Hello Mutant Rulers

Brooch c/o Ovejita Be!

I was flicking through the interwebs the other day and noticed that an awful lot of people are perfect. This seems fishy to me. Where are your wrinkles and rolls ladies? Nobody has pimples or red spots anymore, and they most certainly don't have clumpy mascara! And then it hit me - we've been taken over by mutants! I welcome our new mutant overlords, but I wish I had caught on earlier. I spent years trying to have flawless this and flawless that, when I should have seen that being 'perfect' is an oddity that only mutant powers can beget.

I'm not a mutant, so I have wrinkles, pimples and little rolls. I actually named my little belly and love handles Bubba Gus (Bubba being my belly, and the two Gus's being my side rolls). My hair has split ends and I'll probably never be a model, but I think I'm okay with just being a regular, non-mutant human person.

I do kind of wish I could control fire or something though...

Hugs and poops,

Nichole

      I get hard on myself sometimes, but you're right, the little imperfections are often the best things about us!

    1. Thanks Teresa! You look beautiful, but I'm glad you're not a mutant :)
      I wouldn't have said you were 29, so there you have it!
      I'm so in love with my new sheep friend. And thanks! I made the earrings myself.

    2. Right there with you. I'll be 30 in a few weeks, but I still get more break-outs than wrinkles. I'll take it.

  3. My mutant thing would be flying, I've always wanted to be able to fly.
    When I was little I had these red mittens, and I used to dream that if I flapped them I could fly anywhere I wanted. It was awesome. Crappy things happening? No problem, I'll just fly away! Awesome.
