The lip pencil of invisibility. And a grown-up woman’s request for JK Rowling.

Reblogged from Memoirs of a husk:

Are you fraying round the edges? I’m not too bad, but then I never smoked –  not much, anyway. I did buy two packets of Gitanes when I was at university so I could stick the packets on my wall.
