I am really pretty nosey.

 

I eat too much chocolate.

 

I don't make my bed very often.

I own a sewing machine and know how to use it.

 

I miss being married *eck*

 

I know the first impression I give is weird and strange and the more I try to fix that, the worse it gets.

Sometimes I'm quick to judge others.

I eat tomatoes in certain foods but overall ate tomato.

I get scared of the dark when I'm home alone.

Sounds like you are talk about me with 2 and 3. :) Confession is good for the soul..."go thy way and sin no more" :)

I have been known to look up bootleg online copies of the Church Handbook, Book 1, to satisfy my curiosity on particular issues.

When I eat pizza, I almost always over-eat... and when I don't it's because the pizza runs out first.

 

I love learning, but hated school for the most part.

 

I'm a neat-freak that has become trapped in a slobs habits of late.

Hello,

 

Since you said,

I am really pretty.

 

I'd guess you are either conceited or just not very modest.  ;)

 

 

:animatedlol:

 

It was a difficult confession, but it needed to be said.

  • To minimize the appearance of fine lines around my eyes, I sandpaper them away.  A moderately fine grit (#100-#180) works best.  Works like a charm.

     

  • Now and then I will wash and dry a big load of towels, and then bring the hot towels up and dump them on my bed so my cat can crawl inside and take a nap.  I don't wash them again before I use them.

     

  • Once or twice a year I will buy a National Enquirer and a box of animal crackers and enjoy them both late at night.

Eowyn, I'm glad you saw the humor in my purposeful misquote and didn't take offense.  

 

Heaven forbid anyone ever accuse me of not having a sense of humor.

When I was assistant to a dermatologist (who was, granted, old and did things his own way), in some of the "fancier" skin treatments we used:

Sandpaper

Mesh from the hardware store

Acetone

Dry ice

 

The first two, of course, were put through a pressurized sterilizer first.

I procrastinate on nearly everything.

 

I worry myself into anxious fits over what seems like the smallest thing (ie see all my 'advice board' posts).

 

I have a tendency to over think and question choices that I make.

 

 

 

Or, tl;dr. I'm human.

I don't like my 9-5 job.

 

I would take a Nursery calling for life.

 

I love that Eowyn starts these threads.

 

I wish Eowyn didn't use that image for her icon, as I love the character Eowyn and have a hard time not transferring that to Eowyn.

Can you explain what you mean? I have no clue what would be meant by "sandpapering" skin.

Any noun can be verbed, but sometimes it's imprecise, sorry.

 

I meant use sandpaper in the usual way to rub my skin lightly.  Not with an electric sander, of course, and certainly not vigorously like you do when sanding off old paint.  

 

I spend a fair amount of time in hot sunny places like Nevada and Hawaii, and after a few days of squinting in the heat and having my skin dried out and tanned (or burned) by the sun, I see creases appear around my eyes.  The usual crow's feet, nothing especially strange.

 

Lightly sanding my skin is sort of like using an exfoliant.  I don't do it often, and I'm very gentle.  It's like a deep cleaner.  Eowyn's comment makes me think that I must have heard about this from a dermatologist, maybe online.  I doubt whether I'm clever enough to have come up with this idea by myself.

I missed the whole sandpaper comment. Yes, apparently, it is a well known and used technique to reduce wrinkles around eyes and mouth. I wouldn't have thought to go this route but it makes sense as I scan through several articles and blogs on it.

Now I'm worried that I'm being vain about my appearance.  But really, the sandpaper and the nose job are all I have done to improve my looks, and the nose job was to fix a broken nose.  

 

Do I get bonus points for going to a bad hairstylist?  The place I go to has one hairstylist that nobody likes, but I feel sorry for her and ask for her by name so she doesn't feel so rejected.  I don't think she could do a worse job if she cut my hair with a dull tomahawk, but I don't care how my hair looks.  Does that make up for my skin vanity?

LOL. I wish we still had a laugh button. PV, you can sandpaper your teeth for all I care. (That might actually be pretty cool...) I doubt anyone is making adverse jugdments about your vanity based on skin sandpapering. Sanity, maybe.

I confess the following:

 

I play dart guns battles with my kids.

 

I like the video game "Doctor Mario."

 

I hate 0900 church times but love 1300 hour start time.

 

I hate Windows 8 but like the Linux Mint 16 and Windows 7 operating systems.
