we know. And your not supposed to know its brand new or that we expended any extra energy on you. It has nothing to do with you really.....its all part of our evil plan to just put a spell on you.

Even if we don't like you....we can feel confident and know that at least it wasn't because we wore some frumpy old thing with stains on it, or some unflattering out of style jeans...or because a hair was out of place...whatever. Appearance is under control, and that is half the battle to being calm and cool on a date.

about 1/4. The other quarter depends on the guy and his ability to make things easy or horribly awful. (adust alcohol as neccessary)

It has nothing to do w/ that; it's just innate. And it's all about the shoes.

Hah, I knew it!

But quick question. Out of that 50 bucks, what are the non-permanent items, like hair and nails, and what are the items that you keep, like shoes and dresses?
