-Yesterday Paul Reubens (Pee-Wee Herman) came into my store and I helped him pick out a gift: a breathtaking clear quartz crystal cluster. Regular readers may recall that when I worked at MAC, I helped him pick out some blotting papers. At neither time did I get all fangirl gushy or mention that I dressed up as his alter ego for Halloween because I am, you see, a professional. He is terribly soft spoken in person and very polite an unassuming, and I appreciated the fact that he asked if he could use his cell phone in the store.
-While making cut rate liquid latex scars, I have accidentally found a way to make rubber vomit. So if anyone here needs some fake puke, just hit me up. You want carrots? Gummie bears? Corn? I'll add it! 'Cause I'm classy! Probably I'll just make a few hilarious puddles for my own amusement (and possibly my mom's).
-Today's winner of the Finding Your Niche Award goes to
Scary Woman, from craigslist. When I saw the title, I thought it was a movie casting for someone to play a scary woman. But no, it's a woman who apparently is just really good at making scary and weird faces, and she's lookin' for a job. Also, she was a drunk for 30 years. I guess we all have to sit down and evaluate our skills to find our niche in the world, and this woman discovered that looking scary was hers. Best of luck, Scary Woman, I hope you get a call from someone in casting.
I think that's it for the novelty roundup tonight. Honk honk.
