Hi Rachel,

Oh, I saw that on Erika’s site, too. It’s from the new Chanel collection. I can’t wait to see it.

BTW, I have a ton of to-do lists laying around, too. I started using Evernote and it’s helped a lot in keeping all of them straight.

Mood: A little tired, some pain/sore
What was one thing that made you happy this weekend? hanging out with Fate and Frankie, the fam in general.
Outfit and shoes: slippers, sweatshirt and pjs.
Current lipstick or lipgloss crush? I just saw this Chanel lipstick on MakeupBag that I really liked. I’m pretty sure the lipstick was Naive.
What are your nicknames? Rae, Rigs and Rigoletto. We get creative up in this piece.
Song that always tugs at your heart? All by Myself by anyone (Air Supply, Celine Dion, etc.) and Cats in the Cradle by Harry Chapin
How do you feel about 80s fashion? I don’t like 80s fashion. I immediately think obscenely BIG HAIR, acid wash jeans, shoulder pads, Member’s Only jackets, NEON, etc. I do think that bringing back *skinny jeans* is because of an 80s influence, though, and in a way I can appreciate that. I think skinny jeans are an interpretation of the tapered styles of the 80s and really straight styles of yore. I still continue to wear my bootcuts… but that’s neither here nor there.
Favorite movie? Some faves ~ Old Boy, Milk and Shortbus.
Weekly goals: Keep up with all the to-do lists I write on scrap paper lol.

Hi Shana T,

I had a big stack of those rubber bracelets in the 80s. Mine were colorful, although I really wanted black ones just like Madonna’s.

What’s your class’s play about? Are you almost done with the first draft (that’s usually the hardest)?

Hi Karen!
Mood: Tired, it’s actually Tuesday night here and it was stinking hot today!!

What was one thing that made you happy this weekend? I went to dinner with my hubby and then we went to see Night at the Museum 2. I thought it was really funny, I pretty much laughed through the whole thing.

Outfit and shoes: Right now bare-foot, and wearing a teal mini dress over navy blue shorts.

Current lipstick or lipgloss crush? Hmmmmm… I’ve been wearing a random peachy lipgloss that I found in my drawer. I honestly don’t know the brand because the label is worn off.

What are your nicknames? Shanabanana, Ducky, Gozui, Stix..

Song that always tugs at your heart? Lightning Crashes by Live

How do you feel about 80s fashion? NASTY! The only thing I like from that era are the rubber bracelets that all the punk girls wore! I was pretty young in the 80’s.

Favorite movie? An obscure little known Australian movie called Strictly Ballroom. It’s the only movie that I’ve watched through once and then watched again directly after.

Weekly goals: Exercise, finish first draft of script for my 6th grade class’s play, buy Korean money now while it’s cheap for our Korea trip in August.
