Various and (almost) Sunday

Just a few notable things.

1.) I had the absolute BEST piece of cherry cheesecake on Friday. I mean, I quietly had an orgasm in the breakroom. It was just THAT good.

2.) I got a lovely notice from Lansing on Friday (so much for my cheesecake high :P). Apparently, if you have seven points on your driver's license, you have to pay the state $100. To which I say, fuck you Jennifer Grandholm, you greedy self-serving CUNT, I have leadfootitis.

3.) I worked a short day today, and in that time, I ran across two women with mustaches to rival Slughorn's. Do women not look in the mirror anymore before they leave the house? In this modern day and age, even if you can't afford electrolysis, there's always a fucking BIC and a bottle of Barbasol, yo.

4.) New iconses - yaye! Two new from [livejournal.com profile] petulantgod, one of which I'm sporting, and one from [livejournal.com profile] grrliz, soon to be used. Thank you both!

i don't know. i mean it's kinda weird seeing women with mustache's but at the same time, it's just social beauty like the legs thing, it's outside the norm. Why critisize them for the choice not to conform to it? it's their life. But it's a social taboo to be a hairy women or to be a fat women, but are we all not just people with insecurities and blemishes? The whole fucking human race is a blemish in my eyes. Be it a personality blemish or a beauty blemish.

I look into the mirror alot and think about my bad skin, how most people probably think i should "use creams" or maybe i should tan my sallow northern european skin? but why? to be some high kept matenence thing? Should i dye my hair every month or two weeks because it's unusual to be going grey at 20? It seems useless to me... it's not who i am physically or mentally.

I don't mean offense, i'm just very opinionated. things like this just upset me as an artist because i've seen the gamot. i've drawn the young, the old, the beautiful, the "ugly". let me tell you the "ugly" or unconventional are probably the most interesting to draw, to worship from afar. Dancers are half as fun, they just don't have the cracks, crevasas, shadows, and just the over all air.

I agree with you. Here's a photo of a talented woman who had a mustache and heavy brows and didn't care:
