Oh my god I just shed actual tears over this haircut. People everywhere are dealing with actual legitimate issues and here I am weeping over hair. I feel like I have just regressed in age ten years or something.

ita! Tell your anti-doodling boss that people who doodle learn faster.

Offer: Small cat carrier

Wanted: Large cat carrier

Well, I think I finished the edit on my brother's article. I hate doing edits on subjects I don't know at ALL (like medicine), because I'm afraid I'll miss something important, or cut something important, or whatever.

I feel really bad for him, because his life is entirely crazy right now, and this chapter is grossly overdue, and I'm pretty sure you don't get paid for that stuff, it's just status.

And now I'm not going to watch Sarah Connor Chronicles tonight, which means I get to spend hours working through the VividCon dvd set. Woot!

I no longer have an anti-doodling boss. I have a boss who raises his eyebrows at what I draw, but he hasn't told me to stop.

Yikes. The voicemail I was avoiding was not the voicemail I thought I was avoiding. I checked my missed calls log, and all the numbers were personal numbers. So no rush. Except it was a automatically sent voicemail from the president, mentioning amongst other things, our pledge to reply to voicemail and emails within 24 hours. And I left it lying there for days.

And the whole changing my outgoing voice message thing--more and more people are doing it. I don't think I can be cutesy and shirk it anymore. I need to compose something brief.

Zuisa, I felt the same on my last haircut! You not only feel sad, but then you feel shallow for feeling sad. It's a vicious cycle, and I suggest doing something which breaks the cycle, like going to a fabulous movie.

Do something with makeup or clothes, zuisa! Honestly, probably most people you don't know won't notice a thing, and to people you do know there might be a disconnect and then you'll just start looking like you again.

I really need to get my hair cut. It's not a Nivea-level issue, but it has gone too long. Weeks overdue.

I have to live with this cut until it grows out a bit, probably until mid-October. Then, I have to find a hairdresser who is experienced with curly hair and can give me some advice on a decent cut. I've never had it this naturally curly in my life, so I have no idea on what style I should go with.

My hair went from slightly wavey to curly in my mid-30's (dang, that sounds forever ago) and I went through this. Heck, I'm still going through it. I've played with a bunch of different styles. Right now I'm working on growing it out, so it doesn't really have a style right now.

zuisa - it is perfectly understandable to be upset over a cut you don't like. Is it something you could go back and have tweaked? If not, just hang in there. During my style experiments I kept reminding myself, it is going to grow whether I like it or not.

I think my hair always freaks out after a cut, and I can't tell what it really looks like for a couple of days.
