Yesterday (as he does every day) Dusty helped supervise my makeup application. He has very good color sense and usually approves of what I apply. I branched out of the mold and tried a new lipstick color, Dust kept on trying to get a closer look at my mouth, I was cracking up because he was really trying to see what was on my lips. Now and then it seems that Dust wants to sample some of the makeup but I always tell him no, it clearly states on the package that it was not tested on animals, so that means it is not for him.

Well he just wouldn't give up so I gave him a big old kiss on his kitty nose and of course transferred a glob of lipstick onto his fur around his mouth. Oh did he look pretty!!! Hubba hubba! A bit later I had a workman over to do some work on the house and I hadn't thought about this until after he left but what the hell must have been going through his mind to see this cat with lipstick smeared all over it's mouth, the same color that I was wearing no less. Either he must have thought I was half baked and liked to put lipstick on my kitty or that I was perhaps making out with my kitty. How embarrassing, no wonder he was so quiet and looking at me strangely.
