It's raining sideways outside.

I was gonna come here today with some clever, witty title about chocolate bars or something, but screw that. It's raining like hell.

Like, my street is flooded. My street never floods, and it flooded today. If it's flooding over here, then my school is probably underwater, which is probably why it's shut down. So I couldn't go to work, I can't go to class, and I have a delayed blog to post, so here we go!

I went to work last night, and it kicked my ass as usual, but my face was (relatively) beat, and I wore my hair out!

(Eh? What? What hair?)

Behold (my face) and The Puff!

I'm not sure how I felt about the overall appearance of it, because in some lighting I adored it, and in others I was a little iffy about my face, but some is better than none, I guess! Details!

Okay,  that's it! This took a little more effort than usual, because I didn't write down what I used yesterday, and I had to wrack my frazzled brain to remember what shadows I used, so hopefully these were the ones I used I can't make any promises. Anyway, while I wait for the city to dry up enough to go get my glasses fixed, I'll be writing! Later!
