Found your blog after searching information for makeup reviews. Thanks for the great information! My name is Irene and I'm involved in an online beauty community website called http://www.ColorMeGorgeous.com. I was hoping that you would have a minute to check out the site and perhaps if you liked what you saw... write about it on your blog? I may be going out on a limb by asking you for promotional help through your blog, but I hope you find ColorMeGorgeous.com to be as news worthy/helpful as I perceive it to be. There's still a lot of work to be done with it, but I'm working on it. It's hard to compete when you're a small fish in a huge sea with huge sites like MUA and the likes, but I do what I can :) My favorite part of the site is the 'critic's corner' where members can review or read up on various product reviews for makeup and skincare. Then there's always the forum, the photo gallery, the ask a makeup artist page, etc. Thanks for your time :) Best, Irene Hi,

In this country and probably world-wide...we have such fixations with height. Men can't be too short and women can't be too tall or else they're considered oddities at best and undesirable as a mate at worst. (E.g., how many women do you know say "I can't date a man that is less that 6 feet tall...Our children will be short"). Sandy had to deal with that (peoples' biased attitudes) and the physical pain her stature brought with it, but she carried herself gracefully and tried to live her life the best way she knew how. I'm praying she is still standing tall in heaven! Rest in peace. In this country and probably world-wide…we have such fixations with height.

I thought I was the tallest woman in the world!! I'm 6'2 & people stare at ME all the time! Although I do get lots of compliments, I couldn't imagine dealing with being any taller. I'm glad she let other people know it's alright to be different; more people need to truly accept that. WOW! I thought I was the tallest woman in the world!!
