I just discovered that for $500, I can make a pin-up calendar of myself! The price may sound steep, but
Shameless Photography not only does the photography, but hair and make-up and outfit. Basically, the package includes a makeover and a photoshoot and tons of high-res pics of yourself! Plus, you get to be a pin-up girl for a few hours!
I am sorely tempted. The thought of being transformed into a sexy sex kitten and forever immortalized calendar girl draws me in. The studio's in Brooklyn, so I might inquire. However, my minivan needs a new ball bearing and paint job, not to mention this damned student loan. Le sigh. Maybe next year.
In otherly news, I am completely falling in love with my Slanket. A month ago, I thought this whole "blanket with sleeves" concept was ludicrous. Those Snuggie commercials make the whole thing look whack, yo.
And then it got cold. I like lying in my bed with my laptop, but the winter chill became too much to bear. I discovered that huddling under my comforter while surfing the Web was a tad difficult, so I jokingly posted a Snuggie consideration on Facebook. Someone informed me of the Slanket. And now that I have one, I know the Slanket came first and is bigger, better, and badder than the damn Snuggie. I am a slave to the Slanket's power and a full believer.
People have conducted studies on the Slanket vs. Snuggie, and the Slanket almost always wins!
Conclusion: The Snuggie is a cheap imitation. The Slanket rules.
Teehee, I even enjoy the
website description of mine: "Maybe she's laying in a tree branch stretched out in the shade, or maybe she's chasing down her next meal with cubs in tow. Either way she looks real good doing it, know why? It's the spots. Some people say a leopard can't change her spots. I say, why would she want to?"
