That's one thing I miss about longer hair, pigtails. I remember seeing the Buffy ep when she wore them doubled up, with the ends sticking out, and I was all "OMG GENIUS SUMMER HAIR" and it immediately became my go-to exercise hair.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

My hair is too short now for pigtails, but I wore them and still would when inspired. When I ran and wore a hat, I loved pigtails, low, because I could still wear a hat (like Jilli said, but a baseball cap).
Grace wears her hair in pigtails almost every day, but I guess that doesn't count.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I am amused at how many of us wear our hair in pigtails. Although I am beyond Scrappy's cut off date. I hope I don't have to stop wearing them. So useful for exercise especially.
Of course, given that I usually wear them for exercise or running errands, pigtails are fairly dissociated from "sexy" in my personal lexicon.

I used to do pigtails all the time when I had long hair.
OK, so all my weekend shopping is done, and I have dyed my hair. Still no thunder. Feh. I wanted to swim, all this productivity notwithstanding.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I think I'm with Scrappy, definition-wise.
Honey, welcome to the grown-up world. ANYTHING can be seen as sexy.
Especially on Brigitte Bardot's head!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Please, work people, when I send you an email, count the question marks and answer at least that many questions. I did think about it, and that's how many things, at least, that I think I don't know. It's just silly when you answer just one and I have to reply back asking again.
Also, I can't believe what we don't have documented. Yikes. It's just living in one guy's head.

I'm sitting in my classroom, waiting for class to start. The teacher is waiting for more people to show up--we're four students shy (out of 17). I'm guessing it's traffic holding people up; the teacher just said that the Ike was particularly bad coming out of the city.

My workplace. And one of the heads is retiring. Ack!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Pagination: I am paginating a 180 page journal, right now, and it ain't FG. However, I haven't fucked it up (yet).
I have started to put bullet points in my emails, because it's the only way I can get people to address all my questions/concerns. There's one woman who still won't respond to anything but the first point. I have to send her separate emails for each thing I want to know.
I wore my hair in pigtails a lot in middle school. It was cute. Is there a special word for braided pigtails like NCIS Abby wears?
