An All-Star tradition you might be unfamiliar with:

Every year, after the AL manager addresses his team, Ichiro bursts from his locker, a bundle of kinetic energy, and proceeds, in English, to disparage the National League with an H-bomb of F-bombs, stunning first-timers who had no idea Ichiro speaks the queen’s language fluently and making returnees happy that they had played well enough to see the pep talk again.

The tradition began in 2001, Ichiro’s first All-Star appearance, and the AL hasn’t lost a game since. Coincidence?

I didn't think I could love Ichiro more.

I'm trying to imagine what he actually says: "We're going to fuck those fucking fuckheads right in their fuckholes!" Or what?

Thank you to everyone for all the good wishes.

Extra {{{Drew}}}}, since you're around...

I brought my computer to babysit today...to do homework (ETA: during nap time). BUT, I found an open internet connection, so what am I doing instead???

Hair query: I am thinking about getting this haircut tomorrow. Thoughts?

This is a similar one though the picture looks sorta creepy and dated. [link]

Also, is there any way in hell I can pull this off?

I can't see the pictures! Want to see pictures! But, then again, I get to see Nora in person on Monday, so I'll just deal...

Do the links not work? Blergh.

I like the first one, Nora, and think it would look really lovely on you.

Oh, I'm sure they work. Sorry. I just have a really crappy connection, and no pictures will load.

Heh. Sorry, I was actually just frustrated with something work related at the same moment.

ETA: Thanks, Scrappy!

I love the last one, BTW, but that's a hard haircut to wear. I have tried it several times, and it is very hard to keep it from crossing the line from "sassy and now" to "just left the convent this morning".

Also, on me, it tends to make my face All About The Giant Nose, which is not a good look.
