So…what is the Monday Poll?
Excellent question! It isn’t, contrary to its name, an actual poll, like with little clicky buttons. It’s just a list of five more or less random questions I’ve been posting on this blog every Monday morning for the past quadrillion years (since 2007). I love reading your answers, and it helps me get my week off to a good start. 🌻
1. Would you rather be a ninja or a pirate?
Ninja! They wear all black (a good color for me) and usually aren’t on a boat (I get seasick easily). And, generally, they seem to be less stinky than pirates?! I dunno if any of this is true, but in my mind it is. LOL!
2. Camping or glamping?
Camping if someone else sets up and breaks down the campsite. Glamping if I have to be the adult and do it, ha!
3. What lipstick were you really into when you first started wearing makeup?
My first “fancy lady” lipstick was a very light creamy magenta by Clinique — very late ’80s! I loooovede seeing that silver case in my hand when it was time to touch up. I was also really into Revlon lipsticks back then too.
4. How often do you stay up past 3 a.m.?
I’m often up during the witching hour, but it’s never on purpose. Anybody want some insomnia? I’ll give it to you for free!
5. A silly fear you have?
I’m irrationally afraid of earthworms. Especially the long ones.
6. What’s the best room in the house?
I love my living room in the afternoon; it’s comfortable and has the best light.
7. What part of doing makeup are you best at?
I think I’m pretty good at getting base makeup to look like skin. Also, once upon a time, smokey eyes used to be my jam!
8. What cartoons did you watch when you were a kid?
Scooby Doo was always on at the babysitter’s house. I also remember He-Man and She-Ra being a big deal.
9. Do you text or call more?
I text more, even though I’m the world’s slowest texter!
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

P.P.S. Hello and happy Monday, my beautiful friend! How goes it on your end? I’m doing alright today. The sun’s out, I’m drinking coffee right now… Overall, I’m feeling optimistic about the week ahead.
I’m shocked to hear myself say this out loud, but yesterday I *did something* over the weekend. I know, what even is going out anymore?
Our fam-bam went to SF to see the Immersive Van Gogh Exhibit. Have you heard of it?
It’s kind of like a Van Gogh painting brought to life. You stand in this huge room (in socially distanced circles that are projected on the floor) as some of Van Gogh’s most famous paintings are projected onto the walls with music playing in the background. As you’re looking at the paintings, parts of them actually move and flow with the music, so you feel like you’re standing in the middle of a living, breathing work of art. IT WAS SO COOL. My favorite part was the famous Irises painting; it started with what looked like dirt being projected on the walls, then we saw roots elongating and growing, then leaves shooting upwards and out of the roots, and then the flowers eventually budding and blooming. It was an explosion of color! I even got a little teary because I was so overwhelmed with how beautiful it was.
If you ever get the chance to go, I highly recommend it.
