Simple motivaters in my life. People think I am a feminist, animal activist, and healthnut. They got it all wrong, I am just lazy, cheap and guilt driven.
Likewise, welp, except for the guilt driven part. Fortunately 'bicycle rider' is the category people put me in... though most of 'em do assume I eat healthier than I do... which is not a bad thing! If people expect you to eat healthy, it's easier to do.

I *do* sometimes ponder how much money I have saved, and how much less environmental impact being make-up free is... but that's secondary to "I just don't have a good reason," because I don't really need it.

I do get raccoon eyes now and again... and I found that a pervasive smile helps immensely.
