I think I found my calling-- working in the Etsy office. I am not sure what my position would be, but I'm not going to let such a small trifle get in the way of my destiny. #safeforwork
I used to work for a toy company and there were toys everywhere, in fact we sometimes had to kick and push our way through piles of games and toys to get through a doorway. But I was rarely allowed to play with them! I hope, like me, when the cat's away, the mice at Etsy play! #safeforwork
@rodmanstreet: I work for a rare book and manuscript dealer. My office is a bibliophiles dream! I've been here for 6 years now so I am almost totally desensitized. Boo to that! I hope the Etsy people are wonderfully craft-tastic. #safeforwork
I am swooning over that kitchen, which is nicer than my tiny apartment kitchen and my office kitchen (office kitchen beats apartment kitchen because there is a dishwasher here, and a toaster). Seriously, how can they have bad days at that place? #safeforwork
E) a person who starts their own successful business melting down empty lipstick tubes to make items to be thrown at people who honestly use the term lipstick entrepreneur. #lipstickentrepreneur
I envision "Lipstick Entrepreneur" as another line on Orly Taitz's business card. You know, along with Dentist, Lawyer, and Real Estate Agent. #lipstickentrepreneur
I went to one of those cheesy Pure Romance sex toy parties awhile back, and the saleswoman told me that she was about to quit her "real" job and do Pure Romance full time. I'm guessing that qualifies as Lipstick Entrepreneurship, too—although Lubricant Entrepreneurship would be a more appropriate moniker…
@Kivrin: Honestly, it's a market that isn't experiencing the kind of crunch some others are, or at least that seems to be the case. The sex shop I work in is pretty consistently making significantly more money than in previous years, and many people say that in lieu of spending money on vacations or whatnot, they send the kids to their grandparents'/friends'/etc house for the weekend. That said, I would so never buy anything from one of those parties. Marked up like woah, and the people selling it (by and large) don't know fuck all about what they're doing. #lipstickentrepreneur
@femmina: Yeah, I bought some lube and a cute little hummingbird-shaped vibe (my first). Now that I'm no longer a sex toy virgin, I'll go to a shop (and support local businesses!) for future purchases. ;) #lipstickentrepreneur
I'm trying to imagine what complexion would look good with that orange lipstick in the middle of the photo. It would look ghastly on my pale self, but I can't imagine it looking good on my darker skinned friends, either. #lipstickentrepreneur
@Kivrin: I have chocolate brown skin and I have a bright tangerine lipstick that looks fantastic on me. It's a little bit sheer.
I saw Rose McGowan once with bright vermilion lipstick and it was stunning. It was actually what spurred me to check out some orange/corals, even though I thought it might be just for pale people like her. #lipstickentrepreneur

"Whatever, Avon. Now, who here's interested in investing in my closet organization/life coaching company?"
