The shaving and moisturising is done at night, in a self indulgent habit I have of bathing in lavendar oil and then moisturizing when I am done. I am never caught with stubble anywhere!

But yeah, I can wash and condition my hair, blow it dry and dress with full makeup and moisturizing in a short time.

I find the longer I take the worse I look. I just get it over with.

You are a beauty so shush up!

eta: what I need though is someone to indulge me by rubbing the moisturizer on my back. I could get borrowed girl to do it if I needed - but it just isnt the same.

That's a pretty good estimate, as I can be showered in 5 (the no hair thing helps) and dressed in another 5. Now, being conscious enough to pull that off, well, that's another story altogether.

And a quick YAY that Adam Baldwin will be at D*C !!!!!

( I'm betting the guys have a three to four times shorter amount of time to get ready...I mean how long could a quick shower and pulling on clothes take? It's not like you do your hair and make-up and such)

Ok for my average decent hair, some make-up and jewelry, clothes, atc from start to finish would be bare minimum 1 hour 15 minutes.... to do the short version if I really rushed, skipped make-up, was wearing jeans and a tee...35-40 minutes

ok so how about it guys??? ( I'm betting Jimi only spends 10 as he doesn't even have hair to wash)



Shower takes 20 minutes at least, drying my hair takes half an hour, styling hair takes less time since my hair refuses to go into any style i try, makeup takesabout 20 minutes. So it takes me about 1 hour fifteen at the least.

Yeah FMF is just fast like a freak:) Still very impressed though:)

See I knew it....lousy hairless guys all dressed and ready super quick... Jealousy is terrible thing ( mine of course)

This is why men are always sitting around waiting for us to get ready.

OK adding to the vanity ponder here...What beauty ritual do you consider absolutely essential?

For me moisturizer would be the one( followed closely by brazilian bikini wax)

I don't mind the waiting around, usually I just find something else to do with the time. It's been so long since we have actually gotten to go out though ...

I've gotta have a good razor, both a straight bladed one (like the Gillette M4 Power ) and a set of good clippers for hair and beard, so they don't get out of control.

By "beauty ritual" I'm sure you meant "manly, grunting, testosterone ritual". In that case the only thing I can come up with is shaving. Which is also not so much essential as it is socially necessary.

When I had like a week off work last year and no need to have human contact I didn't shave at all. Mainly just to see what all would develop. It was a sorta fun experiment.

Yes of course I mean manly, testosterone filled grooming ( sort of like when they call a bath puff a " lather builder" in commercials for men's body wash)

So how long did your beard end up being?

Not too long...quarter of an inch maybe. It was just interesting to see how it actually grows out. When I shaved I'd always just shave all over the place, but really it seems that most of my upper cheeks don't really grow much hair. Also mainly the center of my lower lip grows hair and the sides not so much.

Good morning folks.

Shaving/grooming: Shower takes 15-20 minutes. Shaving I ususally do at night (Half drunk when a good razor is not available). Check and clip nails at least once a week. I haven't cut my hair in over a year. Closest thing is the occasional trim to my burns. Hate having hair in my ear.

On the shaving thing... there was a black cop here that told me he had the same problem with shaving. The hair on my face is nearly as thick as the hair on top of my hear. Praise Allah the stuff won't grow as long or I might have to resort to less than favorable tactics. The best thing is to use a razor with three or more blades and to have a shaving lotion handy for afterwards.

Allright. I'm trying to distract from a real issue and it ain't working. I honestly don't completely comprehend what is happening right now with my "relationship" but can guess that it is pretty much the stuff I was warned about earlier. Seems a depressive state has suddenly overcome Mindy and there is no telling when or if it will get better.

I just cut out a large paragraph detailing stuff related to the issues but I'm tired of sharing.

Nothing against y'all but I need answers, not speculation.

I've already been warned this would happen. It is just something I need to deal with.

Yes, MsG, kids are certainly entertainment. Zachary is positive that he (and also any male who happens to be around, namely me and his little brother) is Buzz Lightyear. Also, he sang the Ballad of Serenity to Magda last week shen she called. When we are in the car, every time he hears River's Jig or Saffron's Wedding Song (yeah, there's only one CD I really listen to in the car, guess whose it is) he says "More pirates!" Gods, I love that kid.

DON'T PANIC. also, Waiting Is.

RUGBUG


Hi all...I'm here. Work has been kickin' my butt for a few days as it oft seems to do during the endings and beginnings of the month. I've missed you all...but you've been WAY too polite and keeping the threads to readable lengths. Get to work with the posting!

From what I have missed:

First of all: NVG...just hang in there. Give her time and space and things should stabilize again.

On the late morning issue:
I get up at 6:20 to be at work by 7. I don't eat breakfast anyway and I already have clothes and hair-do picked out the night before. It's just a matter of execution. I take a real shower the night before (usually after the gym or riding), so in the morning it's a 5 minute wash-up shower. If I'm that late...I still do it all, just quicker. I can get ready in 15 minutes if need be. Or else I'm just late.

If I have to take a shower in the am, I get up earlier. It takes me about 20 minutes to shower (I swear it takes me longer to get my hair WET than it takes most people for their entire shower). I NEVER "do" my hair in the morning...meaning blow dry, straighten. That alones takes upwards of 45 minutes. Instead, if I wash it in the morning, I put it up (to blow dry/straighten that evening for the next day) or put stuff in it to keep it wavy.

If I've planned clothes the night before, life is easier and I won't stand in front of the closet pondering what to wear (seriously, that can add on loads of time).

another 10 minutes or so for make-up, making the bed, opening the house and gathering stuff for work.

I plan 2-hours for going out IF I have to do my hair. But like say, I'm pretty efficient at figuring ways around styling my hair right before an evening out. Works MUCH better to do it in stages and not make all the effort at once.

NV- big hugs and if you want to talk, always here baby:) HUGS and wish I could make this easier/better.

Rugbug- hmmmm ok so how do you keep your hair from going all flat and silky overnight? 'Cause mine will just smooth out completely if I don't style it starting wet...probably yet another curse of the baby fine hair...

JONNYQUEST

"Did he just go crazy and fall asleep?"


I've been having power outtage issues and internet outtage issues...heck even my cell phone cut out for a bit. The storms that passed though here apparently had more umph to them than they sounded. Whatever. I never fails when I have a few days off in a row that something comes up and I can visit with y'all as much as I'd like to.

In any case, I just sent a PM to CaliforniaKaylee (gonna resend it 'cause I don't know if it got out of the gate...). Has anyone heard from her? It's been three weeks since she's been here and she was in the middle of a flare up at the time and I'm getting kinda worried. (Don't worry, it's not out of the way for me.)

In other news, Hi everyone. I'm to cranky to visit much now, but I'm thinking on all of you with love.
