People Look to You

People look to you to justify their actions, good or bad. We want to believe we matter when it's convenient and that we don't when it's not. But eyes are always on us just as our eyes are always on what's in front of us too. We all make up the whole. Our actions, reality as we know it.

Yeah, you're working,

building a mystery,

and choosing so carefully.

Wooden Eyes

Me&Muff made up, Dressing Room, Summer Brave last November

Right now, even after two-face washings and a shower, I've got a bunch of eyeliner stuck to my lids. It's from the One-Acts last night. (Side: Very much enjoyed the experience--very grateful for the cast and all those who came out to support the show.) I use liner pencil. After I shower, my eyes always hurt. They don't sting. They hurt. Like someone is poking my eye. Today I realized, uh doy, I am basically putting wood shavings in my eyes when I wear liner. Huh.

I can't believe so many people do this on a regular basis. I guess a lot of girls have moved over to liquid, but I still prefer pencil. Bu, I am putting wood in my eye. So, there's that. I wonder if in a couple ears all liner pencils will be discontinued because some scientist will be like "Uh...we should prove how this causes cataracts." And, then, poof, it will be a highly known fact that eye pencil is terrible for you. Even then, will I actually stop using it? I mean, I doubt it would be breaking news that using an eye pencil is bad for you. When would I find out? Has such a study actually already been done? I don't even know!
