Hello, welcome to Fat Mascara. I'm Jessica. I'm Jen. Hi, everyone. Welcome to our beauty podcast.

So listen, listen, we're recording this on a day that feels very, feels very special to me.

We are not only almost two years into a global pandemic. Oh, no, no, no. So

we are recording on the day, not my daughter's birthday, but we're recording two years ago today.

I went into labor. I had an extremely long labor. It was really cool.

So I don't know. I just, whatever, what if Lake's birthday was in March and people were listening to that.

I was on labor for like a month. I cannot believe two years, two years ago, two years ago.

I remember I, you know, I took a week off before her due date. And I remember people like,

do you really want to do that? Do you really want to do that? You know that you're going to have to,

like, you know, you'll have to take it off the back end. Like in America, you don't get that much

time off. And it was like, I think people thought it was like very luxurious. Why waste a week

when she's not here yet. Yeah. And I was like, um, because like, I'd like to just kind of have a

minute to like clean my apartment and like, you know, like how I welcome a new life.

And just like take, take a minute, like get a pedicure and like a bikini wax and just, you know,

maybe you got a bikini wax before you gave birth. Yeah. Oh my god. Just like, just like a,

I just wanted to take a minute. Just wanted to get the things done that I knew I wasn't going to

be able to like get done for two, for 18 more years. Exactly. And I like, I remember I dropped

like my taxes off. And then I went and watched a movie and ordered like Burger King and possible

a whopper. Meal is the best ever. I did. I raised, I think I raised it on to it. It's the most amazing

thing. Please never take it off the menu. Please never take it off the menu. Please never take it

off the menu. Please never take it off the menu. And then at my body relaxed, my body, it was like,

I went, I just sunk into the couch. My body, it was the most blissful afternoon.
