Makeup and charm blog Monday Poll, Vol. 533

thinking about all the kittens I wish I could hug

So…what is the Monday Poll?

Good question! It isn’t, as opposed to its name, an actual poll. It’s just a list of five much more or less random questions I’ve been posting on this blog every Monday morning for the past gazillion years (more than 10!). I love reading your answers, and it helps me get my week off to a great start. ?

1. Where do you typically put on your makeup?

It really depends on the light and what time of day it is, but I typically do it in the same place I write, which is my office at home upstairs. The light from my office window is good and bright until about 4. then it gets a little too dark. any time after that, and I’m probably doing my makeup on the floor in my bedroom.

Oh, and my car! (In the passenger seat, of course.) I am forever putting on makeup in a moving vehicle, it seems!

2. Which would you rather do — an eyelash perm (a.k.a. a lash lift), eyelash extensions or eyelash tint?

Eyelash perm in a heartbeat, because even though I love the idea of extensions, I just know that having that little bit of extra weight on my lashes would drive me crazy.

3. Do you have any psychic abilities?

Other than the ability to psychically predict precisely when my cat gets up to no good? Nope.

But before my tabby sense goes off…the house gets eerily quiet — like the calm before a storm — and then, BOOM. A tiny tabby paw comes out of nowhere and pulls your sandwich off the living room table!

4. Something you’d like to eat today?

I’d love a chopped salad with a hunk of fresh bread and a tall glass of unsweetened iced tea to wash it down.

5. have you ever taken in a stray?

So numerous times! all of my animal companions and I have found each other through the randomness of the universe, but the most significant love, the greatest love, will always be Tabs. He’s my once-in-a-lifetime cat.

Thoughts on books: e-books or the old-fashioned kind?

Last night before bed I started a new book I had a look at from the library, and as I was flipping through the pages to look for pictures or maps (does anybody else do this?!) I got to thinking about whether people still like reading “old-fashioned books” — ya know, the ones with pages! I have a Kindle and even though I’ve used it and liked it just fine, there’s something about feeling the weight of a book in my hand and the pages as I flip through them that I like so much much more than scrolling with my finger on a screen. I might be old school that way though. Which do you prefer?

Your friendly neighborhood charm addict,
