Widget- I am SO with you! I can''t get enough of this movie either! I love the scene where Mr. Darcy follows Elizabeth in the rain and he professes his love for her and she really lets him have it for involving himself in the broken heart of her sister and her failed courtship with his friend. Sigh!... |

I had my wisdom teeth removed by a medical testing group in Austin, TX. I was in college and poor! Not only was the surgery free, but I got paid $400 to have them test Vioxx on me as an anti inflammatory for post wisdom tooth removal recovery. This was, of course, before Vioxx was found to be danger... |

I agree with the other posters that the lipstick is too heavy. I would go for a more neutral lip and glam those pretty eyes of your up more! :) Good luck! |

I know you were looking for something more bubbly, but if you ever want a great wine that fits your description of the flavors you like, try: Cloudy Bay Savignon Blanc or Chardonnay. You can get it for about $30 and it is YUM! |
