also, im planning on picking up a new pair of glasses this summer and would like to take some suggestions! dont worry about color/shape, just post some frames you think are cool if you please!
For a lower budget option if you want some cheapo glasses you can just muck around with, zenni optical does glasses at around $20-30 a pair and while they're hardly the best glasses I've ever had in my life they are totally wearable and considering I've paid more for a manicure than I paid for my primary pair of glasses I certainly cannot complain. If you order from them, do get the anti reflective coating though, or you'll be able to clearly see your eyes reflected back at you when you wear them. I bought these without the E and I like them for the price.

ladies
the destinations for my and Blake's US trip are: LA, Seattle (PAX! ), Boston, New York
IF YOU LIVE IN ANY OF THESE PLACES OR WILL BE NEAR ANY OF THESE PLACES WE SHOULD TOTES HANG OUT
The other thing about cologne shopping is take a lady with you. Not your mom but a lady who you would like to sex or are sexing. I have absolutely no sense of how things smell on me, I've picked colognes out that I liked the smell of and had ladies go "man that's just no good." Don't trust your own nose, you're not wearing it to smell yourself.

Guys seriously
I have been looking forward to my haircut all week
Also I love the short but I need the longer bangs to frame my face (also why I love long dangly earrings)

I definitely wear perfume to smell myself
And I'm sure you smell great, girls pretty much always smell great. Guys, by contrast, get sold these overpoweringly weird musky things and we're dumb and clueless and go I guess that's ok? And then spend the next week repelling everyone until they figure out what's going on. I honestly don't care what I smell like, so long as it's appealing to other people.
I am watching say yes to the dress: bridesmaids and I am horrified that people have to shell out hundreds of dollars for dresses they hate! if you are making your bridesmaids buy a certain dress at least pay for it, jeeeeez. also on this particular episode the bride has her seven year old sister as her maid of honor, and her 25 year old sister as just a bridesmaid, and chose the dress based on what would suit the seven year old. bizarre.
Yeah apparently it can get pretty costly to be a bridesmaid.
Yes. In the UK it's customary to pay for everything for the bridal party, but for some reason in the US the bridal party's expected to help with and fork out for all kinds of crazy stuff! And it's supposed to be an honor...
I think part of it comes from the fact that usually if you have a sister (or several) they are part of the wedding party. So either they fork over money for their own dress to help out or the parents of the bride do.
But if you're asking your bridesmaids to pay for their own dress then you should keep the cost down and the look that you want flexible. I think being set on a color, as long as it's flattering on everyone and not something super crazy, is fine. But I think you should at least attempt to find something that your bridesmaids will get a use out of later. Though that never seems to happen.
@Metzger Meister I'm really sorry to hear that! How are you feeling?

well, I'm not gonna pretend that I'm not bummed out, but I figure that everyone deserves to be with someone they wanna be with, and more than that, that both he and I deserve to be with someone eho wabts to be with them. I'm just gonna be mature about it, I guess.

Well, reality television is where our society puts the people that are just distinctly strange enough that we can reflect on ourselves and say, "At least I am not that other," but not so crazy that we risk feeling some kind of pity, remorse, concern for societal standards, or psychological abruption in response to their lives.
Anyway, I desperately need a haircut. I'll try to post some before and after pictures this week so I can resign myself to spending $50 on something that'll last 2 months at best.

Yet another reason why @Stareosarus is rad. She said "buy a dress that YOU LIKE in this color. Buy an inexpensive dress that you will wear again." Also navy is an awesome color on me so that's always good.

Might need to make a new beauty thread for it, because I'm pretty sure your hair will take up the next 65 pages if you post it.

That is a very mature way to look at it. I'm glad that you're able to look ahead. Things will work out.
Okay here is (a shitty picture of) RAD NEW HAIRCUT
Also today I learned that my iPhone FUCKING SUCKS at taking pictures. EDIT WTF THAT ISN'T EVEN THE SAME EMOTE
Firstly, you look fantastic, you can really pull off the short hair look.
Secondly, iPhones are super good at pictures and I don't wanna suggest that its user error ir anything buuuuuuuuutttt...

Yes because clearly I don't know how to take photos
Nope that's what is most likely here
Seriously, though, I think the camera in my iPhone may be messed up. I'm noticing that it tends to take blurry photos when it really as no excuse to be so blurry. If it were a DSLR I would say the shutter speed is too slow for the light conditions.

I have to admit I can't quiiite picture what you're looking for, sheri! looking forward to pictures when you get it done!
Like a baby seal

Blake really wants to go and he's never been so that is why we are making the stop

Natural pheromones are the way to go.
You will know this by all the fly honeys that congregate around me at all times.

this is one from earlier in the thread when it's short:
this is what it looks like now, and I am pretty bad at self pictures because this really was the best one:
but I don't really know what to do with it when it's longer since usually all I do is mat it down with my hand.

Remember to get me something.

Maybe the metering is messed up on it.
