On cosmetic surgery

Out of morbid curiosity, I tried to watch The Swan last night. After about 45 seconds, I had to turn it off. I think the saddest thing about that show is the beauty pageant. It's like saying to the losers, See? You got all this plastic surgery and you're still not pretty enough! Awful, awful show.

The girls and I were recently having a talk about plastic surgery. I was shocked to find out that no one's really opposed to it. I mean, we all think Botox is horrifying, but other things seem okay. I have two friends that want boob jobs, and one that's actually saving up for the procedure. There was a lot of, Oh, I'd do that but not that and whatnot.

At one point, I actually heard myself saying, I wouldn't get anything changed per se, but once things start to fall down and sag, I would maybe get them lifted. It's not really changing anything, more like restoring it. Yeah, who am I kidding?
