I am Lexi Kahn. I live in Boston, by way of New York, by way of a tiny town in Connecticut. I live with Joe. We're DINKS (dual income, no kids). It's a miracle I have made it to my thirties. Thirties! I am SO a Gen X'er -- go ahead, ask me about the 80s. I love books, movies, food, travel, comedy and especially music.

Line drawings and design inspiration: the late, great Shel Silverstein, a true low budget superhero.

Faux Face

Saw a girl out at a rock show whose pale shoulders and neck stood out in stark contrast to her heavily-rouged, tan-from-a-bottle face. I might have been staring, but it was only because I had to make sure she wasn't wearing a mask. I don't know what to do when I see a chick who left her home having made up her face only from chin to forehead. You kinda wonder if her mirror is too small. Or maybe her mirror is big enough but she wore a turtleneck whilst applying foundation.

NOT that it's any better to over-lighten, either.

Blend, is all I'm sayin'.
