Sometimes I buy fake eyelashes in hopes to finally to put them on my eyes properly. I watch youtube videos where girls do it - pufff - like magic. Bam! And fake eyelashes are there on their places. Inspired, I grab my set, try to stick them, and in seconds throw them across the whole room spewing curses.
Maybe some of you have good hacks?

LMAO u sound like me. I recently just tried the magnetic ones. I got them from CVS and the brand is Ardell Professional. I tried them once and they actually stuck on and they weren't to big for my eyes. Anyways it was amazing to actually get them on for once but in all honesty I don't think I like how I really look with them on. Personally I like how mascara makes my real eye lashes stand out.

I think i had the best luck cutting them and only putting a falsie on the outer half of my lid. Much easier to position that way, and they stay on better, since the lash doesn't have tension pulling up on opposing sides, if that makes any sense at all.

Kinda disappointed. I kinda won and kinda lost a small matter of contention with the tow company. They don’t want you to wear hats that aren’t company issue, though they don’t worry about beanies and such so long as they’re plain or the only logo they have is the manufacturer logo. The only place I really wear a ball cap type hat is the shop, and I have a rather worn Carolina Tar Heels hat I wear there. If it’s not cold enough to wear a beanie, I’ll do my usual and either wear a bandana or headscarf. So I found this cute pirate themed bandana at a gas station last week.

54821

And I’ve been wearing that for the last couple days. And the supervisors don’t approve. I managed to win in that I’m not stuck with wearing their hat or no headgear at all, but they say the skull and crossed sabers are a bit much, and I’ll have to wear a more plain one.

Are your eyelashes curly? Mine are and so I can never get strip lashes on easily because my lashes curl back up and over my lash line.

:(....I'm not sure if I should get this dress. I've been rotating between like 4 dresses and forget who has seen which dress. I no longer show up in lingerie. Just sundresses but I think this is pretty. Would you pass on this dress or is it on the "too much" scale and get a nice dress from Target or a discounted dress off of Poshmark?

Also I'm angry at Dua Lipa's music haha. She is the only artist who releases a song and every single time I think "man her songs are declining"...but then a month or so later her song is on repeat nonstop for me. I play all her hits to this day and don't get tired of them. Her levitating song has just made my playlist which means I'm playing the crap out of it lol!

Men who think they are sex coaches. I made 30,000 this month from posting all the time (who knows if it will slow up severely) and was asked if I learned to give head yet and he could help me get more business. HUH?!!! I missed out on more appointments because I was at home or sleeping not because I suck in bed? Just because you have dick issues doesn't mean I haven't gotten off men without a problem and I even asked what you liked? Whatever. If I haven't learned over 10 years of dick sucking as my job I'm screwed.

Obviously a portion is going to bills but don't act like your sex issues are mine when I'm very willing to help.

BD felt the need to use the leaf blower because the magnolia tree in the backyard dropped some flowers. He ended up ruining my tulips in the process. When he leaves I am going to find an adult tree to have installed in front of the house. The leyland cypress trees are only 1 ft tall right now and they're not tall enough to block out nasty neighbor yet.

After watching the documentary on Elizabeth Smart I think about how I would've handled that at 14 years old. I can't imagine the guilt the parents had for having a homeless man working on their house just trying to be helpful only to have him kidnap/rape their daughter.

Random thought, why is it always the men who don't have the capability to send a message with correct grammar and spelling that are always the time wasters? "Hey u available bby?" "Hi" ...it screams to me that this person is cheap, refuses to have his information screened, wants to haggle my rate, or wants unsafe services. I'm usually right.

I wanted to be there for first day of Vegas re-opening clubs in a more normal operation lol.

I think I'll make between $575 - $725 at day job that day ( slight variation if I'm with clients 8 hours or 10-11 ) which could be less at the club depending on vibe / getting folks in ect. !
I hope to get out there between May 2-6 of the month.
If anyone has an amazing night on that first night please post!

I need to get my friend's frikin' placenta out of my damn freezer. It's been FIVE. YEARS. I remember reading about needing to ship placenta on dry ice at one point? But now I can't find any information on it. I feel like trying to ship human bio products falls under strict mailing laws and would be a no-no?

That's wonderful!!! Yes, i always looked a bit demented when I'd try to use a full lash, as each side would look a bit different, and it made the inner corners of my eyes look too heavy / older. Outer corner is the way to go, glad it worked for you! ♡

Britney Spears shaved her head that one time during a custody battle to avoid losing her kids for a follicle drug test. Wild that strangers who don't know her have the time to do this in public.

Thought this was really cool. I thought there was someone here interested in cyber security but didn’t have degree?

To summarize, some companies are hiring based on skill and not even asking about college degree. They say not requiring college degrees are way to promote equality.

how do you manage to attach them?

I'm sure I don't have the best method: I basically pull down on my lashes so that the lid is stretched out downward and thus (part of)the lash line is exposed, then I try to stick the middle section of the strip to the middle of my exposed lash line, then with that anchored I can let go of my lid and attach the other sections of the strip. It can take multiple attempts because the curly lashes can keep pushing the strip off if I can't get it anchored enough right away. Really I wish they made lash straighteners instead of curlers.

It's weird sometimes to talk openly to my partner about dancing hahaha ! We are not really into " the groove " of me working very often ( I only plan to work sporadically ). It was just funny last night when I told him why I went to this place 7-8 days ago ( because it was in a movie ) and about the fingerprinting process / hassle hahaha .

I hope this all isn't a too good to be true. I know he wouldn't be ok with me working like 4-5 days a week because it would cut into our quality time. I would hate if he worked evenings often too ! Hopefully it doesn't " turn " and he starts whining about it . I would be so bummed.

We both had a buzz on ( out on the beautiful now decluttered patio ) .
I was describing the " addicting " nature of getting paid quickly in cash ! Lol

We are flying to another city in 10 days and I want to work there for fun as well just 1-2 nights out of the trip. :)

I'm honestly confused by his lack of issue with it, at the risk of sounding weird! I mean, it's very possible that you've found the rare unicorn partner who truly understands that it's just work (I've been with a dude like that, but he was also aware of me dancing from the start of our relationship, it was non-negotiable, and we were somewhat non-monogamous). It just seems like he has to either be fetishizing it, or he doesn't have an issue with it because of some other reason (like he sees the relationship as more balanced now since he's 'giving you' the freedom to dance, after your unhappiness around the living situation). I mean, you told him about it a YEAR into your relationship for the first time, so it feels like it should've been a shock unless he's dated a dancer before or something. Or has he never been to a club, so he doesn't understand all that's involved in the job? Lol, just speculating... it's very possible that I'm WAY off-base.

^ He hasn’t been.
I suspect he doesn’t understand contact dances.

I don’t plan to work high contact anymore but have before.

I think it’s a bit fetishized too . I was researching clubs where we are headed in 10 days for his job and he said something about “ being a sex symbol “ . I don’t think he understands the high hustle nature and maybe that’s ok. I’d really just would like to work roughly once a week and make a few hundred average / not stress about pulling every dollar from peoples claws. I was aggressive before about earning because of the travel. Now my club is kind of close to us and I want to get to know that larger city better anyway.
When he travels for work the club I want is two miles from our hotel.

I think he IS progressive in many ways . He has been on the pro feminism side of many debates from early on ( sex work decrim. ect )!
I talk about women’s rights issues often .

Because of those issues where I always felt like I was pushing things forward ( basically offering to leave a couple times ) we had a low sexual energy Jan. - early April. There wasn't NO sex but it wasn't like our crazy amazing summer of love lol. It was more like once a week or twice v.s. a few days a week. It hurt ME too to have a low sexual vibe but I was hurting emotionally all the time. Now that he has approved my move in I'm happier and more settled. I have been working on just letting some things go ( I would go back to things at 7.5-8 months when he expected me to sleep alone 5 nights a week every other week and think he was crazy ). I'm so glad I offered him the non-monogamy only plan at that point if he didn't fix it and STOOD my ground.

We had a conversation a couple weeks ago where we decided to " reset " our aim and give both people the things they were looking for.

I think he is making the connection like " hey I have a partner who actually likes sex / exploring sexuality / AND preforming in a venue celebrating such " ! He is a thinker / intellectual. I hope he is making those types of connections.

Our lives got easier too. Instead of rotating days he now has his kid Sun - Tues. ( and the occasional Sat. )!
It's been a game changer ( easier ) .

I learned to be SUPER straight. If I want something I ask . He is a left brained engineer so he will usually give me what I want because it leads to such good things. He has been happy these last couple weeks as my libido has climbed again. :)

He also has things he is super discreet about ( interest in psychedelics + some fake it till you make it action to get his promotions ) that need to stay under wraps so he has that element of high discretion to him too.

Wow, I have never heard of that until you posted this. That sounds interesting but I'd be scared of something scary or creepy happening too. I'm pretty sure that there's a ghost in my house.

I'm sad about how much people mistreat fish. A couple of weeks ago I went into PetSmart to look for a dog bed and on one of the end caps, there were all these fish in little plastic cups smaller than a mug. They looked so sad and didn't even try to swim around I guess because they knew there was no point. The Betta fish I pet sat, his tank is super small. I got him a new one and took all the packaging off so I could tell his mom I got it for free off of NextDoor, but she didn't want it. And now tonight a restaurant I went into had a fish tank in the front lobby and the tank size was ok but they all looked SO hungry. They were all opening and closing their mouths constantly, swimming to the top of the tank and giving up and even eating the gravel. I said something about it to the staff but this one woman just said they're fed twice a day and they had already been fed that evening and weren't getting any more tonight.
