Bad Blogger

Upon silent reflection I have come to the realization that I have become a bad blogger. And it's no one's fault but my own. I have been keeping up with everyone else's blogs though.

Things have been going really well lately though. The Avon business I started basically just to get myself some facial creams at a discount is officially making me more money than my day job. And no one is more shocked than I am. I win all kinds of free stuff like costume jewelry at the sales meetings and I wear it, and people will literally buy it off my body if I will let them. I'm going to be an entry in the Avon Fashion Show for my district next month, and I will be hosting my own little Holiday Soiree in November.

I'm also really looking forward to the release of the new Christian Lacroix fragrance through Avon. It smells divine, and of course I'll be getting mine for free.

I have been really impressed with how Avon has been getting some heavy-hitter designers working with them. It makes the products so much easier to sell. The Cynthia Rowley collection of makeup and accessories has sold like hotcakes. the Kenneth Jay Lane jewelry always sells good and I'm sure this new fragrance is going to do very well.

So basically just by happenstance and a little sweat equity, I have doubled my income in the last 3 months. And as my income level has risen, my posting numbers on my blog have plummeted. Partially due to limited time, partially because it seems like all I have to talk about lately is work, my daughter's school and Avon. How interesting, huh?

I even tried starting my little segments like Tuesday's Twins and drink of the week. But I never seem to find time to put together my posts. I thought having a set subject matter and deadline would make posting a sure thing but no dice.

Another aspect of the problem is the fact that while Bravo's programming of late has been fun to watch, none have inspired me to put pen to paper like Project Runway. I miss my show, and I could just cry that we have to wait so long between seasons. At least I have the previous seasons on DVD to keep me company.

First time I've ever been accused of this...

You Are a Normal Girl

You are 40% Good and 60% Bad
Sure you've pulled some bad girl stunts in your past.
But these days, you're (mostly) a good girl.
