SA Wednesday
I got a call back from the Dr last night and my mole was just irregular. I got a lovely lecture both at the time of removal and last night that I am very fair skinned and have far to many freckles.
Also, this may be TMI but does anyone else suffer from a serious lack of energy when their time of the month comes. The last two months it has been really bad and whatever is working for me the rest of the month isnt during that time. Does anyone take any additional supplements or do anything different during that time or is it something that just comes with the territory?
Re: SA Wednesday
I'm glad it wasn't melanoma!
I'm always exhausted during my period. I don't take anything besides midol.
I have my microbiology lab practical today. I practiced a lot yesterday in the lab. So I am hoping I should be okay. But if you mess up one thing, or something gets contaminated, you automatically get a zero. No E for effort.
Summer- I hope you do well, hopefully your effort will pay off!
BL - So glad to hear it wasn't anything.
Summer - Good luck! I'm sure you'll do great
I realized I can't go to BABC for Brianna on Saturday becuase I forgot about a Formal Engagement for one of our Church girls Saturday. I hope someone else has a friend or someone who can go! I hate when I don't realize I've double booked. Time to get my calendar out and double check everything!

I really really like this purse from Express, but all the reviews say it stinks!
And seriously....that woman I was telling you about yesterday, the smoker, is really getting on my nerves. The front door to the office was locked when she got her. She said "How did you get in" I said "....my key......" She said "Oh, I don't have one" I said "no, only employees get a key to the office" And then about a month or so ago, she used like 2 spoonfuls of my coffee creamer. She said that she would bring me some to replace it. I said thanks, but no problem, it wasn't like you used it all. Then the next week, again, she said she still needed to bring me some, again, I said thanks, but its ok. And today, again (for like the 10th time) she mentioned it. And I said Thank you, but seriously you do not have to bring me any, you barely used any.
Sorry...but she just really gets on my nerves.
Why not tell her to bring some if it's the 10th time? We have this happen at our office too. We have a "pool" and as long as you bring coffee creamer once in a while then you can use anyone elses. If you keep telling her it's fine don't bring any she won't.

I don't want her to. I just want her to stop talking about it.
Oh yea...she just I dont know why I cant stop coughing this week? I'm like umm....maybe its the smoking??? Just a thought.

BL - Seriously good news that your mole was just irregular. Not to sound preachy but I really hope you listened when your doctor was giving you the lecture about you skin!
I'm trying to set up boudoir pics for our one year anniversary and trying to get someone to do hair and airbrush makeup for around $150 seems to be impossible. Most everyone wants to charge closer to $200 - $250. I paid that much for my wedding day hair and makeup and don't feel like wedding day and boudoir pictures are the same caliber. I don't know, I just don't think it should cost as much as my wedding look did.
Bio
I went to MAC in Nordstroms at Northpark for my makeup for the b pics I did. They charge $50 but you get $50 in products. I really loved the makeup. They did a beautiful smokey, sexy eye.
My wedding MUA charges $75 for non-airbrush wedding day makeup ($110 for airbrush)... might be less since it's not for a wedding and she wouldn't be going anywhere. Her studio is in Little Elm, not sure if that is too far for you though. www.ahmakeupartistry.com
BL - I'm glad to hear it's wasn't anything too serious!
Summer - Good luck today!
We were both pretty sore from the gym so we decided to take it easy and walk a mile with the dog this morning. It was really nice to be able to talk about random things.
Bio Good Times
1. If you want her to shut up about it, tell her to bring the creamer. Then she'll shut up about it.
2. My mom smoked for 40ish years and didn't always cough. Sometimes, smokers get sick too and they cough too just like everyone else.
I don't know if you like my hair and make up for the wedding, but Monika charged me $150 for hair and airbrush make up. I couldn't find her actual website but this is her facebook one.

My dad has smoked since he was a teenager and still smokes, he doesn't cough...I know. The womans drs are telling her she has got to stop smoking.
BL,
So glad that it was a plain and simple irregular mole and not anything more serious. I won't get preachy either....
Bill promised me at the beginning of the summer that he wouldn't let his alarm go off more than once in the mornings so that I could sleep in a little (I've still been getting up around 7 AM or so every morning). This morning it went off three times before 5:45 AM. I was just a bit annoyed and now I'm feeling a little grouchy.
I swore that I would never get hooked on some of these TV shows. I lied to myself.
Thanks you guys for the recommendations.
Tiffany, I had come across AH and didn't think she'd do my makeup since it wasn't wedding day, but I'll send her an e-mail.
Deepthi, I'll check your suggestions out too.
Brianna and Crystal (I think): If the first two don't work out I might just do the MAC counter and have my hair lady do my hair. I'm just worried about my sweating with the traditional makeup and if it will sweat away. That's the main reason I wanted airbrush.
I took both of the spots, so you are good.
BL - VERY glad to hear that! Good news!
I'm sad Borders is closing. I never buy anything from there as I just use Amazon so I know I am part of the problem, but seeing bookstores close always makes me sad.
Dream Analysis
BL - Great news!
Summer - You can do it!
I'm going to get my library card at lunch today and I'm excited about it.
I'm such a dork.
Renee - Where are you taking the pictures at? I am not really a huge Halo fan after the crap I went through with their MUA (although she wasn't working as an artist through them specifically for my wedding), but I know they do airbrush there. They are in Fort Worth.

BL - I'm so glad to hear your spot was irregular! That's great news!
Summer - Good luck!
MrsLynch - cute purse
Sara - Um that's a crazy dream... good thing you woke up and still had your teeth huh! LOL
So I went to bed with an eye twitch and woke up with it. I believe I need to get some good sleep tonight. UGH
I had a similar dream, only it was my niece's tooth (a permanent one). I woke up because I was hyperventilating in my dream.
Renee, I used Mac also and loved it. I also learned a little while I was there, because I asked her to tell me what she was doing at each step
Yay for the good news, BL!
Good luck, Summer!
We're going to see HP tomorrow night at Studio Movie Grill - yay, date night!
Maybe I will be the only one to say it, but I think that you are way too hard on this lady. It's her decision to smoke, so there's not much that you can say about it. Also, is there a policy pertaining to where employees are allowed to smoke? If not, you don't really have a say there.
I think that it's nice that she has mentioned bringing you creamer to supplement what you bought. I would probably offer my creamer up and ask her if she wants to switch off buying it. For example, she can use your creamer and you can use hers. I think that's very polite of her.
Maybe it's because I don't work with her personally, but I think that you should scale it back a bit when it comes to her. She actually seems pretty pleasant to me.

Brianna,
I'm doing them at Kristina's loft studio. She has a great backdrops and some props (bed and a big old fashioned tub).
I'll take a look at the link you gave me.
We did but we're going to do it when the bluebonnets are in bloom. There is a place no far from our apartment that would be great!
