Yeah, the make up is always a bit much, but modelling can be quite a fun experience. Hope you enjoy it!
Thanks! I never ever wear any make-up at all so this will be quite different from the usual for me.
I’m sure I’ll post a picture of the final project whenever it happens.
I seem to have agreed to help out my photography student co-worker with her final project.
She wants to do contrasts between our actual selves and opposite personalities.
However, she can’t decide yet if she wants to make me Victoria-Secret-Model-Sexy or an extra from “The Stepford Wives.”
Either way, its way more make-up than I’m normally used to.
Two steps to bikini ready body:
1. Look in the mirror and say “Bitch, I’m fabulous.”
2. Don bikini.
Every time I read about Mitt Romney not being capable of courting the unmarried woman vote, I get Beyonce’s “Single Ladies” stuck in my head.
I want a bumper stick that says “Single Ladies for Obama.”
I would put it on my car.
The institution of marriage is not under attack as a result of the President’s words. Marriage was under attack years ago by men who viewed women as property and children as trophies of sexual prowess. Marriage is under attack by low wages, high incarceration, unfair tax policy, unemployment, and lack of education. Marriage is under attack by clergy who proclaim monogamy yet think nothing of stepping outside the bonds of marriage to have multiple affairs with “preaching groupies.

“It’s important to clarify that sex education that teaches about pleasure doesn’t have to teach about technique (though elective college-level sex education that does this is great). Letting teens know that women usually achieve orgasm through the rubbing of the clitoris, whether fingers, mouth, object, or penis, isn’t the same as screening an instructional video on giving good cunnilingus. It’s not the same as writing down the names of sex-toy shops on the blackboard, or handing out diagrams of cool and exciting coital positions. And teaching that lubricants reduce pain and increase safety and pleasure during many kinds of sex should be thought of not as performance advice, but on par with vital lessons about condom use.
Real sex education is not the same as porn education. Instead, it’s about teaching that pleasure is an important part of any sexual relationship. It’s about teaching that there is nothing wrong with wanting to feel sexual pleasure and seeking it out, so long as it is done safely and responsibly. It’s about teaching comfort with one’s body and a lack of shame over desires, and there is more to sex for all people than sticking penises into vaginas. Real sex education teaches how to go about making intelligent , safe choices, rather than just stating the choices available. I believe there is a big difference. And I believe that teaching teens to make smart choices about sex must involve teaching them that having sex, partnered or alone, can be a smart choice”.

Voicemail is fixed (apparently).
Had a nice chat with a 8(?) year old girl about Angry Birds and smartphones while I waited.
Not used to having kids just decide I’m a good conversation partner though.
