crap. My makeover efforts have been thwarted by my hair color being completely wrong. Too light. I need a medium ash brown. This is way too light. I also cut five inches off my hair today.
I don't feel like me. Too much change, too fast.
I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly is a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Falling back... does that mean an extra hour of sleep? Mathiness is beyond me right now.
I just made Grace a dress out of a onesie and leftover polka dot sheeting.
It actually worked out and is super super cute. I wish I could find my die-cutter so I could die cut a shape and sew it onto the top of the onesie. But that means going into the garage and it's dark.

Yep. More sleep in fall, less sleep in spring.

Well, as that article pointed out, more sleep only if my child observes the switch from DST to standard time. Which Noah hasn't mastered the art of time telling so I think I'm screwed.

Hec, not enough registered black TBs to fill a field.
(plenty that are probably genetically black, but registered as dark bay/brown)

Right.
In fact, one blogger posted that they tried to have an all gray race in harness racing but they couldn't field enough grays for the race to go.
True black in horses is much more unusual than you'd think. (Of course, if the Jockey Club would join the 21st century they could dna test for color. . . as well as other things.)

It's that rare with thoroughbreds? Is it more common with Arabians or some other breed?

Loki hasn't mastered time either, so I predict an early wakeup (fall back to sleep.) I already changed my clocks because I needed the extra hour tonight.
Lovely day with lisah, Perkins and Sparky.
Also, breakthrough? Got Loki and Devi to sniff noses and Loki didn't go all scaredycat (I was holding him, but usually that doesn't help) and Dev just wandered off after sniffing him thoroughly. Hope?
Aimee, my condolences.

Oh, random math department story: Yesterday, the grad student seminar was about the mathematics of the election -- electoral college, various power indices, and so on. One of the grad students, L, had a lot of work to do and didn't want to go. She mentioned this to another grad student, T, in the morning, and he jokingly replied, "You're from China -- you shouldn't have to learn about our election. Just skip it." A few minutes before the seminar started, L passed by a professor who asked her if she was coming to the seminar. (The seminars aren't mandatory, but you're generally expected to go to as many as you can.) L replied, "I'm not going to learn about the election. I'm a Communist."
