This is something I've wanted to talk about for a time and I just felt like ~producing~ something, so I took photos as I did my makeup today. I wear makeup almost every day, if I'm leaving the house anyway, but I vary it quite a bit... if I'm lazy I might just use a bit of concealer and some powder, and I almost always do my eye makeup differently. However this is a bit of a composite of most of my looks.

I unfriended a few people who are no longer active or I feel like I haven't clicked with. If you'd like to be re-added, please feel free to comment.

I made another mixtape. It's got a very different, far more consistent sound this one, because it's all music for the piano, and even more, it's practically all /depressing/ music for the piano. The piano is my favourite instrument, after all. So I picked all my favourite piano rock songs, and a couple of others, and then put them together in an order that worked, lyrically and musically. It sounds really good... but if you don't like the piano, well, stay away.

The problem is of course that unlike with the weather mix, no band will do just one songs with a piano in - if they play the piano, it'll feature in a lot of their songs. So I picked my favourites. If this mix were proportional to my taste, there would be a gzbillion more Andrew McMahon songs, but whatcha gonna do.
