Prop 8 - On-line petition - Show your love

So i'm not usually in-your-face with this kinda stuff, but last night we all witnessed a world-shift, one for the better. But in the state of California we incurred a few steps back with the passing of Prop 8. Please show your support by signing this on-line petition:

There is no reason to deny our friends, neighbors, families --everyone! rights that should be automatic.

Snogging: does a person good

i feel silly. i feel like i've known this since the begining of consciousness. It is a fact --one that has been sadly outta practice in my book as of late; people, we need to be kissed. Plain & simple.

i know, i know, no shit.

But seriously, after a night of ridiculous snogging with some 22ish(?!?)-year-old who i will never see again, my outlook is shiny (literally, my skin is glowing!). Sigh.

So i've been saying it for months; that i want to kiss someone. Wish granted, in spades!

So go out and kiss somebody, people. Or if you are with the one you're with, forgodssake, kiss her/him!

xxxx,

PS: Extra bonus, for those of you who know me, no outbreaks! of course, he was a baby, so.... Hmm, Mis, i think you are on to something....

Tales of Sap Moss & Bad Customer Service

I can't believe it has taken me so long to recount this story! I had a wee bit of spare time before meeting up with peeps at Lucky Strike, so i popped into the Aveda store at Hollywood & Highland.
Now, back in the day i loved this product! --and my hair loved it too. it smelled earthy --not fruity. I also have a connection to it as my first grown-up [sic] boyfriend developed an addiction for this too, and nothing like a smell to make one remember, ahhh.
So i thought maybe it was time to return to Sap Moss... This is how my visit to Aveda went:
"Hello & welcome to Aveda, can i help you?"
"Hello & yes. Do you guys still carry Sap Moss."
"No, it was discontinued. This is our replacement product: [Vanna hands as she shows me the new product]"
"Does it smell the same?"
"No, it smells better. Especially as Sap Moss smelled like dirt."
"Okay, thanks. I'm good. Have a good night"
Nice, right? A customer goes into a store, looking for a product & the salesperson tells you that what you like basically smells like sh*t. Awesome.
So much for going back to Aveda products....

Gnome Invaders

Okay, so how amazing is this?
I guess the concept is anti-gnome, but in order for it to work/make sense you need a gnome!

So i'm not sure about the audience they are trying to reach...but i guess they found me!
To find out more about these rascals, see here.
