You Know How Sometimes You Can't Think of a Title...

but you don't want to call it "Untitled" because that would sound pretentious and also like some big painting by a featured artist? Hmmm...you don't know how that is. Well, uh...anyway. I have been MISSING Y'ALL. I have been spending a paltry amount of time with my dear blogger friends. Here's a little love note. It is written in lipstick. Did you expect anything else?

Admittedly I look like a big goober standing in the corner (in my gown...uh huh), but it was the only way to avoid the flash. By the way, it was fun to bring the word "goober" back from the 80s. Also, all that lipstick came right off with a bunch of Windex so I am now a big advocate of writing stuff on the bathroom mirror in red lipstick. Love notes, to-do lists, whatever. It's all good.

And now the deepest expression of gratitude to those dear readers who have left comments on my recent posts. Seeing your comments has been a beautiful highlight among the stresses of the past couple of weeks. It feels wonderfully cozy to return to Lipstick-land.

Regarding life's stresses...
You know how sometimes there are distractions or exhaustions or interruptions that prevent you from having the time or energy to adore the people that you adore. Sometimes it's hard to express the love that fills you or the attention that is brimming beneath the surface of the swamp that has become your mind. You know how that is? Ahh...so I am not alone.

So maybe you don't know how that is. You really don't? Dear friend, you are most fortunate and I am grateful for you.

Gentle readers, thank you for remaining. Hugs and of course, kisses with lipstick.

Hi Lipstick -- For you and Privilege, I added photos to my fried rice post (though, actually, none are of fried rice). You can see what a typical Cantonese home dinner looks like.

Well it is nice to see your smiling face in the picture. Life comes first, one day I'll be in jail or in a relationship and you'll have time to catch up.
