Hey... what's wrong with my name? *pouts*

Also, I like your career choices. Good options. *g*

*de-lurks a bit*

The hairy italian thing. Shaving, waxing, bleaching, tweezing--the maintenance keeps going up as I get older. And believe me, I do the bare minimum. Time for laser hair removal, I think.

God, do I know where you're coming from. We Italians kick serious ass and are the coolest people in the world, but damn, do we pay for it.

Laser hair removal? Would that really work?

1. Purple flowered pajama bottoms.
2. Lemon Verbena perfume

No pyjama top? *snicker* *is 12*

I hope this means you like boys, because it's not so easy to find girls with the first two characteristics ;)

[mmmchelle.livejournal.com]

You know, sweetie, that lie was awfully easy to pick out./g/

[jenlev.livejournal.com]

i like the career choices, very good. and it's almost july and time for season 2, really, it really is. *sigh*

[thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com]

Oops! *g* No offense. I was just being silly. There was just this huge burst of them..in the early 80's, I think? It's really not a bad name at all.

That was a tough question for me, since it's not everything I've ever thought about.

As for the career choices, everyone needs to have goal, don't they? *g*

Re: *de-lurks a bit*

[thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah. I have lots of thick hair on my head which everyone things is so lovely, but the corollary is that I've got it everywhere else, too.

Laser hair removal does work, quite nicely. It's been around for a while. My coworker, who is of East Indian decent, had it done and said it was great. Much better than electrolysis. (ouch! That got old, really quick). Prices are coming down, too. One of these days I'm going to go for it.

[thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com]

You are so twelve. *g*

I had on a blue sweater, too. :P

[thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com]

Hee! Goody. ::runs and looks::

[thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com]

Yup--he's not an *everyday* essential. When I'm away, on a business trip, I still desperately need #1 and #2. Or else I get very cranky. *g*

[thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com]

Hee! That's a scary thought. ::looks at hands:: Eeep!

[thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com]

You know me too well. *g*

[thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com]

I'll let you know if I succeed at any of them. *g*

Re: *de-lurks a bit*

[miera-c.livejournal.com]

with you both on that. Plus my dad is Polish so my skin is really pale, which just accentuates the dark hair everywhere. bah!

[kalimyre.livejournal.com]

This makes me snicker, because I was born in the early 80's, so I guess I'm part of that rush. I was the only Heather in my school class, though--we had a lot of Misty and Jennifer. (Jennifer I get, but how can a person really be taken seriously with a name like Misty?)

[jenlev.livejournal.com]

hee! *g*
