In Which Estee Lauder and Maybelline Are Confused…
Randi’s site offered up this challenge: In the spirit of encouraging each other and having a good laugh, post a picture of your "real life", your "real house" or your "real self" on Monday, February 27 and add one surprising fact about yourself. (Nothing gross, rude or embarrassing, just surprising!)
Ha. No problem. Lotsa Real Life around here. Start with this not entirely messy drawer – we’ll get to the Real Life in a minute:
Not too bad. But look closer. Do you see a problem? Maybe two items that look a little too similar?
Now, Pop Quiz Time. Which one is the Estee Lauder perfume Pleasures stick, and which one is the Maybelline lipstick-like substance in a Really Really Ugly Color I Never Wear? Can’t tell, can ya?
Neither could I. (Yeah, it looks even worse on my mouth.)
Now that’s a little Real Life.
And here’s a little more.
That’s actually a baby bath seat BURIED in the dirty clothes, crying out for help. I’ll get to it tomorrow. (Or not.)
Surprising fact, per Randi’s instructions. Hmm.
Last week someone asked for my Embarassing 80s Crushes, when a mention of Scott Baio came up. So ok, here goes. These are especially bad. Not even run-of-the-mill bad, just baaaad.
Kenny Rogers
Sean Connery
Theo Huxtable
Henry Winkler
The guy with the HUGE beard in the Oak Ridge Boys
uh huh, really.
Now go to I Have To Say… to see more dirty laundry and Real Life!
I love you.
