This week's theme is Beauty [Beauty-Related] and here is mine from How to Live Safely in a Science Fictional Universe by Charles Yu (p. 27):
I will say, though, that it's hard to stay in shape in a recreational time travel device. I eat a lot of ramen. There isn't enough room to do push-ups. Sometimes I pick up Ed and curl him a few times.
Trust me, that's about as beauty-related as it gets. The book is pretty dense with science fictional techno-babble. Male beauty...it's all about the muscles and staying in shape.

Great choice! This definitely works for this theme! I was stumped for a bit too!
Seems like a guys idea of beauty to me! LOL
Congrats to your son, what an accomplisment!
This made me giggle, especially the part about "picking up Ed and curling him."
Thanks for stopping by this morning. I noticed in your profile that you are in Bloomington. My husband lived there during his childhood and he has fond memories of it. Have a great day!
LOL, cute.

Oh, I struggled with this theme as well. One would have thought beauty related snippets would have been easy..:) But, well.. we surely have some interesting reads
This is something different.. but beauty related nonetheless =)
Great snippet!
