characters keep you awake at night?

You know that it is mostly women who pressure themselves when it comes to makeup. I generally have a no or very little make up rule except when I am speaking to a crowd under bright light. A girl has to have her limits, however, I was on a no makeup Sunday a few weeks back. Bumped into my girlfriend's mother who told me I look tired (translates as "you look like hell") and that I "should be wearing more war paint". I was dumbfounded. She's about 65 years old, and can really apply the pressure! pale

Lighting and facial expression can also make a big difference. I try to smile a lot. It takes a lot less energy to smile than frown, so you could call me lazy, I guess.

Out here in the boonies, I have very little call to wear any makeup. One day I stopped at our little store (the only one for 25 miles!) in full war paint. The guy behind the counter took one look and said "Wow! You got a hot date?" And I didn't think anyone would notice.

Well George, all I can say is, I'm not your kind of girl. I didn't wear any makeup on my wedding day -- apart from my Max Factor Erace under my right eye to cover my birthmark. This is the makeup my husband didn't want:

affraid

He just wanted me. Still does.

Make up aint much good to you out in the moors in the Highlands in the middle of winter. That's probably why I never got into the habit of using the stuff. Any bikini shots in there?

I don't have any of me in a bikini for you either. Oh well. Enjoy your evening Shelagh, you're a good friend and I consider it an honour to call you such.

Today, I received a request to write a feature about how I self-published my book. I'll be working on it for the rest of the evening. I'm quite excited about it. See you tomorrow.

That is great news, Shelagh. I'm sure your excitement will shine through.

I thought the highland fellas liked to run around in plaid, not bikinis. If they aren't then I better let my folks know - they're south right now but heading in to Scotland next week and I think she was hoping to see something other than nobby knees (or are they knobby knees?). characters keep you awake at night? - Page 3 402987

How very handsome you look, George! If you are traditional, I know what's under it. I think Pam's mother may be hoping for a stiff breeze!

Yes exactly like that George. You look very fetching in your kilt, I must say. I do know what not supposed to be under it, but if your winter has been anything like our winter, somewhere is a pair of woolen undies that'll also hold a portable heater.

You have lovely knees by the way. Nothing nobby about them. Very Happy
