Dermablend is not that popular a brand. Yet, it is popular enough to have its own area in Ulta Beauty stores. However, when I went to the new store in Hartsdale, no one knew where this makeup could be found. Instead, I was directed to a different brand with a similar sounding name. So I left the store, and had some falafel for dinner.
Once finished with dinner, I took a leisurely drive to Ulta's store in Dobbs Ferry, where I hoped that I'd have more success with their sales help. When I found the makeup, I had to make a decision: Do I take a slightly different shade of makeup, or do I mail order the shade I really want. Since the shade in stock works for me, I figured that a bird in the hand is better than one in the bush. (Too bad that I didn't know that Dermablend's website was holding a 25% off sale. But I digress.) So, I bought the makeup, and took the roundabout way home. (There was an accident blocking all Northbound lanes of the Saw Mill River Parkway, preventing me from using that route home.)
I decided to make a quick stop at Trader Joe's to pick up some food. As usual, I bought more than planned. While checking out, the male cashier made some polite talk and said "Hope to see you tomorrow." Normally, I wouldn't think twice about this, save that he used the word "Tomorrow". Could he be trying to send a subtle signal? If so, he will be disappointed - both as Mario and as Marian, I prefer the company of women. And yet, I can take this as meaning that my feminine presentation is getting better than I might have thought. What do you think?
