Susan, I'm glad the doctor's appt went very well, the testing at the Children's Hospital sounds like a really good thing.

I got up early today so I put on make up for work. Everyone noticed. Even if they didn't know it was make up that made me look different they noticed. I got compliments and I may wear it on a more regular basis.

However, I have a question about eye shadow. I'm never sure which color to wear. Right now I have some plumy and pinky colors and a neutral. I'm sure there's something more flattering, but I'm not sure what it would be. Any suggestions of colors? I'm on a drugstore budget.

Good~travelling vibes for Raq & Co.

And in juliana!drama! news, I had an actor drop out of the show I'm directing in January (The Rainmaker, he was supposed to play Starbuck). I promptly offered it to a friend of ours, who also had to turn it down, so now I've offered it to Carl - the guy I dated when Z & I were splitsville. I asked Z if he was okay with it, and he says he is, but oh, there is potential!drama there. Mostly, right now, there is amusement at the incestuousness of theater.

He would be a really great Starbuck, though. All sorts of dreams and intensity.

Yes, he did get his haircut. And looks gooooood. And speaking of haircuts...

Also? My sister and the manager of the local Gap put together an outfit for me for the rehearsal. It's informal-kinda casual-and I got it for less than $20 because I had a gift card. So...fruition.

That's a great hair cut Aimee! Glad you got an outfit for the dinner.

Em is so cute!

Jesus, Aimee! Big change! ("Big" in the sense of "dramatic and also stunning enough that I'd hate you if I didn't love you which I do, so it's cool.")

Also? Want to crawl into bed now, please, and sleep until April. Thanks, ever so.

Very pretty haircut, Aims.

Great haircut, Aimee!

Calli, what Cindy and Nora said. Not only can you get most places via public transit of some sort, but Boston proper is small enough that you can walk the entire length of it in around an hour.

Once you get out to the suburbs, it becomes less convenient, but most places are accessible via the T in one form or another.

Thanks guys! I hope Em recognizes me. I dropped her at school and then got my hair cut!

You look great!

I'm sure Em will know her mama.
