For anyone who is wondering, NYX cosmetics are awesome + cheap + cruelty-free! The only thing I don’t love so far is their mascara (currently loving the equally eco-friendly Physicians Formula for that!!) #nyx #cosmetics #makeup #crueltyfree 💄💅👄

In the midst of the media (left and right) spewing about beer cans, controversies & nontroversies, Santa penguins, and the legalities of babies in mangers, I just want to offer a simple reminder to get back to the basics and avoid the drama. Live and let live. Enough with the mockery. Be a good human this holiday season!

In a pleasant turn of events, two of my old co-workers from DC were in Columbus on business this week.  As it turns out, one of Chuck’s old Marine friends from TBS was also newly in the area. Chuck and I met them out for dinner Downtown. I haven’t laughed so much in quite a while! Good reminiscing, dynamic conversation about what we’re all up to now, and jolly silly fun all ‘round.  I left feeling refreshed and energized!

It’s always good to catch up with old friends, and it’s always fun to combine both Chuck’s and my worlds in one lively evening! I do rather miss that sometimes.

I have to avoid the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show and social media every year because people are so damn stupid and insensitive.

I want to punch every single person in the face who says that they need to eat a cheeseburger.

Or if they say that “real women” have curves.

No boobs. No curves. Middle finger up. Still a real woman.

Women need to stop body-shaming each other. We are all “real women” and come in various shapes and sizes. Just be HAPPY and HEALTHY! We should all know what that means for ourselves.

I’m so bad at selfies. But I want to show off my new glasses! This is the first time I’ve updated my prescription in about 4 years, and since my old frames were all cracked, I figured I’d splurge on those too! The prescription is so new and strong in comparison, I feel lightheaded! #gucci #cokelenses #soblind
