1. Y'all, I swear. It's like I'm living in a sitcom sometimes. My mother tried to call and text me the day before and day of our trip to see them, but unbeknownst to her, the calls weren't going through. So she called the police in my town to do a welfare check. *headdesk* Fortunately, what happened instead is that City Hall called me and my brother called me but OMG.

3. I got some wonderful birthday gifts, including a box of books from executrix and some incense and matches in a gorgeous box from sweettartheart. Josh got me an Ulta gift card so I've been upping my makeup game. I've decided my new thing is going to be lipstick. Currently, I've been rocking Lancome Trendy Mauve (a discontinued nude) with the Charlotte Tilbury lip sculpt (liner) in fair.

4. I have been watching Erin Parsons (former makeup artist) on Youtube, and her channel has inspired this renewed interest in makeup. Her videos are deeply engaging, and she does a lot of thoroughly researched dives into historical makeup topics. She's also a collector, so a lot of her videos are her showing off her collection of vintage makeup, makeup accessories and perfumes and explaining the evolution of products from then to now. Same with application techniques. I find the whole thing fascinating.

5. I'm not going to back read, so if anything happened while I was away, please let me know!
