I loved Catherine Keener's hair in Your Friends and Neighbors

I got a Referral Denied on that link. DARN YOU UNIVERSE!

The only thing about getting the shag now would be that i'd be unable to put my hair up in a ponytail as we head into the 90+ degree, air made of glue season here.

Thanks, GC! She's so pretty!

Catherine Keener

That's a great look. I prefer it to her longer style in 40 Year Old Virgin.

Out of complete and idle curiosity, Hec, what sort of haircut would you suggest for me? Not that I'm thinking of cutting my hair (Pete's head would explode, for one), but I'm curious what hairstyles you think would work for me.

Hmmm. Well, I'd probably keep the bangs because I do love to highlight your eyebrows. But your face has gotten quite a bit thinner since you've lost weight.

Let me look for a sec...

One has to wonder what is bubbling in that SPN-obsessed brain of Plei's.

Well, I was wondering if I needed to subject your brain to Celluloid Closet treatment.

Is that an SPN episode or a TV show I've nver heard of? Seriously, I don't know what Celluloid Closet is.

ION, I am happily baiting my employers. Someone on the Magic forums asked if I wanted to return to working on the storyline stuff and I gave them a long explanation of why a corporation has no interest in long-term, low-return projects that are only good for the flavor of the product. My final line was "But hey, if they want to offer me that job, I'll certainly consider it. I bet I can give better value than any one of a dozen of the overpaid consultants the suits have thrown money at over the years."

Heh. Yeah, I'm not in the mood to be diplomatic with Hasbro.

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is why *I'M* the one with the corporate job in our household.

This is why I don't balance my checkbook. Much more relaxing.

I'm an atheist, but I'm seriously considering looking into Zenkittism.

Except that, and I don't know if I told y'all about this, but Mr. Jane deposited our tax refund, oh I guess a couple of weeks ago. Sometime last week I got an email saying we had insufficient funds. I go to look (after nicely asking Mr. Jane if he might have spent $2,000 without telling me) and found they had reversed the deposit. So I call the bank, they couldn't verify Mr. Jane's sig so they mailed it back-regular mail. (Which on it's face is stupid. If you have to be so careful with that money that you don't deposit it into an account with the name of the person on the check because you can't verify the husband-with the same last name- signature, you don't then just drop it in a mailbox). So I called and the teller said when I got the check, take it to a banking center and they would reverse any charges we incurred.

Cut to Wednesday after I've deposited the check, but none of the overdraft charges have been reversed. Not one of the 14 we got since the mess started. CS lady says "Not our fault. Not going to do it." after arguing for 30 minutes, she agrees to 2. NOT. ACCEPTABLE. These are $35 charges on amounts of like $6 and $8. $400+ dollars worth.

Mr. Jane is at my heels begging me to let him talk to them. I say no, as I'm sure my calm but firm manner will work better than his yelling and threats. CS lady gives me her supervisor, and after being on hold for 5 minutes, supervisor gets on the phone and just says, "Yes ma'am we'll reverse those for you."

Now, I have $2,000+ safely in the bank, and my husband thinks I'm a goddess.

Got an email from a friend today after I sent her pics of the Jessica Rabbit dress that said, "Knitting, crocheting, sewing, is there anything you can't do?" And I'm thinking of replying, "No. No there isn't."

Hrm. Okay. Still with the crazy, huh, Plei. IJS.

That's okay, Jilli. It's a bridge that'll eventually need burning anyway. Yes, and I don't let you have flammable things. I clearly suck.
