"You Know," She Remarked,

"you do look beautifully put together."

It was nice to hear, especially since I was wearing black velour sweatpants and flipflops, and had barely decided to wear makeup yesterday, crappy as I was feeling.

Most of the time my mother regards me as awfully vain for wanting to bathe every day and wear makeup when I go out: it disrupts her schedule. It takes too long.

But on a day I've invested nearly nothing in my appearance, it's a nice surprise when she says a thing like that.

1 Most women look better without makeup than with.

2 Guys are strange about makeup, but I hate glancing at my face in the mirror in a public restroom and seeing the dark circles that live under my eyes. Without makeup, I look like Alice Cooper--wearing his.

3 Heh. This is why contacts will never work for me anymore. Now they just look like the shadow of my glasses.
