It’s a sick day (been sick since Saturday afternoon) but it’s not going to stop me from having a bit of fun. While leaving Jerry Maguire on telly, I tinkered with Skype — taking snapshots via the webcam.

Found it a bit disconcerting to be using a webcam to take a photo, a first for me. Hehe

I should be resting this fever out instead of doing silly things but hey sure was fun! LOL

Most decent out of the lot. Hopefully, you folks can see the makeup.

I had grown a bit tired of feeling icky. Know how you’d like not to look like how you feel? This is me trying to create something positive out of something negative. It’s my way of celebrating the last day of the month as well.

I have to say that I’ve been wearing this look a lot lately. I reckon it’s easy to put together and I love that I get to use the MAC e/s in Gilded Ash. One thing I did a little different is how I applied the lippy — can’t see it on the webcam photo, though. But if you’d notice, it looks all too natural looking, yes? You wouldn’t really think I had a fresh coat on. I happen to think it’s cool. Hehe.

In closing, I hear Dorothy (Renee Zellweger) say “Shut up. You had me at hello”. Hehe. I guess it’s my cue to end things here. I hope you folks can take the time to share bits of what you did over the weekend or perhaps share with me something you’ve done that’s interesting lately. I’d appreciate reading them while I get better.
