Carrie was an utter gift.

I normally don’t like to add to posts, but this is just one of my favorite things about her. I guess Carrie Fisher just carried glitter everywhere, because she did the same thing at Indiana Comic Con when she was there in 2015. She actually kinda got in trouble because she was taking so long with each person who came for autographs because she wanted to “baptize them” with her glitter. She wanted to make sure that everyone who saw her got some glitter.

tldr; she was truly a gift and i sobbed at work when i got a notification that she passed, and i’m crying now as i type this.

So what if we all picked a day and wore glitter for her? 

Next May the 4th seems appropriate.  Dedicate Star Wars day to the original princess?

LET’S DO IT!!

I am so on board with glitter for Carrie day.

She talked about how her therapist (I think it was in her book Shockaholic but I can’t check right now) always knew when she was having an ‘off’ time in her head depending on how much glitter she’d show up wearing to appointments. It was her way of making the world sparkle and shine even when it felt dark. It made her feel better. Evidently she wanted to share that with others.

I purposely went out and bought glittery body dust in her honor. I’m going to welcome in 2017 lit up like a firework. Ain’t none of y’all going to ever be able to hug me ever again without getting covered in glitter. It’s on. We’re doing this. And on May 4th we’re going to make the world shine.

For Carrie.

I’m friends with a makeup artist who worked for a bunch of various comic conventions. Basically, she was hired to make the celebrities up so they would looked polished and professional for photo ops and the like. She did Carrie Fisher’s makeup pretty often for these convention appearances, and she said she’d spend all this time giving Carrie a natural, understated look, and every time, EVERY TIME, she would finish, and ask Carrie if she was okay with how she looked, and Carrie would say, “yeah, it’s great, whatever”, and then my friend would turn her back for like, .02 seconds, and by the time she turned back around, Carrie Fisher would have somehow covered herself in glitter, like some sort of sparkly ninja.

IT GOT BETTER
