Mixed Nuts Part 2

[PrincessJasmine08]

You know what company has great names - Urban Decay. I have a black eyeshadow called "Oil Slick"...my favourite lipgloss is called "Gash"...

Why does "Gash" for lips just sound wrong?

 

[RobInBigKC]

Rob...what's with the beef thing in your signature?

Gee, I wonder. Why would I put an ad for MEAT at dinner in my siggy? It's almost like I was trying to be an irritant to someone.

Who names this things

I like the names. I think they're clever. And unique.

Just like me!!! HA!

From what I've read here the last few days, I like the names too but I also have to agree with Keith. Does the word marooned make you want to buy a nail polish? Although I guess there are worse places to be marooned than the Magnificent Mile. Still, it could be Marooned at Disney World or Marooned with No Kids or Marooned with a HotT Hunk (given their mostly female target consumers) if they really wanted to bump their sales up.

Um, yeah.

BTW, P&J, I'm not ignoring your questionairre post -- just will have to think about it a bit before I reply to you.

That's the whole point - the names are SUPPOSED to be a bit "off." That's why the company is called Urban Decay.

I'm looking at some of them now...in eyeshadows, they have "Asphyxia," "Crash," "Acid Rain," "Mildew," "Roach," "Stray Dog," "Uzi"...

The "Gash" lipgloss is quite pretty...it's a deep shimmery red.

BTW...sorry I can't help with your survey. No kids.

1. WELL, imagine that!!!

2. Thank you.

Oh. Okay. I guess I didn't get that. I don't think I could use roach eyeshadow though.

I'm sure no one's here right now because they're all on the edge of their seats watching the Country Music Awards. I'm sure of it. Either that or that's just what I'm doing.

"Roach" actually isn't too bad. It's a deep brown with a touch of red to it. I can't really wear red eyeshadow, though. It does make my eyes look more green, but when you take in the overall effect, I look like I have a disease.

No CMAs for me. I loathe country music.

1. I really don't know how we can even be friends. Country music is my life. So far tonight I have been reminded that I LOVE Taylor Swift (she's amazing) and Brad Paisley didn't sound very good.

2. I don't think redheads are supposed to wear red eyeshadow. Or pink clothing, for that matter. Looks like you're in luck in that area.

A) I think you got your numbers reversed

1) Well, I'm sure you don't particularly like The Cure, or the Cruxshadows, or the Dresden Dolls, or Siouxsie and the Banshees, or Bauhaus, or the Sisters of Mercy...

2) Redheads aren't supposed to wear red eyeshadow, but I rock the red lips. Depending on the shade of pink and the shade of the red hair, some redheads really can wear pink (usually if it has some brown in it). I just don't like pink to begin with.

Hey, it's been a long day, I'm tired! Let's try again with the number thing.

5.) I've never even heard of any of those, so, no!

6.9.) I don't wear lipstick. My sister wears a lot of pink and I would call her a redhead.

Is it really pathetic that I'm starving but I won't get up off the couch and make dinner because I'd rather be hungry than get up? I'm so freaking tired lately.

Hi Liz! Hi PJ!

I'm sure no one's here right now because they're all on the edge of their seats watching the Country Music Awards. I'm sure of it. Either that or that's just what I'm doing.

Actually, I'm at work which seems to be my whole life lately (over 70 hours last week!!! and no day off -- including weekends -- since October 20). On the CMAs, are the ladies' dresses way too small? (That's the thing I always enjoy the most about those awards shows -- see Twain, Shania in years past for an example.)

1. I really don't know how we can even be friends. Country music is my life. So far tonight I have been reminded that I LOVE Taylor Swift (she's amazing) and Brad Paisley didn't sound very good.

DS14 is asking for Ticketmaster Gift Cards for his birthday and Christmas so that we can attend some country music concerts since he wants to go to almost everyone that comes to town. This new arena in our city has really put a cramp on my ability to get free tickets -- even if the show has a chance at being moderately entertaining, everyone wants to go to see the new arena.

Me too.

A) I think you got your numbers reversed

I was going to say that. See, P&J, color-coding is so much easier.

Is it really pathetic that I'm starving but I won't get up off the couch and make dinner because I'd rather be hungry than get up? I'm so freaking tired lately.

Yes. On the other hand, I am wondering what I am going to eat for supper when I get home since I already ate three bowls of Lucky Charms this morning for breakfast. Maybe I should get Chinese carryout and bring it over (since you are too tired to cook)?

You are saying the "tired thing" almost every night. I still think it's the time change thing but am hoping you aren't getting sick again. Don't let her breathe on you Liz (just in case).

Expand your horizons. Listen to "Girl Anachronism" by the Dresden Dolls. That is SO my song!

Red lips are the best I can do. I can't do black lipstick for everyday. I do have a purple one that looks okay; gives me enough of a pallor but not enough to make people do a double-take.

I've done that. I'm freaking tired, too. I didn't get up until almost 7 this morning (I have to be at work for 8).

I'm signing off. Watching Ghost Hunters...

Have a good night.

 

[RobInBigKC]

Good night Liz!

1. No. They are all dressed in modestly fitting pantsuits. Especially Taylor Swift. It's the new look this year.

2. I think I'll figure out something for dinner without your assistance. I wish I had Lucky Charms.

3. I know. I'm seriously exhausted. I think I could fall asleep right now and easily sleep until I have to get up at 6. I don't know why either. It's annoying me.

LIZ!!! Don't leave me alone with HIM!!!!!!!!!
I'll listen to that one song. Maybe.

18. I opened a brand new box this morning so it was nice and fresh (just like me!). Last night when I was shopping for them, I saw the 18ish ounce size had "double clovers" in it.

46. I meant to write this in my last post. Make sure you are getting enough to eat and drink young lady. I know a lot of times when I feel tired, it's moreso that I need food and drink to get my body going again (better to overnap than to overeat though I guess).

You used to be my friend.

1. Tell me more about this double clover. I am intrigued. Although I did have to teach you all about the marshmallows if I recall correctly.

2. It seems too late for dinner though.

that was then, this is now.

1. Is that what we're calling them now? Oh wait, the marshmallows in the cereal. Yes, well, you had to edumucate me on the ones added since the 1980s.

I honestly don't remember much. It was well after 10:00 and I was making a grocery store run at my local Target for cereal (I also got Frosted Mini-Wheats) and cheese (Kraft, American, sliced -- since you're all interested ). I don't remember if it was double the amount of clovers or a doubly-big clover or if the marshmallow just had a double clover graphic of some kind on it.

While at Target, I also checked out the men's hats but decided to wait for a sale, possibly -- I definitely wasn't tempted at full price. And when I checked out, the girl whose line I went through was named "New Group Member" or something like that -- that's what her nametag said anyways -- I assume that is so they can start people right away without waiting for corporate to deliver the person's name tag.

2. Breakfast then. My prediction is that I will be eating a breakfast platter at the local hole in the wall diner in a bit over 30 minutes. I would state the name of the diner but Rella might see it and hunt me down. Here's a hint Rella: best breakfast sausage in all of K.C.

3. Nice.

Thanks for the play by play of your life there, Roberto. I had been wondering how your last Target outing went.
hmmm....maybe I'm snarky tonight!
AND, I think if anyone needs to be worried in the Rella/Rob scenario, it's Rella. Just sayin.
Almost time for Entertainer of the Year. Kenny better take that because he just lost male entertainer and that is so wrong.

Kenny Rogers?

-- Rob

 

[PrincessJasmine08]

Yeah, Kenny Rogers.

 

[PrincessJasmine08]

HE WON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Smart people votin on that one, gotta say.
Have I mentioned that I love Kenny Chesney?
This seems like a good note to leave on. Night.

 

[RobInBigKC]

Yeah, Kenny Rogers.

I know Mr. Chesney is your guy but he just doesn't do it for me. Now, Josh Turner, on the other hand (and he's 9 years younger than Chesney -- you DO realize that Kenny Chesney is OLDER THAN ME! )
(or even that old Clint Black guy is kind of cute)
