The Bunny took me to the mall.*

Our mission: Fall lipstick.

The trip was, despite the hordes of dazed back-to-school shoppers, a great success. It’s still a slight mystery to me why the make-up guru (at MAC, of course) thought my look should be more Hip-Hop, but whatever. I love the new color. (DoubleShot, from the amplified collection, if you must know).

We found many shiney and exciting objects during our travels. I resisted the talking Gollum figure, but gave in to the hotpink wig. We managed to avoid dates for Homecoming (narrowly), inadvertantly discovered that the guy at the cigar shop spends way, way too much time contemplating how much Victoria’s Secret spends on advertising, and had a fine time at the Halloween Store.

Now, if you’ll pardon me, I really must go balance my checkbook.

*Why yes, it was A Very Bad Idea to go to the mall on Saturday night the weekend before school started
