Austin Powers

This evening I am going to get my first ever facial. And not only that, but it’s going to be a laser facial. I know it sounds scary. But before you picture my face being burned off leaving me with bacon for skin, I’ve done research about it and it’s perfectly safe and pain free. It’s also $250 off the normal price thanks to Groupon. So wish me luck. I’m off to get zapped!

“Lasers”

UPDATE! It’s over! And I still have a face! It didn’t hurt at all really. It just feels like something warm shining on your face. It is a little scary when you first smell burning, but they explain (and show) that it’s just your facial hair that’s burning. Hmm nothing quite like the smell of charred peach fuzz.

As far as results, all I really notice right now is a smoothness to the face and smaller pores. I don’t know what I really expected to happen (I walk out looking like Angelina). Even the lady that worked on my face had some wrinkles and blotches. I sort of expected her face to look flawless given that she does this kind of thing for a living. OR maybe she’s actually 109. Looking 55 isn’t so bad anymore. Now THAT would be impressive and I’d definitely do this again. Guess I’ll never know.

Jack in the box suitcase.

We got back from Santa Barbara last Sunday, but my suitcase still sits on the floor packed. I’m pretty bad about unpacking my things. Randy’s really good about it. He’ll unpack sometimes as soon as we walk in the door. I’d rather go to bed. So what happens is this is:

The Unnecessarily Slow-Moving Unpacking Process

Sunday night: Get home put suitcase on floor.

Monday: Look at it.

Tuesday: Look at it and think “maybe I should unpack.”

Wednesday: Look at it and think “I’ll unpack this weekend.”

Thursday: Unzip it.

Friday: Rummage through it to find something to wear.

Saturday: Find Jack napping in it and think about unpacking again.

Sunday: Wait for a long phone call to distract me while I finally unpack. (If this doesn’t happen a glass of wine works too.)

I can’t help it. I’m going to watch it. Hopefully KStew will be awkward again this year and drop her award, or maybe even better, trip and fall down. (Oops I fell over and over again…)

If you watched any of these movies as much as we did, then you totally get that title. If not, you probably had a life :)

ultimate90smoviesWhat girl didn’t want Cher’s digital closet?? I was obsessed with that thing! I still want it. But I think my favorite movie of all was Austin Powers. Good lord we would quote that movie all day long. Here are a few to jar your memory. Your evil memory.

“Begin the unnecessarily slow-moving dipping mechanism!”

“I like to see girls of that…caliber. By ‘caliber,’ of course, I refer to both the size of their gun barrels and the high quality of their characters…Two meanings… caliber…it’s a homonym…Forget it.”

“There’s nothing as pathetic as an aging hipster.”

“As the French say, that certain ‘I don’t know what.”

“The details of my life are quite inconsequential. My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low-grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a 15-year-old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink, he would make outrageous claims, like he invented the question mark. Sometimes, he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. My childhood was typical, summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring, we’d make meat helmets. When I was insolent, I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds. Pretty standard, really.”

CRV Photo Shoot

moneyshot

The CRV and I had a hot photo shoot down by the Marina today. We’re putting him up for sale. So if anyone’s interested in this beauty, contact me. He’s been a great car, but it’s time to say goodbye. Here’s how the photo shoot went down. (To be read with a British accent like this.)

crv_photoshootI apologize if I’ve scared anyone. Someone may have slipped something in my Izze this afternoon.
