I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

mac is a giant pouter since I announced that playtime for the day is over. GIANT POUTER! stomping around whenever I ask him to do something, but he is not turning on the tv or games, so win.

I am listing things on ebay and starting half price books bag and a good will bag.

I think if I get 5 things listed on ebay it will be a triumph. I have had a box of things in my living room for over a year.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

That actually sounds really fabulous to me right now. But I don't have any idea what I'm actually going to have for dinner.

So I'm girlified at the moment. I used the pink polish from my OPI box, and it was too pink! So I added Sinful's Glass Pink, which...did not make it less pink, but made it sparkly too. And then I did this (link goes to youtube video) victory roll ponytail from my favorite makeup video blogger. It came out okay, but I think I can do better with practice.

I'm trying to figure out hair, because I feel like I like long hair, but then when I have it, I never know how to put it up in anyway that's not totally childish.

I'm also thinking about cutting it. How much effort in styling do you think would have to go into Black Widow's hair here? (Total of 8 pics, you can scroll through.) Mine is not naturally curly, obviously, and even if I did color it wouldn't end up that red. I suspect with those caveats, this would just be my same bob that I figure is going to end up being my old lady hair. You know, the haircut that people just keep getting once they get to a certain age that makes it clear to everyone in the room what era they were adolescent in? Mine is going to be the 90's bob, and I don't know if I can fight it.

By that logic, my old lady hair is going to be backcombed and hairsprayed within an inch of someone else's life. Yay!

Hmmm, maybe I should indulge in Big Hair next week. That's always fun.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I"m having minor hair angst lately. My hair has become so much coarser since I hit my 40s and it just doesn't fall the way it used to. sigh.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Shit, my hair's already been basically the same for at least ten years, and I'm not even 40!

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

I will probably try cayenne in the remaining batch. See if I can beat the vegetable. Squash. Whatever.

As for Scarlett's hair--I imagine it has more body in the back when she's at the start of saving the world.

I'm glad I don't have enough patients to have options of elderly hair.

I did dye it with the blue tone packet once, to see if I could get it even darker than platinum.

No--I had blue hair. Why so literal, cheveux?

I want o make sure I cut it more often. I'd forgotten how much I like the feel of my scalp when it's just stubble.

I think I'm going to opt for the hair I had from my mid-thirties to today. It's a lot more flattering than 80s hair. Of course, I did live through the 70s, so the hair of my adolescence isn't the worst by a long shot.
