*hugs* It sounds like you two are doing a lot of introspective thinking. B needs to be gentle on himself. I know much of the feelings of inadequacy and honestly say had I been better at handling such feelings me and my ex would probably still be together. Some times retrospect adds clarity, one of my regrets is that I did not have the ability to see what was happening in the whole picture because of such negative feelings and emotions. We did not communicate well, and resentments, inadequacies, anger...hurt became the focus. The law of attraction is that one brings to oneself what one focuses on. Negative thought does this to all of us....it only brings misery. With that in mind, life becomes uplifting when we ride the crests....and when it becomes habitual we are on the mountain and there are no valleys. Listen to me...Miz misery herself....grin...I am working it and hope to be on the mountain for good one day.

TGIF, man. Damn.

But enough of that. I have a serious question. Do you guys have any tricks to picking out perfume? I've been having a hell of a time. I've browsed websites, browsed Sephora.com, stuck to trying out one or two scents per day, waiting the 2+ hours... nothing has turned out to be a good signature scent. How do you choose? How do you even start finding out?


Exasperatedly yours,

Hi diz, it is hard one way is to get a feel for what you like....I find learning the perfume industry jargon helps...but that only comes from experience.. in some of the online sites you can order samples. Pay attention to the descriptions....that will help you along the way... I go by what really strikes me...which is not much....I like Elizabeth Taylors "White Diamonds" but it is very strong....so I try to dab just tiny bit...but it smells wonderful later on. A mens scent I like is Anteous Pour Homme by Chanel...that has a wonderful smell but it is very expensive. I have not tried the female version of that yet....hmmm....

I discovered last night that B is demanding perfection from himself. Now where this expectation is coming from, I have no clue, as he kinda non-confronted that question. It could be cultural- B is Chinese and the Asian culture in general has very high expectation levels. Or it could be personal. I don't know.

He's debating whether or not to tell his mother when she meets up this weekend in Philadelphia for his cousin's Uni graduation. We shall see...

Hormonally yours,

morning all-sounds like everyone is having as good a week as coudl be expected, here it is crazy-we are so busy, its good, but exhausting. Wasn't Aussie looking for a job in Canada?

weather is gorgeous-finally.

i am going to a funeral for a 4 year old today. Tad was diagnosed with brain cancer when he was less than a year old. His parent have a great attitude-he wasnt expected to make it a year-but saw 4 and a half-they are sad but grateful for the time they had. He has a 7 year old sister who was his guardian and protector-I think it may be hardest for her.

I know I gotta keep it together as mom is one of C's best friends.....(deep exhale) guess it is a good thing I am well practiced in the art of hiding my feelings eh.

OK-gotta get the reserrvations prepped then some signs up-we have had to scale back our office hours-the flip side of a booming economy is that there is no one to hire. I got 6 out of 6 staff back from last year-but we were running 2-3 short last year and now we have 3 that arent available but will be middle of June. Two of the ones that I do have are almost 60 and shouldn't be working as hard as they are.

More coffee for me-sorry-too fuzzy for individual greetings today.

Yeah, I've been doing that, but I don't know what to look for in the descriptions. For example, I love the smell of sandalwood. So I've been looking for that as a basenote. But... there are so many!

Most of the ones I've tried have been very nice, and I'd love to purchase later on when I have extra cash to spend. But I'd really like to find a new scent I can wear every day. I'm also highly allergic to a lot of synthetic scents, which doesn't help. I've lucked out until today. I tried the newest perfume by Badgley Mischka. Within minutes I had a sheer, splitting headache. >.< This afternoon was downright torturous. Oy.

But... anyway. I guess I'll just keep doing what I've been doing. I have a new list of things to try.
