Dinner And A Movie
So, for our five year anniversary, Mike and I got a penthouse suite in Dayton this weekend. Nothing super wonderful happened to be honest. We went to La Comedia on Saturday evening where we saw “Steel Magnolias” which rocked. I’ve never seen the movie or anything which is probably a good thing. Apparently the movie and the play is completely different. But Mike really seemed to enjoy it which was really the point of the whole evening. :) They also had their world famous Sweet Potato Souffle. I have to tell you that I don’t really care for sweet potato souffles. But, seriously, you have to make it. Just the souffle alone taste like candy let alone the topping. I didn’t eat the topping ’cause of the nuts in it but, YUM! So I’m gonna have Mike make it this weekend and I’ll prolly end up eating the whole thing by myself……moooooo.
Saturday afternoon Mike and I went to the Dayton Mall. I was tipped off by Dell that they started taking orders for their laptops with Vista installed on them. All of a sudden angels sang down from the Heavens and we all rejoiced. I can finally get rid of this piece of crap laptop from Acer and get something decent. So, anyways, to the mall we went and was looking around for computers. Didn’t buy anything but found the laptop that I wanted at the Dell Kiosk and I got to play around with it prior to buying it online for a LOT cheaper then through the kiosk.
So anyways, at the mall, we entered through the Macy’s entrance. Now, I love Macy’s. I love their clothes and their prices; it’s just fabulous. However I was greeted with something that scarred me for life.
Their makeup artists.
I was walking buy the makeup counter and looked over and, to my dismay, they looked like Bozo the clown sat on their faces. Most of the male and female makeup artists had their hair colored red (and not natural red, we’re talking Kool Aide Red), their makeup on WAY too heavy, and the guys had mohawks. Ohhh, and one of the girls had her hair crimped.
Crimped.
I said that a second time because I wanted the full shock to strike you in the face as you toss around in convulsions. Crimped hair was the most heinous crime. The person that developed that hair style, I’m sure, is being punished in this life or their next one…or possibly both. They should be prosecuted for war crimes at the International Criminal Court in the Netherlands.
Oh yea, and a simple make up tip everyone….less is more. This is a rule that is old but stands the test of time. Looking like a hooker is bad, looking polished is good!
And mohawks. I’m not even sure I have to say anything about that.
So the next time that you feel it appropriate to make yourself look like Bozo’s concubine…please, please think of the other people that has to cast their eyes on your crimped hair.
