Nutty for next time .
I was picturing fingerwaves for pincurls, which gave me a very odd Nutty visual. I feel better now.
And also feel better to live in a time when I don't have to "do" my hair before I walk outside.
I'm so evil and... skanky. And I think I'm kinda gay.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Yeah, but you love getting your hair washed. Women used to go to the salon every week, often twice.

That, too. One of the many reasons Kay's my hero...she just washes her(admittedly amazing) hair and goes. And though her clothes look good on her, I'd never go crazy trying to duplicate the look.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

Why am I suddenly jonesing to read a mess of Conan Doyle? And no, nothing to do with hair. I just really want to reread all my Sherlock Holmes. Especially Baskervilles.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Actually the other problem with pincurls is that they tended, by the fact of their placement and the length of my hair, to make my head look like a cube. Not entirely flattering. It would take a real expert (and probably many noxious chemicals) to get the proper effect; I'm happy with faking my '40s style with a few well-placed barrettes and a sidelong glance.
In similar vein, what is the first novel I should start with, for Pelecanos? (I.e., the first one, or does he jump-start quality-wise later on?)

Jesse started me with Right As Rain and that was a good place to start. He'd written several by then and gotten his footing, but he introduced some new characters so it's an excellent gateway.

Jess's teacher was on the money about Heart of Darkness! My favourite ending ever, though, is Flaubert's Sentimental Education.
Also, the ending of the movie of A Clockwork Orange is so perfect that I was disappointed to find the book didn't end the same way!
