deathpixieThere's no ill a hot bubble bath with peppermint oil (for lightening the mood and clearing the head) and a chat with your mum can't cure. And if there is, a good hot cup of tea will see it off. ;)
Especially when said bath is had in conjunction with the cleansing face masque, removal of the stubble from your legs, and doing the first coat of your nails. I would have added a glass of red wine, only I have enough trouble putting on nail polish straight in the first place, and who knows where it might have ended up. Just too bad I never have any nails to speak of, what with karate and their habit of breaking once they reach a certain length. And I don't like those stick-ons - that's getting too damn fussy, if you ask me.
Just about to do the second coat, having had dinner (early, but then again I didn't have lunch). It's this lovely bloody shade of dark red, perfect for this character I'm getting into tonight. The preparation is actually becoming a bit of a production, but I'm enjoying it. It's been so long since I last put this kind of effort into what I looked like, and even though it's for a costume, not actually me, it's still gratifying.
Besides, I need to feel good about myself, and looking damn good is part of it.
*giggles* The sight of my nails on the keyboard is very distracting - they're all red and shiny...
Hmm, ought to get to that second coat, and then get dressed. Later, all.
