Yeah. Not as much as I used to, but at one point, I had a several hundred dollar a year beading habit.

Plei, I read this as "several hundred dollar a year breeding habit" at first and spent several minutes blinking quizzically at the screen.

ION, off to self-dye my hair a nice bright red and then to the first of several holiday parties. I'm all spolied on parties today--just got back from Emma's 1st birthday party. The Princess now has a pony.

Okay, a rocking pony, but still.

Didn't need to be said twice.

Did the birthday girl wear pink, Kristin?

For reasons that escaped me, I Netflixed Bride Of The Wind, but ended up spending most of the movie's duration googling Alma Schindler instead. Man, what a lame movie! Half the web sites I read about her were more exciting than the movie itself. I guess they didn't want to paint her truly carefree and not a little scandalous.

Allyson, if you find a guy who doesn't want a girl that's bored by comics, just send him to me. I've rarely found guys who get excited by it, unless they're the creepy stalker type.

You know that comic strip I got for my birthday? The artist is a dissolute Williamsburg painter who plays D&D and is probably in love with you already, even if he doesn't know it.

in love with you already, even if he doesn't know it

That seems to be the prime time for guys to be in love with me.

Did the birthday girl wear pink, Kristin?

She wore pink plaid! She also had a pink tiara (that she pretty much refused to wear), a brand new pink magic wand, which she adored, a pink throne and a pink castle cake.

Plaid? Not gingham???

Well, she's only one. Plenty of pink left for her.

Do I look like Beyonce? I uploaded four pictures into this face recognition software (stolen from Victor), and Beyonce was #1 once, and in the top 4 the other three times. Also appearing often was Janet Jackson and Charlize Theron. It's pretty cool -- it obviously knows I'm black...inasmuch as "know" applies, and blonde. Most of my matches were one or the other.

At least there was no Dennis Rodman.

eta: unrelatedly, you can get search results removed from google, if you're big enough.

Maybe it was gingham? I admit, I am sadly uninformed about the difference between the two. Either way, it was a very cute dress.

Oh, btw, I've been cautiously playing with the idea of trying a krav class. I'm more than a little freaked out at the prospect, but...thinking about it. Would you mind emailing me the details about where you study and when beginner classes might be?

Also, any news about the MRI?

Plaid. Gingham. Both cute choices.

MRI didn't show anything that explains the headaches or the losses of consciousness, unfortunately. EEG next.

Also, impending insent.

ita, I'm watching Mile High. So far, some of the people are pretty.
