this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

IOmememeN, I got one hell of a haircut yesterday. I had been lazy and let my hair grow for a little bit, because it was behaving well and being nicely curly, etc. But then it got too unruly, and the super-dry winter air was making it not curl.

Before.

After.

I *love* it, but it's a bit of a shock to get used to. That was a LOT of hair gone. The Boy, despite being a lover of longer hair on women, very wisely said "It's pretty!"

Shit's all sorts of different now.

LOVE the hair Steph.

Also?

I'm coming and stealing that dress.

What is even happening?

And yesterday he said, "Well, I can't really judge [topic] since I'm in a long-term committed same-sex relationship."

Goober.

LOVE! Oh, if I knew how to do graphic stuff, there would be a cape and T-shirts available at Cafe Press.

Jilli, Mal has been working on animal noises - Arf! Meow! Ribbit! - and has been demanding to know what bunnies say. I've been going with "MWAH-HA-HA." Any suggestions?

Chris used to ask that about giraffes, as they were his favorite. I finally decided to make him laugh, because he wasn't accepting, "They don't talk," as an answer.

I'd say, "The cat says, 'meow'. The dog says, 'arf'. The cow says, 'moo'. The giraffe says..." Then, I'd open my mouth. Clamp it tight, in a really obvious way, wait a beat, look around, then say, "The frog says, 'ribbit', the sheep says, 'baaa'." Etc. He got it, and laughed, and stopped asking.

"MWAH-HA-HA" is good. "Minion!" would be another thing to try.

Oooh, that is a pretty haircut, Teppy.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

You look great, Teppy. Not just your hair, either. You're just looking very pretty in both those pictures.

Now tagless for your comfort.

OrthoNeuro is up there, too, and they're also very good in the back-fixing area.

That's where I'm going. Which makes me feel good about that choice. I know it's fixable--which is also good. It's the wearing-down-grinding-chronicness of this thing that is just unbelievably shitty.

Thanks, everyone for the support. I hate to whinge because I know there are folks that function with chronic pain a lot worse than mine. The kids keep me going and in spite of the pain, I still pretty much enjoy every day I have with them.

The temperature is pushing 60 degrees here. Even though it keeps threatening to sprinkle, I brought the kids outside. My brother cleaned up the yard for me on Saturday, so I just set Owen loose and Liv's in the exersaucer having a cracker while I sit on the patio furniture and watch them. I feel like I'm turning them into shut-ins, too. Since I can't even make it around the block pushing the stroller anymore.

Hmmm, I seem to have gone into Blue Whale mode where I'm walking around the kitchen with my mouth open and ingesting all the xmas treats like krill.
