Today I'm Looking Good

[joggerjayne]

Is it just me?

Some days, you look in the mirror, and think ... "Looking good, J.!"

Ten years younger than your age.

Glowing, sexily.

Just ... HOT !!

And other days ...

... your hair is crap ... your complexion is all pasty ... your eyes are dull ...

... your posture is just not working ...

... you just look, frankly, a bit sh!t.

Why? Why why why why why ??????

We know we CAN look good sometimes ... so why do we have days when we just look ...

... a bit pants ?

[Dris]

Its the fecking drink !!

It's all in the eyes, JJ. :-)


Welcome back from you ski trip. Even your post sound glowing so I'll not ask how it was.

[ChuckFickens]

I'd say you are much more likely than me to look in a mirror and think "Looking good, J.!"

Mainly because I'm a M.

[joggerjayne]

LOL

Well ... that might be a factor.

But sometimes, don't you think ...

"What the **** is my hair doing today??"

[joggerjayne]

I did my own asterisks there.

[society]

Hahaha Chuck! Why didn't I think of saying that? You are always so witty. :-)

....no :(

[Dris]

oops sorry -hope you had blast -bet your skin is glowing and your eyes are twinkling;)

I do hate those days though ...then other days your skin is 'tight' and 'bright' and it makes you want to strut your stuff....around Tesco :(

[ChuckFickens]

Why does "I'm a M." look and sound wrong, it's seems like it should be "I'm an M," but M definitely isn't a vowel.

[craft1948]

Usually when I'm looking 'good' I'm not going anywhere :-(

[joggerjayne]

LOL pa_ul

You are so lucky ... to not have the hair dependency.

Sometimes, it behaves ... you are the L'Oreal girl, or Brilliant Brunette.

And other times ... you have inherited your hair from the local tramp.

I often look in the mirror and think, "yeah I look alright today" and then I see other women and how good they look and feel like pants.

[Dris]

lol Paul -youre like my husband he has since I met him 13yrs ago had a no 2 and has no problem
JJ -I have just past shoulder length curly wavy hair.(straightened in pic)....and I twist it up -whats the point I ask myself - so yip with you there -o to have a stylist on hand 24/7...

[joggerjayne]

Dris and Craft ... YES !!!

On those days when it somehow comes together ...

... why are you never doing anything worthwhile !!??

(ps ... I do have a bit of an "Alpine glow" at the moment ...

... next time I see the BF, it will have faded to "English Seaside Town Pasty"

[joggerjayne]

milly ...

I have a pal who is effortlessly, annoyingly, good looking.

If a guy sketched his perfect woman ... it would be her.

I'm never sure if it's good to be with her (because she draws everyone in the room closer to us) ...

... or bad to be with her (because she makes the rest of us look like cows' arses).

[askyourgran]

I'm a J too JJ and I know how you feel, problem is most of my days are now the bad posture squinty eyes and pasty face sort. Only yesterday I looked like Bo Derek, and had stuff all to do except make dinner,

[joggerjayne]

Oh, pinky ... that is SO true ...

If you ever fall out of bed, pull on your joggers, and go to the paper shop ...

... you ALWAYS run into people like that.

And you never look ... sexy, bedhead, tousled.

You always look ... bleary, blotchy, sleep-deprived.

[tiggerblue10]

I have days like that although over the last year or so I just look awful every day. Hopefully I will have some looking good days when I get back to my normal weight.

[joggerjayne]

Thing is, Tiggy, we know that we're gonna look pretty average, most days.

If ONLY we could somehow predict those days when we were going to feel good about how we looked ...

We could schedule all our meetings and dates for those days.

Life would be SO much simpler.
