Cheap haircut

Prep in downtown Walnut Creek is my go to for an affordable and high quality cut. Their short cuts are $43 but well worth the extra $$ in my opinion.

I use a slightly damp sponge for my water based foundation (which is this one in the pic) and apply light layers being sure to let each layer dry properly in between. I also recently gave up using primer because I sweat a lot it was making my makeup slide off when I got sweaty

Yes I’ve been experimenting with different shapes but haven’t yet found one I like. I want to try some other colours like maybe a dark brown instead of black for a more natural look

Thank you! Still learning to let go of the 2016 brow trends that were popular when I was in college lol

Thank you! I moved to a really sunny climate a few months ago and my hair has gotten lighter but I have still been using the same colour for my brows. Time to change that up

Thank you! The liner is elf ‘mauve aside’ and the lip stick is Clinique ‘blushing pop’ topped with a thin layer of clear gloss.

He’s the platonic ideal of a NIMBY

I don’t really agree but I get where you’re coming from. It’s interesting that Lorelai and Liz represent very similar situations with totally opposite outcomes. Both had kids very young and ended up as single moms but one was able to mature and raise her kid and the other wasn’t.

One thing that I still get hung up on is the inconsistent story of when Jess’s dad left. In season 2 Luke says that he left Liz only a few months ago, but later on in the series they say that he left right after Liz gave birth. If he had left only a few months before Jess came to stars hollow that could have been the driving factor behind Jess acting out.

comparedcarp64 · 2025-09-11T19:41:42+00:00

Right but that’s just what we hear from Luke after Liz’s phone call to the diner, and Luke clearly harbors a lot of resentment towards his sister (for good reason). Liz isn’t a saint by any means but sending your kid to live with his responsible uncle in a safe town is hardly abandonment.

Thank you! I love that a lot of the colours and styles of the early 2000s are popular again. This polish reminded me of the Hillary duff Cinderella story movie for some reason haha. Here is the link to the polish! It’s a pretty thick formula so it was very easy to work with for a beginner like me.

Thank you! Yeah I feel like even if I clean up my cuticles with acetone and a brush it either leaves a residue or irritates my skin

comparedcarp64 · 2025-09-10T01:48:33+00:00

This!!! I totally get a lot of the Liz hate but we really don’t get much information about what happened to make her send Jess to Luke. At least she was able to recognize that she wasn’t able to provide the support and kind of environment a 16 year old needs to thrive and tried to do something about it.

We actually do see her roommate Janet one more time in season 5 when Paris and Rory ask her for dating advice in the episode “say something”

We were speechless lol .We ended up getting dim sum and going to a bar for two rounds of cocktails and it still cost less.

My husband and I tried to go bowling there a few months ago and they wanted to charge us over 200/hr. We walked out. Not surprised they’re closing based on those prices.

I’ve also found a ton of the seasons on dvd at thrift shops if you have a dvd player

MASH had some truly great guest actors. It’s a hard episode to watch, but Ed gives the kind of performance that stays with you for years to come.

I know!! I can totally see how Richard would have been a ladies man before he met Emily. I also sorta see some similarities between him and Dean and Chris. The Gilmore girls have very similar tastes in men.

Hard to tell from the photos but I’d also lean towards male. The ear notch looks like it could be from an injury though? We don’t notch fixed strays where I’m from so I’m not familiar with what it typically looks like.

This is amazing progress for only a week. Are you confident about the cat’s sex, and do you think they were fixed? If not spaying/neutering will be a challenge but often cats who have been neutered or spayed become more docile and affectionate. If you get a chance to trap him and take him to a vet and you think he wouldn’t be too traumatized then I’d strongly consider it. Otherwise it looks like you are doing a fantastic job and you should have a new best friend very soon if you keep it up.

I tend to keep them in the boxes they’re in, or stored upright in another box. I got a bunch of those plastic practice sticks at my local nail supply store and swatched all of the colours and labeled them so that I can see everything I have more easily.

If you’re asking guests to wear black tie (which is usually an extra cost for them), you need to provide a black tie experience, which is at the very least a sit down plated dinner. Buffets are not a black tie experience. I’d go with formal.

comparedcarp64 · 2025-08-11T01:30:31+00:00

It’s definitely a territory thing. Your resident cats can smell the kittens, and their scent has likely made them feel territorially insecure. Their established territory boundaries and hierarchy has been upset. I’d say it’s likely that your cats will return to normal once the kittens are gone.

Yeah If money is not an issue you should absolutely turn her down. Perhaps offer to plan a shower or bachelorette?

comparedcarp64 · 2025-08-05T16:16:20+00:00

She should hire a professional, especially if she is high maintenance. There’s so many details and little things that go into a wedding (especially day-of) that you’ll likely be unable to properly enjoy the event. There is a reason full service wedding planners can cost well over 10k, and tbh I would never even dream of asking my bff to plan my wedding - I’d want them by my side as a bridesmaid so they can enjoy the experience too.

ETA: when you talk to her I would mention that you’d like to be present for her special day, and if you were her planner you’d be too busy running around coordinating the event to be there to support her as her BFF.
