Confessions?

maratea

I almost never do liner on my lower because I have small eyes. I love doing winged eyeliner though. It makes me have doe eyes. Oh and by eyeliner habit, I meant buying it. I have like 40... But Ive used them all at least once.

Matty, right now I'm using a Rusk smoothing conditioner.   I shower every morning but am not one to keep my hair out of the water so I put some conditioner in while I do everything else (shave, lather...).

The many styles of Brandi:

These have all taken place in about the last 18 months.

Decent mix of short/long/blonde/brown/straigt/curly. lol

I really like the color in the third photo.

AllAboutTheBenjamin

I like your hair brandi!  it looks shiny.  My hair doesn't have much shine, I feel like.

Matty143

Girlie- ohh ok. Yeah I don't get it wet unless I'm shampooing.

Mara- Were eyeliner twins! What are you favorites?

Kate- yes after sex, I definitely put some on.

I cant sleep completely naked. I'm worried something will happen in the middle of the night (like a fire) and Ill be scrambling to put something on. lol.

Matty143

Pretty Brandi!

brandichamberlain

Thanks.  It's dark and long these days but still really shiny.  I think that is because it is somewhat oily. I look dirty if I don't wash daily.

Special-  I loved my color then, but I went dark (my natural color) because it was expensive to up keep.  Pretty much while planning this wedding, I've given up all of my luxuries.  I can't wait to get pedicures again.

AllAboutTheBenjamin

I confess I am really fucking annoyed with one of Ben's friends who was a GM in our wedding.  He married his wife in Jamaica on a DW and they are having an AHR type bbq thing back home.  It's apparently next weekend and we haven't been invited.

This wouldn't bother me TOO much except he did tell us he wanted us to come.  Yeah, well.  Kinda hard to come when we don't know when and where it is.  Fuckface

Matty143

Brandi- I went the opposite! My hair was dark for a really long time.
Once we got engaged, I decided I wanted to go back to my (more) natural color.

I'm sad for you that you are missing out on pedicures. : (
Hopefully you can treat yourself to one right before the wedding.

brandichamberlain

Matty- I LOVE your blonde hair. Gorgeous!  (you look great with dark hair too)

Matty143

Thank you Brandi!

AATB- that would make me mad too.

Lol.  True true.

I think its because of the sn's starting with S

brandichamberlain

Dot- luckily I'm not a nail biter, but I hate the thick feeling of acrylic nails.  I have really long and thick nails to begin with and I get so crazy about keeping acrylics clean underneath.

DodgersBride

I have done so much crap to my hair that i am surprised I still have hair. It falls out a ton and like AATB I have to use a swiffer to get it all. I love it now though. I wear it the same way almost every day and only wash twice a week.

[QUOTE]In Response to Re: Confessions? : I don't like it either so I have them done really thin.  Actually<strong> technically I switched to fiber glass</strong> a while back because it is stronger and so they can do it thinner.  I love your hair color Matty.  I dye mine blonde but have trouble getting it that light because my natural color lifts with a lot of gold.  After the wedding I am cutting it short and am probably going to go red for a change.

I've never heard of this. I'm curious, is it a powder, gel? Tell me more

And thank you, a good friend does it for me.
With what I "know" of your personality, I can see you as a red head :)

[QUOTE]I wash our sheets once a week. Also, we have sex a few times a week, but I never want to do it right after I've changed the sheets. My H has not yet caught on to the timing. He just thinks we don't have sex on Thursdays.
Posted by specialk84[/QUOTE]

I'm still reading, but this cracked me up! Sounds like something I would do, and if we do have sex, I;m always yelling after "dont get it on the sheets"!

DodgersBride

I think my work is going to do another pay cut soon or a big layoff. We had a company wide about 4 years ago. We were told that we should get the money back within a year or two. We haven't and pretty much everyone knows we are not getting it back. Right before the cut we also had about 75 layoffs. We have probably had about 100 or so since then.

I got a promotion and a raise recently. If we have another cut I will probably lose what raise I received. I talked to FI a little bit today over lunch and I told him that if we get a cut I will more than likely want to leave my company.

brandichamberlain

Dodgers- that stinks.  Are you in a profession that you might be able to get another job fairly easily if that does happen?

Girlie1030

Dodgers, that really sucks.  Have you been putting feelers out about other job opportunities?

[QUOTE]In Response to Re: Confessions? : It is powder just like the acrylic.  It is pretty common where I live.  Some places don't even offer acrylic any more here. 
Posted by Dot Dash[/QUOTE]

Oh OK. So its just better for your nails? ETA: and thinner, like you said.
My nail tech told me that they hardly have anyone asking for acrylic anymore.

I love the gel polishes that they have now. My nails feel as strong as they did with acrylic.

NicoleSahara

I always confuse special and mkrupar. Not sure why. And calaxtine and chelsea because they have the same avatar.

That sucks Dodger, I hope it works out.

DodgersBride

I have given some thought a while back but then when the opportunity came up for a promotion I stopped. Right now I am in our accounting department doing our invoicing and commissions. Before I worked our front desk, which is a pretty much do just about anything and everything position.

Matty143

I'm sorry Dodgers.
From my experience, the accounting department is the last place they tend to look for layoffs.

So far that has been true. Right now I am working my current position and helping out whenever they need it at my old one. So hopefully I am ok.

ZombieNates

I'm sorry to hear about your job loss, Koda. 

I confess that I hardly ever wear underwear, either, and always wear dresses. I always worry about fainting and having my dress ride up, but it doesn't stop me from going underwearless. Meh.

I've been buying a shitton of makeup lately, too. I don't have enough space for it all.

Well I'm glad to hear that. Thats smart of you to get involved in as much as possible.
Koda makes a great point too. Just update the old resume and get your feelers out there.

I confess that I just don't get not wearing underwear. I don't know what more to say without getting too gross and TMI about it.

Not to get TMI, but when you dont get periods, you dont have an issue with the "grossness" that happens throughout your cycles ;)
