Hair be Gone

(Taboo subject ahead)

I was born with a lot of hair…especially on my head (which is good), but also when it came to ‘brows and my lip (which is not so good). Thankfully, my Mom recognized at en early age that it just wasn’t fair for her gorgeous daughter to be walking around with a unibrow so I began getting my ‘brows and lip waxed at the tender age of 13…THANK YOU MOM!!!!!

I still go and get waxed every 6 to 8 weeks, but when life gets a little hectic, Sally Hanson Wax Strips are the bomb! I only use them to keep my lip fuzz free, but you can also use them for any type of unwanted hair situation…then also hurt a lot less than the hot wax, which is another bonus.

Mirror, Mirror

Sarah has posted on our monthly Keno games before and this was the hot item that was stolen out of many hands at our last game. I mean what girl doesn’t need a mirror in her purse that also is so funny it cracks her shit up everyday?  I mean we could all use a little humor in our lives. AMIRITE?

I <3 SusyJack*

Court is back again with my latest obsession.  Why don’t we use more clothes pins?  I was just pondering that idea the other day when I stumbled upon this site.   This site carries modern, simple pattern office and paper good.  I am loooovin on it.  Call me McLovin??

Most, if not all of the products found at  SusyJack*  come in in 3, 6, or even 9 patterns or colors which is just plain neat!  Not only are their throwbacks bad-to-the-ass, their calendars and common office goods are super eye catching.

  1. Arrow Clips
  2. Wall Calendars
  3. Organizer Magnets
  4. Notebook
  5. Cartlettes
  6. Pencil Cups

Vera Bradley, The New and Improved

I used to work in a small gift type store while I was in school that sold Vera Bradley and I have to admit that I wasn’t a very big fan. It was on the expensive side and reminded me of a purse my grandmother would carry or something. I guess it was the quilting. But, MAN. I don’t know if I’m getting older or if they are getting better because I LOVE this stuff I am seeing lately.
