Katie Holmes in Posh's haircut,
That looks spectacular on her. (Tom Cruise just looks like a pasty troll.)
That was sort of what my new haircut (yes, I *did* get my hair -- lots of it -- cut Monday, but no pictures until I decide if I'm getting it changed up a little more) was supposed to look like, but it's not long enough to create that sleek, swingy effect.
She gave me the exact cut I asked for (except for cutting it too short), and, as far as inverted bobs go, it looks good. I just don't know that I like it on *me.* It creates a weird combination of mom!hair and perky, neither of which are the look I'm trying to create.
But if I have my stylist re-snip it, I'm totally paying for a haircut -- you know how, if the stylist fucks up, it's normal for the stylist to fix it for no charge? -- well, this cut is precisely what I asked for; she did NOT fuck it up. It's my own whims that want something different, and therefore I should pay for it.
I think I need to accept that I am not a bob kind of girl.
No, NOT ridiculous. You sound like me, in fact.
But you sort of have to try, don't you? And he has to feel the same way about possible-meeting-people as well, I'm sure.
And I wish I had something useful to say but I have three minutes to get to a meeting whoosh!
Ok. People. Wish me luck. Going down to the RMV to meet with the devil himself.
Yikes. Just got an email from the professor I'm working with. He wants to discuss why I'm missed recitations and be assured that it won't happen again. This is not someone that I really want to get into all the medical issues with, but I'm thinking there might not be a way to avoid that.
Fay! I x-posted with you -- let me just say, the "accurate grammar" part alone is worth at least one date. That's all you have to do.
Don't talk yourself out of anything because you're envisioning the whole vast landscape of how it could go -- good or bad -- and the will-he-fancy-you part and the will-you-fancy-him part, etc., etc.
Just one date. That's how you figure out the whole do-you-fancy-each-other thing. Don't look any further than one date. Otherwise you'll spook yourself.
Luck, vw!
..so this is the part where my 'flee!' instinct kicks in.
No fleeing! He sounds interesting and you are interesting. Go for it!
Ugh, Hil. I hope it ends up being a productive discussion with understanding on his part.
Fay, there's always the Thai equivalent of "let's meet for coffee." Which at least makes judgmental comments an even bigger faux pas than normal.
I'm no expert on reading between the lines of personals, but it sounds like this guy is looking for a particular personality rather than model good looks. We've never met, but from the photos I've seen, I'd say you are good looking, though more of an English Rose than a Model. And his personality request seems to fit the way you come across here, at least enough to try for friendship.
And his personal as you quote it doesn't strike me as an Internet Weirdo. At least, not in any dangerous sense.
I am so twelve.
