I'm back! In case you missed me. i feel more ravaged after one night away in a hotel with the 3rd/4th grade than two nights in a ramshackle cabin with the 5th/6th last week. Gawd alone knows how I'll feel after three in a hostel in Chicago with the 7th/8th next week

I was frightened this morning when it was so bright outside and I could see a big fiery ball in the sky! Anyone in the midwest know what that is?

I decided I did not want a super-cheap haircut this month.
It's not super-cheap for a start, just cheaper than anywhere else, and last time I went there I had an appalling haircut that I had to live with for another 2 months.

So of course I trimmed my own fringe (bangs).
Hmmmm... How did it go?
Let's say less well than when I have done it previously.

I will wash it and check it out of course.
What? I shouldn't have cut it dry? Like I should read hair-dye instructions before I use them...? C'mon.
Actually.... thinking back, I did a wet cut last time. D'oh!

What I am tempted to do now is dye my hair blonde.
I bought a discounted dye (it had no cap enclosed - I have hair-dye caps at home) to use this summer. Before some other cheap witch snapped it up.
I'm thinking, if I use it now it might distract people from my fringe.
Or at the very least make me feel better.
But then - what if it turns out red hair + bleach = too orangey for crows?

Of course I am asking you.
Of course I am really just sounding out my own opinion.
It's like I have someone inside me saying "I dare you!" and "I double dare you!"

No, it really is under consideration.
I wanted to dye my hair pink for the summer anyway (hence the bleach purchase).
But if I dye it blonde now I can use spray-in pink as and when I want. And it will be cheaper. Just more hassle, hence it not being my first summer choice.

I don't know what I'm typing any more, the flecks of hair on my face and chest are itching me too much.

Well, as you're asking, it's dried okay.
kinda zig-zaggy, but that was what I wanted.
If I'd tried to cut a blunt fringe (bangs) I know it would have been uneven.

This way it's choppy.

May still dye it.

We're having five 9 year old boys for a sleep over tonight. Wish me luck.



No, I'm not Micheal Jackson. They are coming over for my son's birthday party.

amp them up as much as possible as soon as possible. caffeinated soda and lots of it. candy. frenetic video games. play outside, preferably touch football or some kind of gang wrestling game, red rover red rover. keep applying the sugar and candy and caffeine.

then they'll all collapse and you can sleep.

Random crazy story:

My grandma found some baby animals out in her yard the other day, newborn or almost so it was hard to tell for sure what they were. Finally determined they were baby bunnies. She kept an eye on them but didn't want to move/disturb them until the mom came back. She had to leave to go to the store after a few hours though. When she got back to check on them, there was a snake! It had eaten two already! So she grabbed a stick, caught that damn snake, killed it and cut the bunnies out of it...alive! Fuck yeah, go grandma! She put them back with the rest.
Momma bunny never came back though and later all the baby bunnies got eaten by another snake too late for my grandma to stop it and save them. She did kill the snake anyway out of revenge for the bunnies.

So, crazy story, got happy and then ended terribly terribly sad with death all around.

Got a letter from my very first official girlfriend today, inviting me to a JR High School reunion. Good grief.

My parents are kinda pissed she killed the snakes. Bunnies are the pest (eating their garden) and snakes are good since they eat the bunnies, rats, mice and shrews that cause problems. I like snakes too, but I would be seriously sad about the death of the bunnies also. /shrug

Obviously I haven't had enough deadlines this week...just worked out that the number of serious deadlines has a direct correlation to the amount of lurking I do and responses I write on the Cellar.

i.e. lots of looming deadlines=no posting
vs
no looming deadlines = no or very little posting.

I have a translation due tomorrow and an assignment due in 1.5 weeks so this must be the appropriate time to catch up with thread reading and posting responses.
