Mission Statement and all that jazz.



Ladies (and gentlemen?)! Welcome to the wild and weird world of yours truly. I am Stephanie (or Steph as I prefer to be called), your eccentric host/blogger/makeup connoisseur.

I like adore love AM OBSESSED WITH cosmetics/hair. I believe in mascara (and lots of it) and eyeliner. I believe in eye makeup that makes people say "OMG! How did you do that?". I believe in funky hair colors, fun hair cuts, and wearing fauxhawks and liberty spikes to concerts (yes, I have done these things...multiple times).

Wanna learn some makeup techniques? Have a desire to experiment with funky colors? Feel the urge to listen to me babble on about everything and anything? Well you are in luck. Oh yes, YOU. ARE. IN. LUCK. Why you ask? I plan on doing just those things and more. Right here at this blog even. Makeup reviews, application techniques, tutorials, hair-do how-to's, and general tomfoolery will all happen right here. RIGHT HERE! Oh the excitement!

All I ask is that you:

1.) Participate when I ask for feedback
2.) Don't judge me on my lack of blogging skills. (I am, you might say, a "blogging virgin")

Easy peasy, no?

That's what I thought.

Mmmkay. This is the time when I have to give a lil' shout out to my love-bug and best friend in the whole wide world: Kittie Mau Mau!

I can hear you thinking "Who is this 'Kittie Mau Mau' character?" Well, Kittie is my shadow. She's my snugglebuddy. She's a shoulder to cry on. She loves me unconditionally. And she's my dog!
Kittie is a black/tan/white (black tri) Miniature Australian Shepherd. And today is her BIRTHDAY!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABY GIRL!!

Kittie was born on September 26th, 2001. 8 years old today. EIGHT years old. Geeze. How time flies... Why, it seems just yesterday she was this tiny ball of fluffy fur, given to me for my birthday in December of '01. Giant Christmas bow stuck atop her tiny little noggin... Oh Mau Mau, how I love you silly girl.

To celebrate this joyous occasion, I trotted my happy self down to Southlake Towne Centre and purchased some luxiourous hand-baked doggie treats from the Three Dog Bakery in Southlake,TX. Doggie Drooley Bars, Pupcakes, and a bone cookie personalized with Kittie's name in dog-friendly carob "chocolate". I should have taken a couple of pictures; those treats were so adorable and looked like something made for humans to eat. Kittie was way too excited at the prospect of gettin' down on some "people food" to allow me to grab the camera and snap some pics. She inhaled them in about 2 minutes! Of course she had to share with her sister, Zoey. We don't play favorites around here. ;]

Okay lovies, stay tuned for the next post. I'm still learning how to blog, so this should be an adventure for all of us.

Peace out until next time,

XOXO
