meet him, but they didn't even get to talk 'cause we were too far away at the table :/ I'm such a lame friend
I haven't decided how I want to do my makeup for when I pick Rob up, I want to wear a low-cut shirt but I'll likely wear my shiny silver one from Forever 21, it's technically low-cut... but has lace covering up the boobies so you can't really get but a glimpse of my boobs... I think it's mega sexy, though... other than I would prefer the sleeves be longer. I'm likely going with the 50s bombshell look like Marilyn Monroe would wear... but I don't know for sure. Otherwise I'm leaning to the 50s pin-up look with neutral eyeshadow and bright red lips, and I'm going to get my fake lashes back out... possibly.
Not to mention the wedding, I'm debating lined eyes and a natural pinkish lipstick, so I'm not over-powering in photos. Dunno, can't decide.
I know I want to get my nails done, but I don't think I'll have money... I might could do it Thursday, write a check and then by the time it goes in on Friday I'll have gotten my direct deposit on. Tuesday I have to get my car fixed, but I'm charging that bad-boy to my new credit card as I over-drafted on Zach's valentine's present... but it didn't go in for that purchase, which is all I over-drafted on... 3 other purchases went in afterwards instead, so I got feed 3 times instead of once.... Yup, super-thrilled.
I've lost almost all the weight that was my goal for by Rob's visit, but we'll see if I can manage a bit more in the next four days, haha.
It's pretty amusing to me that once every six months I get a lot prettier than I do the rest of the year... honestly, I get all did-up in the hopes of impressing Rob... he'd love me even if I looked like crap, but I just want to wow him.
Did I ever mention I dyed my hair back to as close to my natural color as I think I've ever gotten it? When first dyed it perfectly matched my eyebrows, it's lightened out to a good, about my natural, color.... not quite as pretty 'cause it's missing some of my pretty highlights. But now I can grow it out without feeling annoyed with the two-toned thing. I'm apparently a "dark ash blonde", before Rob's grandma just mixed a dark blonde and a light brown to try to get it close, but it didn't work as well as I'd hoped.
I'll probably post photos in the next...erm, seven days... because I feel the need for a photo post, but I'm not in a cam-whorish mood. But after Rob arrives, and the wedding, I should definitely have some piccies.
And I've started to take St. Johns Wort to see if it helps with how moody I am, I think it's actually working.. we'll see.
I had a point, but I got distracted... so... erm, fuck it.
