recappers

merry christmas by the way. this is what nova looks like now. no, i don't know what's going on with that miniature head on that fat body. dear tiff,
remember when we were best friends and we lived together and every time either one of us would come home the other one would pretend to be asleep in whatever position they happened to be in?
tiffany taught me the biggest most important rule in makeup, back when it wasn't as obvious: choose either the eyes or the lips, never EVER both.
i recently found out my bona drag stock/shipping room is haunted. that room is always about 15 degrees colder. i'm pretty sure he lives in the closet because sometimes he won't let me open the door. i took this spooky picture of our house around halloween time:
