Going out.
Feb. 2nd, 2008 06:14 pmI've not been doing a lot since Christmas, which was a family time mostly and so difficult to be me that I got out of the habit. But right now I'm trying to type while waiting for my nail varnish to fully set and I'm going to get dressed and go out this evening to a Scunner gig. I was going to go see St Trinian's but that will be playing later.
I got myself back into Elaine mode yesterday by mooching around the makeup counter at Boots in search of freebies. I really like these little gift bags full of tryout stuff that I can play with without shelling out on full-price makeup that I can't afford and don't know how to use. Aha! but you still have to buy stuff...? No.7 have just produced a range of skincare for men, and my skin is still totally masculine, so I now have cleanser and scrub and shaving stuff that I needed anyway, and they also have a giftie for the girls if you buy more than £20. This has the nail varnish and other goodies that I am going to road-test this evening, with a pretty top I got from the sale rail in Monsoon this afternoon.
In other news I think my bum is getting bigger on these hormones. One pair of jeans and some pairs of knickers are definitely tighter. This is fair enough because the knickers are size 12 and the rest of me is size 18. If I keep my weight steady or better yet lose the half a stone (and the rest...) that I put on over Christmas, that will mean that fat will be transferring around and making mine a more shapely figure.
