I have long hated my eyebrows. They are thick and bushy and not very lady-like, I'm convinced.
I've been known to examine them in the rear-view mirror when driving long distances, and when best pal Jodi is along for those rides, she has to listen as I contemplate my plans to reshape them and subsequently better my life.
"They are fine," she says. Over and over.
But last weekend when I took the tweezers into my own hands and plucked out globs of eyebrow hair in an attempt to thin them out, her response was different.
"Is it just me or did I create a bald spot on each eyebrow when I plucked today?" I asked.
"Yeah," she chuckled heartily. "I can totally see them." And then, she was gone. Buckled over with laughter.
"It's not funny!" I shouted.
"Trust me," she could hardly get the words out. "It's hilarious."
I learned two things from her that day: 1) I'm going to shut up about the eyebrows, and 2) I'm going to get myself an eyebrow pencil.

somebody waxes mine. it hurts like hell. but it's good to know the brows are in professional hands.
I've never actually noticed yours, so that means they're fine.
Re: roadtrip obsession with eyebrows. We were actually driving caravan and jdoc called me to have these conversations about the shape of eyebrows. Better yet was watching her looking in the rearview mirror while attempting to style eyebrows the entire way. Roadtrip time approaches! Can't wait.
i am in desperate need of an eyebrow wax myself -- i did that for awhile, and it was great. don't know why i gave it up.
i've never noticed your brows either, and in fact have been noting your prettiness lately, so... i think you're fine. ;)
i'm agreeing with professional help. jdoc you need professional help. FOR YOUR EYEBROWS.
I agree with KC. Your eyebrows are the one reason I have a girl crush on you.
There's only one reason to have a girl crush on me? Professional help for the brows?
Not talking about them definitely starts now.
