I just managed to rip a chunk of skin off my left index finger.

Kind of wish I hadn't done that. It doesn't hurt much, but it is bleeding like a mofo.

I stumbled onto the blog of the guy who played Shrimp Boy, and he called Thief cancelled.

That's such a bummer! When I was trying to figure out what was up with the finale, I did see that the first season order was just the 6 episodes, and they did wrap up beautifully, but I can imagine a next episode -- more of the same, with added lam!

Buffets kind of freak me out.

Oddly, my haircut looks better with bedhead. The fuck?

I was amused that this morning I had the same experience (chopped off a lot yesterday.) Though I suspect yours is longer than mine.

I slept too much this weekend. Kinda screwed up outside plans (though I did spend several hours wandering around outside.)Did get the place clean, hair dyed and nails done yesterday too. Now I have to do stupid laundry. And then maybe Target, a park and maybe grocery shopping. I may put off the last.

Hmmmm...and my head looks like blind squirrels cut it when I wake up. Good thing is that it does style nicely after I wash it.

Mine usually does too. Hairdresser did a slightly different cut (what kind of different? Beats me. I let her decide) and it seems less likely to fall victim to the flathead or smash'n'crimp.

I have really short hair, so it just sticks up all over the place when I wake up. My niece calls it my "cwazy hair."

The family all jumped in the pool during the basketball half-time show. The hair was still damp when I went to sleep. The bedhead this morning was most interesting.

My current haircut does not look better with bedhead. But fortunately, it doesn't look bad with it, 'cause I am really, really lazy. I had a new girl this time, because my regular girl wasn't available on the short notice I gave. But I really had to have it cut before the summer so I went ahead. I think she did a good job, but she was less precise with the razor, and although she stuck to the cut more (she had the pictures) she was less skilled, so the things my regular girl does to make the cut work for me didn't happen.

About the Derby, it really was a lovely race. Everything went smoothly, and it is just so beautiful to watch that calibre of horses run. And I'm happy because my (almost completely random) pick came in second, so i got to pretend that I knew because of my expert analysis of a few minutes of pre-race footage. Hee. So much fun. I love the Derby. I remember watching it with my dad all through my childhood, so I feel connected to that when I watch.

Also? I totally and completely need a Kentucky Derby style hat. To wear with my cargo camo's and Docs. Or maybe just around the house. Need, I tell you.

Kentucky Derby style hat

Is this a particular hat, or the general over-the-top, foofy, big-race hats? The only thing that has had me paying any attention to Preakness coverage is the incredible hats.

I just mean big-race hats. I love them!
