I ordered a new Besame lipstick. :O See, I've been thinking about Portrait Peach since it came out: it seems like exactly the shade from Mad Men that I'm always trying to find cheaply. Cheap versions always turn out the wrong color, or they come off after five minutes. So it's probably best just to splurge and get the good one. I'd also just gotten the email about the promo - buy anything for full price and get the free perfume sample set. I smelled 'em all in Ohio and only bought 1910 because the others seemed too smelly, but now I'm more used to wearing scent and I might find the others more pleasant now. Anyway.

Also a pair of boots from Thursday Boots, the Captains in black. I really prefer the natural brown, it has that nice shading, but I really need these for winter wear and I always wear dark tights and dark clothes in the winter. Probably some people could pull off the brown with that, but I can't. Dad owes me a pair of boots from last Christmas, so.

I lost my head and wrote this long-ass, sad, and somewhat wild Left-eat-Left thing elsewhere and probably sounded mad, but ... I really wanted to say it, so it's probably a good thing that I said it.

I'm working on creating into/outro music for AMBA with public domain music. I really like the Maxixe, the Chrysanthemum, the scherzo from this string nonet ... honestly, all the Joplin on this site. Grande Valse Brillante. Well, this is a lot to think about now.

Interview is scheduled for next Friday, I need to book bus tickets. Oh lord, I need a vacation.

Have you bought any Besame lipsticks before? I want to try them because they seem really awesome and I think it would be fun to have a vintage colour.

Yes, I have the Victory Red. They last really well - it's a cross between a hard-wearing lipstick and a lip stain, so even when some of it rubs off the color's pretty much still there. $22 is a lot of money for a lipstick, but the quality is there. (OTOH, when you make a little slip while putting it on, it's a pain to clean it up.)

Good to know! Thanks! I'm considering getting the blood red. I don't have anything really dark and I think it'd be fun. :)

Good luck with the interview! And the bus. And everything else around it.
