I have achieved soup. It's even pretty good soup, even though it's made from nothing fresh. (Sauteed frozen onions and carrots in some olive oil, added water and "soup base," then egg noodles and canellini beans.) Really, soup with egg noodles is like the greatest comfort food ever.

I have cool new anime hair. Bright red highlights, bangs, severely angled bob. Loves it!
I need new hair.
Dear Santa,
I need new dark dark dark brown hair (with a touch of mahogany) and a cool angled bob. Please please please.

I'm glad soup was achieved, Hil. There's something very comforting about egg noodles. I hope you get to the store soon.
Dear Santa: Is that where my hair has gone? To give to Aimee? Shame! And it's not even dark brown, nor mahoganyed! You owe me BIG time. I want Glam's hair.
We have had chili, with mac and cheese. It was very tasty and now the rest of me is saying, "Lie down, take a rest. It won't hurt anything. Really."
Edited to fix things.

It's time to take a rest.
Chili with mac and cheese sounds wonderful on a cold evening. It's adult comfort food layered with kiddie comfort food!
I have a haircut scheduled for tomorrow. Yay!

C'mon, Santa!
Incidentally, Sufjan Stevens has a song titled "Get Behind Me, Santa!" - which causes me to smile.

JZ had a dream about you just having published your memoirs in two volumes titled: These Are The Things That Have Happened.
She reports that you had a very authorial haircut in your back jacket picture.
She also notes that she saw a makeover show where the woman looked like you and they gave her an angled bob and she looked like Laura Shapiro. So she thinks that would be a good go-to look for you.

I did. And then the kids got really noisy and Greg got really mad, and there was shouting of, "worked all day! ...then you kids!" so I got up. Now that the kids are in bed (and as soon as Kara settles down), I think I'm going to go back to horizontal.

Man, there are not words to express how green with envy I am that you guys got to meet Laura, while I still only know her pixels.
Sparky could pull of a great many hairstyles. I think angled bob is certainly one of them.

She was JZ's director in a Lee Blessing play called Independence, and I danced with her a considerable amount at Prom, including to "I Want Candy." (JZ adds: Which made Hec think that Laura must be his (smoking hot and absurdly youthful-looking) contemporary because she clearly loved the song so much and knew it so well, and he was totally baffled to hear that she's in fact several years my junior.)
