Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

If you scroll down to post 14 here, the second and third pictures (the woman with pearls, and the guy on what I think is a polo field) have similar hair texture to my mom. [link]

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

My hair is like that, only with a bald spot. When I was growing up it was called a "Jewfro".

My mom for some reason insisted on "Isro" rather than "Jewfro." No idea why.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Watching What Not To Wear is giving me shoe envy.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, I wonder if the girl I went to high school with dyed her hair then, because it's brown now: [link]

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I was thinking of nappier hair than that in my post. I don't know what my hair would do now, but in my youth it would never do anything as identifiable as ringlets like that guy has, or loose like that woman. It's gone all different now in different spots on my head and I'd never dream of growing it out, much less wearing it long and loose like that.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Poor bride and groom and company. The limo they hired for three hours ditched them after dropping them off. He took off with their wedding certificate and a necklace and other things still in the limo. Had to call them a cab. What a way to end a wedding. 600 bucks for half an hours service? Almost ended up giving them a ride to their hotel, which was in my township.

One of my college roomates had that same hair, Jesse. But she didn't dye it, it was blond (well, except for the unfortunate cherry koolaid incident. She tried dyeing it for a costume, and well, it lasted.)

I need to get a swimsuit. Standard performance suits drive me nuts because they don't have enough fabric on top if they fit properly on the bottom now. This will probably make me nuts. I think I'm really going to join the Y down the road, because as much as I'm liking my walking, I'm not going to be comfortable doing it in the dark this winter. Hence, pick up swimming. And maybe I'll even use the gym. Hrm. Pod person.

Coates has some interesting discussion about that article in the comments, FYI.

I know comments are comments, but I can't believe there's a guy up in there calling straightening "deliberate uglification." How rude.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Am posting from a hotel in NJ. We're spending the weekend in the NY-area. The original reason for the trip is to see my brother and his family, who live in the city. We are seeing some friends while we're here.
