Friday Night Ritual

My Friday nights are epic:

Married At First Sight
Love, Lust or Run
Love at First Swipe
Say Yes To the Dress Atlanta


Friday nights are my "late night" and mom and I stay up to watch TLC and FYI. First it's Married at First Sight and we talk about all those crazy women who married a guy and are now complaining that he is trying to be a good husband and they don't even know them. Where are these guys?! Why didn't I find them?! They seem so nice and cute! Or maybe there was a guy I missed...

Then I learn about how to get dressed for your psychological space on Love, Lust or Run. This week I realized that most people use make up to cover things up. And thus is why I am not entirely comfortable in it! I don't feel the need to cover or mask- unless I am at work cuz that woman, the Wicked Witch of the West End, isn't the real me anyway. I just don't want to put in the effort to not be myself, like I am covering up something. Unless I am at work where I am covering all my insecurities and putting my bravest foot forward. So maybe a nice look for work will work. I have had my suits of armor before. Perhaps I should go back to that to fully embrace the person I am when I'm not at work.  Also, solid, solid, print/texture. Thanks Stacy.

Love at First Swipe is great to really start to think about how one looks online. I have some more thinking to do about that. Like wiping the ex from my pictures, just so everyone knows I am actually single and serious about it. I am supposed to be engaging with the internet more anyway.
Tips and tricks:don't lead with your boobies and show pictures of yourself doing the activities you are interested in so you will attract like-minded people.

Say Yes to the Dress? Of course! I will need with a dress sometime eventually. Just practicing for the real thing. And watching tragic catty drama in the bridal salon. Duh.

I always mean to put on a mask and do my nails or something but I usually get distracted by the dishes, Lumosity and blogging. Often in that order. I did manage to put on my new lipstick, so that is a step! It will get better with wine. Everything gets better with wine.

Spending time on the couch with mom on a Friday night? Priceless. But again, better with wine. Or maybe I had some earlier...


Blogger Glasses!! You know me. There is shopping somewhere. But I blame this one on mom- she was insistent I get computer glasses to keep out the blue light...
