I just want the entire clothing industry to revolve around me. Is that too much to ask?

I've done that routine twice now, super pleased with it. Hair isn't so flat up top!!
And his vest's back is similar fabric to suit lining with a pair of straps to adjust the fit.
I don't think either Sheri or I were responding with girl-vests in mind.
Maybe Blake just makes it look particularly good.
it's tru
@lonelyahava I've been wearing contacts since I was 15. They initially fit me with gas-permeable hard lenses as a way to keep the shape of my eyes from changing so quickly (I was getting a new prescription every four months from 13-15), and I wore those for several years. In college I switched to the Acuvue 2s, then later to Acuvue Advanced but they bothered by eyes a whole bunch. I've been wearing Acuvue Oasys for the last three/four years and they're amazing, especially given how much time I spend in front of a computer screen.
I've learned the hard way to keep to the two-week rule, eye infections & scratches are an almost guarantee if you let your lenses get grody and old plus they just start to feel gross and gummy.
Oh! And if you're cooking with garlic, onions, leeks, anything pungent and especially anything with capsaicin wash your hands like nobody's business before touching your eye (I've started using dish liquid to get the oils off my skin, but some people wear latex gloves while they chop). Nothing in the universe is worse than forgetting you chopped a thai chili or jalepeno and then touching your eyes hours later, omg so ow.
That dermatologist appointment can't come fast enough

i do own moisturizer? somewhere?
well it's hand and nail cream but same diff, right?
But my hairdresser loves it when she asks how asymmetric I want my hair and I respond "Do what you want":
Usagi, you look amazing!
this is me
soap on ma bod, nothing but water on my face
It's started resulting in dry spots on my chin and forehead though, so I'm thinking I might need to upgrade
I kinda got scared away from too much face stuff because I was worried it would resurrect my acne or something
You guys gotta quit talking about things I actually have opinions on at 3 in the goddamn morning
Anyway the thing about Oasys vs Acuvue 2s is the amount of air they let through, if you have a lower strength prescription you'll be fine with the 2s most likely, I wear a -9 in both eyes and 2s are uh, completely fucking miserable for me. My optometrist told me at my script you're looking at, say (this is not scientific numbers this was his example) with a script as high as mine the Oasys let through about 90% of regular air flow to my eye, so they feel comfortable, while the Acuvue 2 or Acuvue 2 colors would only let through about 20% of regular air flow. And the 2s made my eyes feel really sticky and they shifted around a lot on my eyeball because the lack of airflow made them gummy and my eyes upset so it was just all very awkward. If you're not Mr. Magoo it's less of an issue.
Also I use the ClearCare/peroxide system like Viv is talking about because I am very mildly allergic to ingredients in regular boob-case cleaners so I use it daily and honestly I just wear my contact lenses until they get a nick in the edge or they feel like they aren't 100% clean anymore and generally with a daily peroxide clean I can get 6 weeks plus out of two week lenses. I keep regular saline on hand for rinsing before I put in my eyes (if I get lint or cat hair on a lens, or whatever) and if I'm traveling or don't have 6 hours to let it sit I'll just use a very mild no rub or just fill the case with straight saline instead.
I've had glasses since six and then contacts briefly at 11 (I was too dirty to keep them clean enough to be wearable, honestly) and then I went back to contacts again at 15. The hardest part for me with contacts was not putting them in, it was getting them out! The doctor will go over and over putting them in and I've never had a problem touching my eyes so that wasn't hard, but he didn't go over how to take them out and at the end of my first day wearing contacts as a teenager I was like well... now what the fuck do I do? I'd completely forgotten how to take them out from when I was younger.
If you're Mr. Magoo don't expect to be able to sleep in your contact lenses, if you're a normal person with a lower level of correction you can get those sleepable lenses if you want. I obviously have no experience with those. Primary concern is washing your hands, all the time, every time you're going to touch an eye or a contact lens. Onions, peppers, cigarette smoke, lotion, marker (this is how I ruined my contacts at 11 years old), nail polish remover, anything that the idea of touching it directly to your eye is absolutely horrifying - wash your hands and then wash em one more time to be sure they're really clean before you put in or take out your contacts. Also if you have very heavy or long eyelashes buy an eyelash curler, because a lash in your eye without contacts is an irritant and a lash in your eye with contacts is like someone took a razor blade and made it even worse like some kind of hell razor blade and then tucked it right under your contact lens. If you have really heavy lashes sometimes they can straighten out and sit right above your eye and irritate the lens and a quick even halfass curl with a curler will clear that right up.
For all that this sounds really complicated, it really isn't, and I wouldn't trade my contact lenses for the world unless I could get super cheap/free lasik in which case I would be all over that.

Whoa, suddenly my problems with non-Oasys lenses make a lot more sense
Not sure if a tweed jacket works with a slightly darker tweed vest.
And now for something prettier. I thought this was quite a lovely dress.

About the only time I have any kind of discomfort is not the lenses fault but OH GOD EYELASHES FFFFFFFFFFFFF.

Still have this, if it hasn't fucked off by the time I'm 30 I'm gonna be particularly incensed.

I also need to find a doctor, a dentist, a dental surgeon to get rid of these wisdom teeth ...
fuck being a grownup.
Hopefully the frames I picked out look alright, I'm not really sure what to go for when it comes to glasses.
lol
Also, if you lose a daily it's no big deal. Losing a monthly or a rigid contact is much more annoying.
