She shouldn't! I am all too fond of her in Run,Lola, Run. Erm, that's not relevent, is it?

OK, I don't doubt once it grows out a bit, I'll like it, but I think I told my hairdresser to go too short. Too butch for me right now. It might just be me getting used to styling it, though. Hrm. Anyway, I'll live with it. I think this is the first time in 9 years I'm not 100% satisfied. So that's not bad.

About an hour ago I was sitting on the couch working on my non-work to-do list for the week, an absolute necessity in the great juggling act that is my life. Annabel was playing on the floor, and she asked me to join her. I said, "I can't. I'm busy right now." She popped up onto the couch, kissed my cheek, and said, "You're not busy anymore. I kissed you and made it all better."

I got down on the floor and played. How could I not?

ION, I'm making lentil soup, and the house smells like bacon and onions.

Kat, she stays dead for all of the Bourne Supremacy. I don't know if she's been resurrected for the next movie.

For reasons that I cannot fathom, I decided that today would be an excellent day to roast a loin of pork. My house is stiflingly hot now. But it does smell awesome.

If anyone has any other ideas for exercise without ankle, I'd love to hear them.

Rowing is a nice aerobic exercise if you have a waterway option.

You're a sick man, Smay.

Alcohol lowers inhibitions! It's the perfect time.

but I think I told my hairdresser to go too short.

She popped up onto the couch, kissed my cheek, and said, "You're not busy anymore. I kissed you and made it all better."

They love you back! That's the whole thing of parenting.

Well that sucks! I mean, she's one of two reasons to watch the movie and to off her her in the first 15 mintues sucks.

In poop news, Grace pooped on her own for the first time in like 6 weeks. Let me not talk about how much I hate her hospital. But today, when I visited her, I just sort of cried the whole time because it looks like she will be having a tracheostomy and a ventilator at home for all of her early childhood and I am going to have a nightmare of a time trying to figure out childcare/home nursing.

On the upside? I'm teaching a new class at UCLA on analytical writing in middle school classrooms.

OH! and I have a job interview for an out of the classroom gig.

Lots of interview~ma, Kat. Sorry about the possibility of Grace's tracheostomy but yay on the poop. I hope the childcare/nursing thing isn't too much of a nightmare.

Kat, I hope all ends up well. I'm frustrated on your behalf at Childrens. Not like that means shit, but I am.

Uh, it's not as flattering as in the past ? Too much bang. Too..something. Definitely too butch. In a couple weeks, it'll be softer (my pref) and I'll like it. That's one thing about my hairdresser, her cuts? Grow out beautifully. None of this desperately needing a cut because it's grown out. I honestly could go from this to below the shoulders and it'd still look good. She's awesome.
