this is what the back of my head looked like on friday morning:
this is what the front of my head looked like on friday morning:
my favorite pictures of myself are ones where i am looking at the ground, or my feet, or my food.
and this!
even though this picture was taken today, this is a mostly accurate representation …
… of what my head looked like on friday night.
did you know my hair was almost curly? i didn’t know it was almost curly.
apparently it’s almost curly.
aww, the tiny little ponytail!
(i’m afraid i’m going to be ostracized from library school now that i can’t make it into a proper bun.)
when it’s wet, it’s even curlier! just wait until i take it to the beach!
(also, jesus god i look like my sister sometimes. also, pink.)
here, i am very pleased with myself.
i like this picture even though i’m looking at the camera.
after the wake – you know, for the hairs – i came home and read this story my sister wrote about me and cried and cried.
(song: “i love the unknown,” clem snide)
The third picture reminds me of Robin.
ACK! YOU HACKED YOUR LUXURIOUS TRESSES! OMGFWTF?!?!
Oh well, at least you had enough to donate. (you DID donate it, right?)
not yet, but i have the address and someday will get around to mailing it. it has to be a foot though and i don’t know if i have a foot.
Oooh, it looks close to a foot anyways.
Also, what did you think of Gods and Monsters? I thought Brendan Fraser did a surprisingly excellent job. Give me your take on Cryptonomicon too, if you would be so kind. Amazon says I’d like it but i read the synopsis and it doesn’t sound quite like my cup of tea.
i love gods and monsters. i saw it a long time ago was hoping it was as good as i remembered when i recently rewatched it, and it was. i have always had a soft spot for brendan fraser and was happy to find a movie that justifies it. everyone in that movie — all three actors :P — is excellent.
as for cryptonomicon, it is too big to carry around so it’s slow going since i can only read at home and i’m only there when i’m going to sleep. i usually make it through three or four pages before i fall asleep.
have you read others of his?
i do like the story though he gets a little too wrapped up in detail.
I didn’t know you were attempting Cryptonomicon, too! I was reading it but kept falling asleep. So I switched to Wicked. But I’m back. I thought it would be different than it is.. and War Conspiracy Theory isn’t exactly MY cup of tea.. but I feel that I should read it. I also felt a little lost when I read Snow Crash, even though all these other people loved it. Maybe I’m deficient in something needed to really enjoy his books.
And – the hair! You finally did it! I love it. I am glad your hair is almost-curly — that is the best. :)
And your seastar’s story is SO sweet. As always, makes me envious that I don’t have a sister, just a giant brother.
Ooh, I love it!
I think when you take it to the beach, you should take me, too.
Oh dear. Just what I was afraid of… triple-posting!!! The stupid comments thing just kept saying “page not found”… so I kept trying… and now it’s on there 3 times. Oh, the shame! Delete the extras if you can, lauren dear. :)
erased.

i like her story a lot. and your hair.
I think you’re hair is adorable short. And I am so jealous that it is almost curly. Mine is so straight that even when I curl it with a curling iron it is less curly than yours in five minutes. And, I bet you can now put it into two cute little buns instead of one big one. That should keep them from kicking you out.
yeah, you really look a lot like me in that one. It’s kind of scary.
Did that story go away???
