... that creepy ass botox-phenomenon
Posted on: 2007-06-29

From Amanda Palmer's infrequently updated but always amusing blog, on realizing that her wrinkles only show up when she smiles:

the other wrinkles are appearing around my eyes and mouth and show up when I smile. crazy, that. this is that creepy ass botox-phenomenon. if i simply stayed emotion-free, i might look thirty-one forever. but life would blow.

Rock star enters her thirties and seems to get aging right.
