The Daily Sabs

growing up, i never had any freckles. maybe a few here and there, but never enough to be a freckled kid. these days it's a completely different story. my face is littered with them, and more are cropping up each day.

in addition to these little spatterings, i have also developed a few moles. now i am definitely positive i didn't have any of these as a kid. these buggers are all from my adult life, and now they're making me worry. see that fatty a bit below and to the left of my ear? i swear to you it is growing. it's itchy, and after a day in the sun it is now peeling (i was wearing 85 spf folks, 85!). this strikes me as not good. which is why i spent way too much time trying to make an appointment with the determatologist in order to have it looked at and possibly removed. i called five places and the closest appointment was in two weeks (the one i want to go to is in a month). and i don't know about you, but i think two weeks is too far away. surely this mole will devour my face by then. mark my word. devour.

for some reason i became totally addicted to bowie's life on mars this morning. however i don't own any bowie, let alone this particular track. this is not because of my poor taste, but because of the "if your roommate owns this then you can save your money" phenomenon. why i haven't remedied it in all these years probably stems from the "i can just google it when i need to hear it" phenomenon. because of these two things, and the new-found addiction, the music video for life on mars (which i found on youtube, but stupidly can't embed here - thanks record labels) has been playing all morning. i'd say i was driving randall crazy, but he's escaped into his DS so that he can fully ignore me.

while watching the video, i thought it would be fun to recreate bowie's eyemakeup. i'm not sure why, (1) what do i know about makeup and (2) do i even own any makeup? --- the answer to 2 is apparently yes and the answer to 1 is not much. but, since the makeup was still out from last night's wolf getup, i figured why not. and while i don't have the huge dilated pupil like bowie, i do have a freckle in mine, and that's gotta be worth something.

ps. can't waits to see the jujubee later!

pps. since i can't embed the video, i have included the inspirational still.

ppps. i was hoping this could be my new karaoke jam, but i can't quite make it to mars.

This smile is for two things. (1) I finally got a much overdue haircut, including new bangs and (2) we had Ike's for dinner.

ps: I wish my arms were longer. I just need a few inches more to get everything in focus.
