And it's nothing to do with us...

[Buffy]

Today was a mess - but a different kind from yesterday's. Today was more like a banana split that's been dropped - too sweet, too sticky, too much.

I got all dolled up this morning - but instead of doing it for mysefl, it was more like I was getting ready for battle, gearing up, streaking on my battlepaint.

But hey, when I walked out that door, I was on top of my game. Unfortunately, by the time I made it to work, I remembered that while I might have had the made up face, the perfectly cinched figure...I am still lacking the one thing I need most - the art of conversing, of being able to relate to other people...or more importantly, mi amor.

Ugh. I'm such a needy thing - it's ridiculous!

I gave up early after realizing how futile my polished efforts were, and went out for a therapeutic shopping trip. I must be channeling my need...I came home with my first lingerie ever. 3 of them, in fact. The first is black, sheer, with silver trim - very Christmas evening. The third is kind of french-maid-cabaret-cigarette girl black and white...which might actualy become a Halloween custome, if it comes down to it. And the fhird is summer yellow with a sheer flourish at the bottom, blue flowers trailing across the stomach. I also managed to buy 13 new panties and thongs, and 1 adorable bra - it surprised me with a acid strawberries and whimcream tie-dye effect.

I know I'm going to go into work tomorrow and the same bungling up will occurr, but for now....pretty things give me peace. And hey, considering how I didn't do laundry today, I'm gonna need new underwear. ^_^ ...ugh, the things I I justify my behavior with....

Maybe I'll post pictures of my new stuff up here - nothing exhibitionistic, just laid out and appreciated. Maybe. I might forget.

Inspire me!:::
