Wide awake now (shocker!) and cheerful.
I *love* hip-hop and R&B, but I listen to everything. My music collection is a mish-mash of singers and bands from across the board.
It depends. Sometimes, but I mostly like to wear complementary colors.
Sleep in, curl up on the couch with a good book and watch movies!
I’m going with a cat eye and red lips today using mostly MAC products. Eyes: MAC Painterly Paint Pot, MAC Arena Eyeshadow, MAC Fluidline in Blacktrack and MAC Dazzlelash Mascara in Black Dazzle. Lips: MAC Cockney lipstick from the Euristocrats 2 collection. Cheeks: Illamasqua Bronzing Duo in Glint & Burnish.
I can appreciate a well groomed man, but I was never drawn to guys who wear more beauty products than I do, LOL!
A mix of both. For certain things, like big meals out or events with lots of people, I like to have a plan, but if it’s just me and another person, I prefer to wing it.
A couple, like I’m afraid of earthworms (YUCK!) and confined spaces. Oh, and I’m deathly afraid of one day getting stuck in an elevator!
Dark jeans, a black scoop neck top, white cotton blazer, black strappy sandals and a long necklace with faux pearls.
Dust off my stability ball and try some new ab exercises, rearrange the living room, and find a few new writing exercises to try.
Whew! I’m running behind this morning because I stayed up late last night reading Dead Until Dark, by Charlaine Harris.
It’s one of the books that inspired the True Blood TV series. Yup, Mom always said there’s nothing like curling up on the couch with a cup of tea and a vampire story…
Okay, maybe Mom never said that, but it would have been *really awesome* if she had. 🙂

Mood: relaxed. It’s my day off.
What’s your favorite type of music?
I like mostly anything but I love to ROCK!!
Do you like to match your toe and finger nail polishes?
Depends on my mood, they at least have to coordinate like black toe nails and pink fingernails.

Hi Tania,
I can see how parades can be creepy… all those people milling about, plus, animals that can go nuts at any given time.
Oh, what kind of couch are you looking for? I went window shopping for couches a few weeks ago. I would really like one with micro-suede fabric and fluffy cushions.
Redhead says
Mood: Excited for the start of school! This summer has been SUCH a snore.
What’s your favorite type of music? The Beatles – they’re a genre of their own 😀
Do you like to match your toe and finger nail polishes? Doesn’t matter to me. I normally just paint my nails with whatever’s lying around, so normally I’d have different toes and fingers. They’re matching now, though! (Maybelline Express Finish 60 Second Nail Color in Go Go Green).
What do you like to do on your days off? Lie around and do nothing, go to a nearby cold freshwater spring and swim (did that yesterday, so fun!), bake random desserts.
Eyes/lips/cheeks: Nothing yet, but I’ll probably do something simple later on with a pop of a random bright on my lids, liner, mascara and contoured cheeks.
Dudes who wear eyeliner: hawt or not? Depends on who the guy is. Johnny Depp in POTC? Not to me! Pete Wentz? Oooh yeaaaah 😉
Are you a planner or a spontaneous kinda girl? I’ll plan for something big, but I’m also good at thinking quick!
Do you have any phobias? I have arachnophobia which is a fear of spiders, plus I can’t stand any other large bugs. I’m also scared as hell of falling out of the car and into the water while in a car on a bridge or a lakeside road!

Do you like to match your toe and finger nail polishes?
Usually not – I’m pretty conservative with my nails, more daring with my toes.
