My hair is really really long--it's a couple inches from my waist. I don't think it's ever been this long and it blows my mind because it doesn't feel like I have that much hair. I have been super lazy about getting it cut and after attempts at messy buns I gave up because my hair keeps defying bobby pins.
I want to get it cut short again but I don't have a stylist. Although someone gave me a recommendation (and I really liked their short hair) so I may call and see about an appointment and just have them trim my hair and see how I like them before committing to getting it all cut off. Haven't found a lot of hair styles that I am thinking about although I'm not sure. I think I'd kind of like something with a sharp angle bob like this [link] but much shorter on the other side. Not sure if it would look good on me.
For those who might be interested, I came across Nandor the Relentless Is the Man You Wish You Were.
askye, have you tried spin pins? They're the only things that will keep my super-fine-yet-voluminous hair in a bun. My hair will eat bobby pins.
I haven't tried spin pins--any brand that you recommend or will any do?
The John Lewis 2023 holiday ad is out. It's ... different.
I forget the Brits have a retailer named that and think about "good trouble" every time.
I remember at one ComicCon, our John Lewis turned up cosplaying a younger himself, with the coat and backpack, and led a march through the Con.
That is amazing and wonderful!
Eta John Lewis at ComicCon although the ad is quite something
I've been struggling a bit. I also stopped taking my anti depressant again so maybe that has to do with it. I also screwed up when I was calculating benefit differences between new and old job and so yeah I'm making less hourly and my take home is less. Not a huge about considering but enough that it's disheartening . I didn't calculate taxes and 401k enough.
I've been feeling like I really messed up hiring lawyers for the workers comp and I should have just given up dropped everything when they weren't paying me and gone back to work full time even though I was struggling. Because I would have had 6 yrs at the job and paid holidays and a huge amount of PTO and all of that.
Except I kind of like what I'm doing stocking groceries. It's a nice balance between routine and something different and not too much customer contact. I've been looking at jobs again and I did apply. I'll see what happens.
