Divisions and Precisions

Labor Day

Overall, it was an excellent Labor Day weekend. Saturday was lazy, while Sunday was filled with a little housework, a little laziness, an amazing dinner (Cornish hens and rice stuffing, garlic-cheese biscuits), and the new NASCAR habit (I know, I know). Somewhere in there on Sunday, I wrote a flash fiction story and watched the supplemental stuff on my Two Towers DVD. (Wow, it sounds like I was busier than it felt.)

Today was the party over at Mer's where there were many people, much food, and lots of fun, despite the fact that the croquet got rained out. I finally got to play Cranium (I LOVED it!) and also played a rousing game of Space Munchkin, and I would've won too, if it wasn't for those meddling kids.

I learned a valuable lesson. If you are, like me, someone who wears makeup on average about once a year, and the whim to wear makeup suddenly strikes you (as it struck me today), it would be wise to make sure you have the wherewithal to remove said makeup at the end of the day. Otherwise, you will end up like me, leaning over the sink and splashing water on your eyes to try and remove waterproof mascara. Fortunately, when referring to mascara, "waterproof" actually means "it won't come off if you breathe too hard", so a little splashing took most of it off.
