Ok, every girl loves perfume. And men, women love it when you wear cologne. Some of us have signature fragrances, and some of us love to try the ones hot off the shelves.

If you want a brand-new fragrance, be prepared to pay a high price. I think Sephora has the best array of fragrances online.

However, if you can wait a few months, you can get great fragrances at a much more reasonable price.

My two favorite sites:
Ebay--make sure the description says "authentic" and watch hidden, high shipping costs.

PerfumeMart----I LOVE this site! Costs are anywhere from $5-$15 lower than market price. Also, FREE shipping! Plus, they send samples of other perfumes when you order.

Shop on and smell good, folks!

Reason #25,568 why I sometimes think you should take an aptitude test before being able to raise a child. It takes a village my ass, Hill. It takes a parent who knows that his child needs to bathe and brush his teeth.

Story, here.

Thanks for the tip, Jaime.

I posted the following post on my law school's blog, but I thought you would all enjoy as well:

No wonder people have a distaste for lawyers based on a thinking that they unnecessarily complicate things.

I just read this sentence in my Secured Transactions book: Cliff's Ridge's mortgage grants an interest in the real property together with the hereditaments and appurtenances thereunto belonging or in anywise appertaining.

WHAT??

How 'bout those Colts??? I have to say I was one of the ones who was shaking my head at halftime. But in my defense, I had a $10 bet on my Colts with a Buc fan friend. I went to bed thinking I was going to get the "Pay up!" phone call...but much to my surprise woke up, and saw highlights of what some are calling the greatest comeback in NFL history.

And yes, I then made the "Pay up!" gloating phone call.

The news this morning said that a group of college students (most likely slightly intoxicated) went out to the airport and stayed all night until the Colts flew in at 3:30 a.m. The footage was classic. The team came over to the fence and signed autographs. And of course, the students felt the need to take off their shirts. Indiana residents love their sports.

What a birthday for Coach Tony Dungy!

I think this lady is probably just as accurate as the pollsters out in the crazy state of CA.

Name the song AND the artist:

Moonlight,
you're just a heartache in disguise;
Won't you keep my heart from breaking
if it's only for a very short time

Artist HINT: Think morning beverage.

Inside me, there's a thin woman
crying to get out -
But I can usually shut the
bitch up with cookies.

Crushed genitalia AND an empty stomach...not a good day for that guy.

You know how a few days back I was singing the praises of the toilet bowl cleaner I bought off QVC?

Well, they need to work on the marketing for this ladder.

Live TV is GREAT!

Show off those legs ladies and pay homage to a fallen fashion trendsetter.

This made me laugh outloud (maybe it was just the mood I was in).

I often find myself seeing these cars AND Gary Busey and thinking the same thing.

I got home from a LONG day of class tonight and found a big plate of homemade chocolate chip cookies on my kitchen counter from my Gram.

There is something about how great homemade cookies taste. I hope I never outgrow it.

While this is not a traditional beauty tip, I still think you'll find it very useful.

I'm kind of a cleaning product freak. I love trying new formulas and tools. I believe I have found the single-best toilet bowl cleaner and brush in the entire galaxy: Fuller Brush Toilet Cleaning Kit available on QVC.

I have hard water, and I used to end up having to scrub my toilet every three days. It would get that icky brown hard water ring grossness, and I couldn't handle looking at it. Well this stuff remedies that problem, and I scrub my toilet about once every 2 weeks now.

The formula kind of puts a coating over the inside of your toilet and repels the hard water. The brush is great and you can squeeze out all the water without even getting your hands wet (Wouldn't want to mess up that manicure).

And hey, the less we're cleaning, the more beauty rest we can get!

UPDATE: Gennie at Dizzy Girl also has a great beauty tip today.
