I am unable to make any decision by myself. Which of these shoes:
to go with this dress: [link] ?
Please to be advising.
Or none of those. Dammit. I don't like anything.
I gave her everything... jewels, beautiful dresses -- with beautiful girls in them.

Hmmm. I think I like the second ones best. I couldn't take two steps in the third. Well, I could, but it would be pretty funny.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
So, at the risk of sounding too much like Hecuporn, I was wondering about getting my hair cut when I get to San Francisco. It's a month since I last had it cut, and it was SO nice getting it cut by an English-speaking person in the Western world, rather than doing the whole wave-hands-and-draw-sketches-and-pray routine. The last time I got it cut here it was butchered, to the point that I eventually cracked and put my hands over my head and yelled "stop! stop! enough! no more!" in panic-stricken Arabic. So I'm sort of tempted to leave it another month and then get it cut in SF.
Is this a bad idea? 'Cause I'll arrive with my hair looking crappy, I guess, but then I could have the whole fun of having it cut in the Western world, which would rock... is it expensive? Is it impractical?

Mostly lurking...
Oh, Aimee, I LOVE those last ones!

I don't think so.
Fay, that sounds like a great idea - I'm sure a localista can advise on where/who to go to.

Fay in consulting localistas you probably should define "expensive". I've read some non-rich Buffistas casually mention very interesting numbers when discussing hair care.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I like the second pair, or the 4th pair, Aimee.
Fay, I'm sure some of the SFers would be able to recommend places. (Mine is much too far south of SF to be useful).
Speaking of which, today has just been incredibly stupid and gross so far, and I need distraction. I am getting my hair done this afternoon, and I think I am going to change the color.
What color would people recommend? Maybe a chestnut brown?
Also, if a dress is 46 inches from the waist to the hem, and I am only about 42 inches, would a crinoline and heels be enough to make up the difference, or would I probably need to get it hemmed?

I think the crinoline will make up most of the difference, but Jilli or JZ might be me able to opine based on actual knowledge.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
I think a crinoline and heels ought to fix it, probably. I have a ballgown-length crinoline you can borrow if you want to test that theory.
