Plus, I want at least one or two shadows from Starflash (right now, I'm particularly contemplating Smoke and Diamonds, Mink & Sable and Lotusland). Gah! As I stand, I have four palettes. One for greens, yellows and highlighters, one for browns, oranges and reds, one for purples, silvers and pinks, and one for blues and teals. I don't even know how I'm going to do the next rearrangement. I could put highlighters in a quad for now, I suppose, as I only have four (blanc type, shroom, shore leave, solar white) and have that tide me over, but ugh... Not enough space! Anyone else have this issue?

Yes and it drives me CRAZY!!!

I keep telling myself I will not get another e/s unless it's worthy of dumping one I already own (so as not to increase my net total) but I never stick to the plan.

The thing that annoys me the most is how close I was. I had a ticket in my cart, went to check out, and it told me there was an error and to start over. It's supposed to hold whatever tickets you pick out for eight minutes. Mine, for some glitchy reason, didn't. And by the time I tried again, it was sold out.

How many palettes are you at?

AUDREY.... CONGRATULATIONS!!!

That is seriously wonderful news and I'm so happy for you and your family. I hope the boys have an easy time adjusting to the move, but I'm sure that they will. Little ones are more adaptable then we think. I also hope DH is happy with his new job! Yay for Bimbo magic!

One of my coworkers was trying to get Elton John tickets for her daughter, they had three computers going and two phone lines starting at 8:30 and no luck. My friend tried to buy tickets and it would only let her get one.

Yay Audrey! That's wonderful news! After the sickness go round, the fights with neighbours, fish with ich, failed trips to montreal, etc we needed a Bimbo celebration!

Thanks Katie! I haven't gotten a horrible migraine in the past week (knock on wood) which is nice! I also talked to the doc about the nausea from my new med and he said is was normal & it will pass.
I am having some hip pain though, so my doc looked at it today and he said the problem is Hip bursitis, which is where the sack called the bursa gets inflamed.

I just can't win, lol! It's not horrible pain, but it hurts...it was enough for me to mention it to him. So I get an X-Ray on Monday and I also got a refferal for physical therapy. So, tonight I am going to take some pills, drink some red wine and ice my hip & have my hubby take care of me!!

I did buy some more blue leg hermit crabs today. Scooter picked on them for a little bit, but they are all hiding now! he can be a ass when he's got no one to play with! The guy at the LFS said another 4-6 weeks than we can add some more fish!

I just don't know what!?

On a scary note my best girlfriend went to her doctor today & they found a lump in her breast! They are running tests, so hopefully we will know soon!! She is 31, so hopefully her age is on her side!! I love her with all of my heart. (I just had to put that out there!)

That's her & I a little over a year ago at our old job before it closed! That was the best job, it was a fishing tackle supply store! We got to goof off allllllllllllll the time! lol (sorry for the blurry pic)

What's with us bimbos and crappy health, anyway? You're not doing so hot, Adina's definitely not doing well, I'm never healthy... and that's just for starters, I know. THIS IS NOT COOL. WHY CAN OUR BIMBO MAGIC NOT FIX IT?

As for more fishes, all I have to say is: "pretty ones!"

 

[stv578]

Allison, hopefully the nausea will subside soon then! Glad your migraines are better.

So it's gonna be a long night for me tonight. I am wired at the moment and a little upset, so I wanna raid the fridge. DH is away again with work... again. But he also just found out he's got to go back to his old position because his manager there is a complete prick and wouldn't approve a request from his current manager to stay on at the current position he was doing (and loves). And it also means he won't be getting off work early like he has been to pick up the kids before 4, just when I'll be starting work again. It was one of the things that made me feel better about going back, that the kids wouldn't have to be in daycare for soooo long. And his current position also had the opportunity for a promotion, which of course would've been nice as well. So now I hate his old manager for screwing things up for us, and have caught myself calling him an a-hole in front of the kids. Oops! Sorry, just needed to vent, cause I sure can't say all this to a 2 and 3 yr old!

Let us know what happens on Monday. I think that you really deserve some red wine and to have your husband take care of you!!

When you get a chance if you can take pictures of the hermit crabs I would love to see them. Glad that Scooter is still doing well. When you get more fish you should get a few more clown fish unless that would make you sad.

I had a good friend who found a lump in her breast around that age and it turned out to be non-cancerous. I will send lots of good thoughts her way. With all of the advances in medicine she will be just fine. Keep us posted.

I hope it really is nothing, and that is often the case. I too had a lump in my breast that was discovered 3 yrs ago (i was 29), and it was absolutely nothing of real concern. I don't know the exact term, it's fibro something or other and a long word, but it's quite common in women at this age. Anyway, hope that's all that it is.

My camera isn't good enough to take pictures of these little guys so I stole this picture from liveaquaria.com


Mine have prettier shells thought!

That is really cute in an odd kinda way!

 

[Sanayhs]

On a happier note, I found a lip combination that I love - overrich lipstick, blast o' blue lipstick and vivacious lipstick! It turns into this really neat MLBB colour with some interesting depth to it, and it totally changes colours depending on the lighting.

There was a good size piece of scallop that Scooter didn't eat, so a crab hijacked it. But I can't leave in there for too long, because I wont be able to find it and it will rot (ammonia levels will go up). Anyways, I picked it up and he latched himself to it, I just shook it and he went flying across the tank.

But they are cute with there little antenna going 100 miles a minute.

Those are cute!

I wish I had the energy to have a fish tank. I swear it would give my cat hours of entertainment. Unfortunatley last time we had a beta fish Coach got on top of the fridge and ate half of him for lunch. It made me really sad because I loved Monkey (the fish).

I have a hard time finding use for my blast o blue lipstick. I might have to give that combo a try. Girl you need to find your camera! I would love to see some of your combinations!!

You would think that after living in a place for a month, I should be pretty much unpacked, right?

I haven't even emptied my suitcase. My boyfriend and I are terrible at this. Plus, the humidity? Makes me the girl-permanently-attached-to-the-couch.

I picked up blast o' blue simply because it's weird. I love playing with it with different warmer colours. It adds a really neat layer of sparkle to a lot of them, and of course can make for some lovely purple shades. Definitely not a colour I wear on its own (unless I want to look like I have hypothermia - oh baby, oh baby), but it's fantastic for making custom lip colours. I'm that girl that walks around with four different lipsticks on at a time!

Also, I have huge love for lustres and glazes just because of how moisturizing they are. Lustres, for me, are better than lipgloss for the condition of my lips. I swear I'm the only girl that cleans hotel rooms wearing a full MAC eye and MAC lipstick!

 

[purrtykitty]

Congrats Audrey and family!!

And yay for new crabs (that sounds really dirty!!)

Wish me luck, Bimbos...I have my final practice exam tomorrow. 200 multiple choice (or multiple guess as I call them) over 6 HOURS!! Thank goodness for a girls' night tomorrow night!

 

[coachkitten]

Good luck Karin! We are rooting for you and sending a little bimbo magic your way

!

 

[KikiB]

Woo hoo Audrey! See, bimbo magic DOES work! And a job with immediate medical is very hard to come by.

I got my Lancome palette today at Nordies...and I am happy cause I only got charged $39 for it! And I got extra mascara, Cils Booster, a shadow quad, and then I believe concealer/shadow base. Seriously though, you probably know Katie how cramped the Northgate cosmetic department is, but as one client said "half of Seattle was in there". I can only imagine how it was downtown...

I hope everything goes okay with your friend Allison. Breast cancer does not discriminate but let's first hope that it's benign. Early detection helps.

I know how it is though...being completely wired. I am having severe mood swings. Half the time at work I just wanted to cry-and it was my first time working in 6 days. Not good. They are really clamping down on us too which I hate.

I wish you all the best for the next months!!
