My Morning Confidence Boost

So.... I should be studying or sleeping, but I am blogging... what's new? So yesterday I got unto the bus for the fourth leg of my trip home from work, and as I got on a girl sitting near the isle brought down her newspaper to reveal her UNIBROW! Now I really do try not to be superficial, but I don't think I'd ever seen one of these things except on TV as a joke. I gasped a little and tried to move on as quickly as possible. (I realize I really do sound like a jerk here)

When I got home I must have had eyebrows on my mind, because while washing my hands, I looked looked at myself in the mirror... and at my eyebrows. No unibrow... thank goodness. Then I remembered that once in high school some girl told me I had funny shaped eyebrows and I started to obsess a little.... "Am I some kind of MONSTER?" After assuring myself that I am at least half-way normal looking, I moved on and enjoyed some Costco pizza and three episodes of Pushing Daisies with my roommates.

Then this morning on my way to work I was waiting for my train and a young woman came up to me, tapped my shoulder, and said "excuse me, I just really wanted to tell you that you have the best shaped eyebrows I have ever seen! Are they natural?" Well let me tell you, these puppies are 100% mine! After a nice 10 minute conversation about plucking, waxing, etc. my friend got off at her stop, leaving me feeling like a million bucks! It's funny how the Lord puts people in your path at just the right time. :)

So here you go - a bona fide picture of the prettiest eyebrows in the world... thank you, thank you very much!
