Hi, Bitches!! I've been skimming 'n skipping for the past, oh, couple of months, but I do lurk and try to catch up on the doings of all of you.

{{{ND}}} They picked the wrong guy. I'm sorry.

Yay, to Kat & Lori! And, all kinds of ~ma to the babies for growing and cooking more.

I am plumb tuckered out these days. Spring break is next week and I can NOT wait. Although, I have a ton of grading to do as well as job search stuff and taxes. Whee. So, I won't really have a week "off." I will, however, have a week where I can sleep and not teach. I love it, but it's exhausting.

Student teaching is going very well. Had my 4th observation today. My Univ. Supervisor told me that just watching me made her tired because the class that she observed requires SO much attention/energy. But, she was impressed by the way I handled everything. Yay!

My mentor teacher rec'd me for a job here next year to the chair of the English dept. That made me happy. This is not my first choice of places to work, but it's not the bottom of the list, either. We'll see how the things on that front go.

I set my hair on fire once, in college. I may have been talking about the existence of god before the actualy singing, which happened when I was trying to light a bong. My friends did not attempt to put me out. They just kind of stared and said "Cool". Luckily, it went out on it's own after only a few seconds.

Ponytails are very practical, when one doesn't have a pixie cut.

Eta: ChiKat! Glad to hear student teaching is going so well!

It's pixied up. More Factory than Farrow.

About to spend my unexpected afternoon at home HIGHLIGHTING!!!

I can hear Hec's squeee all the way here in the Midwest.

I took a bus up to the U District, hit my fav barbershop, and had the girl there (who has almost identical texture issues to mine) fix it.

The Cutest Gothy Hairdresser In The World -girl, or someone else?

Oooh, and highlights! Good chemical ~ma to you.

I singed my bangs in art class, it was very embarrassing and I'm sure cemented everyone's belief that I was a strange flake.

I never set fire to my hair. Which is a minor miracle, considering the years of Aqua-netted batcave hair were also the years of smoking clove cigarettes.

I don't recall ever setting my hair afire. I've had short hair for more the 50% of my life, though, so it would have been difficult.

I've never done it before, mind. There was just a tealight in the wrong place.

The Cutest Gothy Hairdresser In The World -girl, or someone else?

Someone else. Blanking on her name. Tallish, slim, redhead. (Natural, from the look of it.)

But she had superthick hair with a slight wave, and therefore was the PERFECT person to work on my Crazy Oz Hair.

She was, to say it mildly, baffled at the previous cut. It made NO SENSE.

I am now covered in chemicals and a weird tulip cap and a long elastic-banded baggie.

Woo!

This is way too much fun.

Plei's so cute when she's having a good hair day.
