All right, go ahead … laugh if you want to. How would you feel if your mom made you put on lipstick and makeup?

Mom used to help me when I was little, but now she makes me put on my own lipstick. It's not that hard if you know what you're doing. I smudge it sometimes, but she always catches it and makes me put it on right.

Oh, sure … I'd much rather be working on my curve ball or building a model airplane, but Mom can be pretty strict when she wants to be. If I don't do as she says today, I'll probably get grounded, which means I won't get my pants back for the rest of the weekend.

You don't think I put on too much eye shadow, do you?
