A Hypothetical Twist To A Common Occurance

This one is geared more toward the ladies.

I'm not a girly girl and I'm not into make-up, but once in a blue moon I will wear it and some days I need it a lot more than others. If you can relate them I'm sure you've encountered this scenario before. You wake up to a day of hysteria. Meetings, family gatherings, dinner with the In-laws and whatever else. You're rushing around the house trying to get everything in order before you leave (I'm a neat freak) so you can have time to run to the store before the clock starts ticking. Alright, first thing's first. I go in the bathroom and brush my teeth, get the hair tamed and then reach for the make-up bag that hasn't been touched in a month, only to realize I'm out of foundation. Great. So now I get to go to the store looking like Lady Gaga's impression of Big Foot while I look for my foundation and finish up some last minute shopping. Well of course they don't have the right shade so I go with another brand of whatever I think is closest. I figure anything is better than this, right? After all is said and done, I get back home and ready to begin the transformation from Big Foot to Acceptable. After I open and apply the foundation I start to notice a glow. It's no where near the color I thought it was. Way too light for a native Floridian. Well, I know the day isn't slowing down for me so I figure out a way to make it work and rush out the door. I can only imagine with a face as light as this, it isn't going to be long before the paparazzi starts flashing and on-lookers start handing me copies of "New Moon" asking for an autograph. Nothing is ever easy.
