Very well. :)



Good lawdy....I'm not a fan of makeup to begin with. $600 of it? Daaaamn.


And I suppose the society which encourages its use sucks as well. But still, daaaamn.

On a side note...who the hell has $600 worth of make-up related stuff? I'd have a serious sit down if my wife spent anything near that on makeup.

I'm sure you spend $600 dollars on things she finds frivolous :p

As I side, she might be a professional, or it could be a serious hobby of hers.

Well it goes like this....

Makeup, for her, if not most women, becomes a collection. You pick up a 15-20 dollar thing here, there, gifts, etc.

on top of the bag itself which is probably 40 bucks, and the brushes (the brushes are the most expensive thing, a mirror, etc.

it adds up.

You know a lot about make up.
Maybe too much...

My gf just called. said her car had been broken into. They broke the window. It looks like all they took was her make up bag.

The problem is (aside from the obvious) that make up bag probably has 600 bucks worth of shit in there. Her brushes are 100 bucks each, plus all the make up, which is expensive.

And then she has to get the window fixed

and she doesnt have a job, and is trying to get one and its really hard right now to find a job.

ugh. i'm just pissed.

100 bucks for make up brushes??

Maybe someone who went to too many tanning salons in her youth so now she has to laquer away the rawhide.

Wow that sucks. Us guys might laugh at $600 make up, but for a girl that's like a high end laptop for us. When your main hobby instrument is stolen it really sucks.

Probably won't cover the makeup, unfortunately. Homeowners/renters insurance probably would cover it, but you don't want to make a claim for $600 (probably would be less than the deductible anyway).

Some asshole broke the window in my wife's car to get a GPS that was worth at most $100. $1400 damage. I wouldn't be opposed to cutting off the hands of thieves.

You should probably move to Somolia :p

I haven't seen the obligatory "pics of girlfriend" yet. Maybe I didn't read closely enough?
