Friday Night Lights

 First of all, I can't believe that there are no promo pics for season 4?!?! I know that many people do not know of Friday Night Lights because it airs on Direct TV and we, in Canada, don't get this channel. NBC will be broadcasting in the summer of 2010, but who can wait that long.  For now, even though the show airs on Wednesday nights, I will just have to wait a couple of days and search for it online.

Season 4 is quite interesting.  I thought it would be different and just not the same with some characters not returning (Lyla, Tyra, Smash, Street) but I like the new characters (Vince, Luke).  I especially like Luke (remember him as Victory's assistant, Roy on Lipstick Jungle), he is so polite and honest.  I am hooked already and it's only the second episode.   I don't want to spoil it, in case there are people out there who are going to wait until next summer to watch. If during the upcoming holiday season when most shows are on hiatus, you need to watch something, please consider playing catch up and get hooked on this show.  Trust me, you won't be disappointed!

I don't know about you, but doesn't the theme song get to you every time you hear it.  Doesn't it just send shivers up your spine?

MAC stores - a big NO NO!!!

This is why I try to stay away from MAC stores.  Everytime I go in, I want something.  Luckily, I have the will power to say no but all I can think about on the GO train ride home is the products that I tried on.  I know that I shouldn't buy anything because God knows I don't need anymore makeup but cremesheen glass comes and goes. And when it goes, I kick myself for not buying it.  The makeup artist said, "It's limited edition" so I know that means that if I don't buy it now, who knows when I will see it again. For now, well, this week, I am going to try and hold back and not tempt myself to buying anything. On today's visit, this is what I had my eye on:

Cremesheen Glass - shades that I like:  Partial to Pink and Boy Bait.  I think that they are kinda too light for me with winter coming up and my pasty skin making an appearance now but I wouldn't mind stockpiling these shades for the summer (when I become blark).

Eyeshadow Kit in Sorceress - I love purple and smoky shades.  This is perfect for me. I recently dyed my hair a red/violet colour. Not sure if this will suit the new change but I plan on dyeing my hair black when this colour starts to fade.  That is when the palette will come in handy.

Paint Pot - the shade that has caught my eye is Bare Study, it's like the Shroom of Paint Pots.  This is a very neutral colour that can be worn for an everyday look or spiced up for a evening look.  It is described as a champagne with gold and white pearl.  I would use this paint pot when I am too lazy to use a brush w/ Shroom or I only have five minutes to do my makeup.  I can just use my finger to apply.  I love it!

I think I can honestly do without the eyeshadow palette but have to make a decision about the paint pot and maybe ONLY one of the cremesheen glass.  I will wait to see what damage I do from this weekend's getaway.  I think a new bag from Cole Haan is something I want more.

WOW, he admitted it...

...last night, out of nowhere, Mike tells me that we shouldn't buy a house because he knows that he can't do all the things that come along with owning a house. For example, fixing the roof, shovelling the snow, raking the leaves, mowing the lawn.  I am glad that he has accepted this fact.  He tells me that when we plan on moving into a bigger place, we should look for a condo with two bedrooms and den.  I told him that we should look for a building that doesn't have a pool or a gym so we don't have to pay for ridiculous maintenance fees.  Although a small townhouse wouldn't be so bad, Mike wouldn't have to do all that outdoor maintenance. 

We have a year and a half to think about what we want to do.  A lot can happen in that amount of time.  Who knows, maybe we might win the lottery and end up living on an island.  Wishful thinking!!!

Newly purchased mascara

I recently read about Cover Girl's new msacara, LashBlast Length and wanted to try it but I told myself that I have a couple of other mascaras that I have to try out first.

Yesterday while I was at Shopper Drug Mart, the Cover Girl promo stand for the mascara had a bunch of $2.00 off coupons.  I tore off three of them to save for a rainy day. The mascara at Shoppers regularly sells for $10.99 but is on sale for $9.89.

Today, when I was at Walmart, I saw that mascara is only $8.47 and with my coupon, it came out to $6.47 plus tax.  BONUS!!! I immediately purchased it in blue.  I can't wait to try it out tomorrow.  Stay tuned for my review.

Who can resist Edward? Or shall I say RPattz?

I don't think I have to say anymore. 17 more days until New Moon!!! I can't wait!

Marques' 1st birthday / Daga's new house visit

After the adult party on Saturday night, we headed to Ajax for Marques' 1st birthday/Halloween party.  Here is the little monkey or birthday celebrant. He never complained or cried once being in this fuzzy costume.  I think he got upset when his mom decided to take it off of him.

Here is Brexton (Darryl and Clecia's son) and Marques (Jimmy and Adaiah's son). Isn't it hilarious that they were both dressed up as monkeys?

 

Well, you saw us dressed up as Alex from a Clockwork Orange but we knew that we couldn't dress like that for a kids party. We put together these fairy costume last minute.  Wings are so much fun!!!

 

After the party, we made a quick stop to the Daga's new house in Ajax.  It's such a cute little home. It's not massive but it's perfect for their family. I got to spend a bit of time with the happiest baby I know. Callum is almost about to walk. It's crazy how time flies. Soon he will be as big a Bray and Bray will then be 12.  Oh my goodness, I am thinking too far ahead!!!

 

Halloween Costume: A Clockwork Orange

This year since we decided to go to Reinard and Marlon's Halloween party, Mike, Julie, Maureen and I thought we should do a group costume. And, oh do group costumes ever work. We were asked many times by random people at the party who we didn't know us if they could take our picture.

But the costume is not complete unless you have the trademark eye!
