Oh, look, a cockroach."

Can we do that thing where you give me a subject and I list TOP 5? Please? Because I'm bored, and needs should definitely be met. As long as it doesn't require ointments the next day.

Five favorite shades of lipstick?
I don't wear make-up. Ever. Last time I wore lipstick it was Halloween and I was 16. It was black.

Thank you for participating in this bid to keep tkp entertained. Image hosting by PhotobucketThis guy will come bring you your brand new rug to show our appreciation.

Ooh, very interesting choices in historical figures. And the last three on your cities list would be on mine as well. I'm assuming the first two have a more personal significance?

I know the shade "harlot" from Buffy. I don't know if I'd like it. I generally stick to gloss.

Your participation rewards rock my socks.

Traverse is near where my Granny lives. SHe actually lives out in the country, near a neat little town that's my favorite town in the world (Leland, it's called). But I felt guilty calling it a city so I just put the closest city.

Norwich was where I studied when I was abroad. University of East Anglia.

I was thinking about putting the harlot shade down. And wasn't there a trollop shade mentioned several times in Gilmore Girls? Did I dream that?

I'm glad you like the rewards. Guess it shows I'm really, really bored. Actually, there are other things I should be doing, I just want to waste time.

Ooh! Yeah, I remember the trollop thing now. Lorelai made Emily wear it on one of her "trying to get Emily to loosen up" adventures.

*sigh* There are many things I should be doing now, too. I'm under the impression that half of my brain is asleep at the moment, though, so for now I'm on the wasting-time train too.

I never wear make-up either. I am non-girly to a fault.

I think rug guy is Jesus going incognito.

Rug guy is Lebowsky! Though he could be Jesus incognito.

Yeah, I'm not girly either. Not because I don't want to be. Sometimes I really wish I liked shopping or spent more time on my appearance. But I just can't be bothered.

I'm mortified that I didn't recognise Lebowski. I love that movie. I love almost all the Coen brother movies in a big, big way. Even the ones I didn't understand.

And I can't be bothered either.

I love most the brothers' movies, too. I haven't seen the Arizona one with Nicolas Cage. O Brother has to be one of the best movies ever.

Raising Arizona is hysterical. A bugs bunny cartoon come to life.
