My dad bought a new truck this week! It's a dark grey Ford Ranger. I took him to the dealership yesterday to pick it up. They had just gotten in a new shipment of Saleen Mustangs...drool! It's a beautiful truck w/extended cab. He got it to replace his 14 y/o Ranger that he calls his "faithful burro." I'm excited for him. He still hasn't taken me for a ride in it.

Mom got back from SC on Saturday. Nephew is fully recovered from his ear surgery, yay! Mom's got to go have her car fixed where the basketball goal fell on it. There's a minor dent near the top of the windshield. Thank goodness no windows were broken.

I need a haircut this week! Split ends everywhere! I think I'm going to go shorter with the layers around my face. I've contemplated some long-ish bangs that I could sweep to the side, but I think that I'll go with shorter layers first, then progress to bangs if I want to (and if I'm brave enough).

Currently, I'm lusting after the new AL lipsticks. I'm trying to limit myself to one order per month, but I might have to make an exception for the new lippies, hehe.

I also can't wait to place an order with I Kick Shins! I've got my eye on some of the curly falls in green & some Manic Panic streaks in red & purple. One of the lovely ladies at the AL forum introduced me to this site.

I got my most recent AL order on Thursday but didn't really get to play with it until today. I got a bunch of Pure Rouges, Perle powders, and samples of the eyeshadows that are being discontinued. :( The finishing spray was on sale, so I went ahead and picked that up. I really like it so far; it sets the minerals nicely and smells divine. I use it after applying my foundation, finishing powder, blush, and eyeshadow but before liner & mascara. I also bought the tapered cheek brush. It was a little smaller than I expected (I read the measurements on the site, I guess I'm just used to a bigger, fluffier blush brush). It's a little bigger than the large blender e/s brush, same texture. It's been good for blush so far, it picks up & holds the minerals very well. I have the AL fiber optic blush brush w/the silver handle (which they've since replaced with a different f/o brush) which is great for intense shades like the rocks! rouges and shades that are dark compared to my complexion, but I wanted a bit fuller coverage & heavier application for the lighter Pure Rouges & Pure Blushes.
