Anyway, I got a haircut today. Actually, I’ve cut my own hair every day for about a month now, so I was in desperate need of professional help (yes, in more ways than one). I tried to do the dorktastic “take a picture of myself” thing, but it didn’t turn out well, so just picture Carter, Season 8; more “Threads” than “It’s Good To Be King”, but I’m pleased.
I’m seriously jonesing for more Fringe. Tuesdays (Eureka) can’t come soon enough, and I’ve already ‘thonned Heroes, Pushing Daisies, Spaced, and Doctor Who (including Christmas specials). If the trade-off for going back to work means Fall TV Schedules, I’m ready. Project Runway and Shear Genius each proved that there’s no logic in the judges’ thought, so while I will watch them more as “shows” than “competitions”.

Monster.com’s latest television ad is genius. As a whole town mobilizes for war in the dark, complete with dramatic music and promise of epic battle, we see that it is MONDAY they are fighting. Heh. Good, no, GREAT stuff. I love that one.
What a week we had last week! Monday was pretty ordinary; benchmark testing at school. Tuesday was great, as I spent nearly all of the day with my seniors. Wednesday I got to spend a small sliver of time with Ben and Jonas before a great class at MU. I feared that class, but I now think it’s going to be fine. *whew* Thursday was a snowday. Whoo! Friday was a counselor collaboration meeting, and though only two schools could make it in, we covered a huge amount of ground and I feel great about it.
I have a salon appointment today and I’m thinking of cutting my hair short again. I’m tired of the pseudo-Carter cut and now that Amanda Tapping has grown her hair out, I know I definitely don’t want to follow suit. I think I’ll try to go Yoanna style, Cycle 2 of ANTM. (Stop rolling your eyes, Ben!)
My cousin Ashley and her husband Caleb are due here any minute to learn all about the fascinating world of web design and I’ve made graphs, visual aids, and step-by-step instructions. We’ll see how good they are when Ashley either A) makes her own site or B) goes bald from pulling out her hair.
So yesterday (07/07/07) was supposed to be the luckiest day of the century. Uh, I didn’t get lucky. Nope. Not at all. It was just a regular day. If anything, it was a boring day. I ended up organizing the pics on my Zune and adding a few more Doctor Who eps. Fascinating.
I did discover a torrent (not well seeded) of the first 26 years of The Doctor, and within the next week, I should have the first two seasons. See? Unlucky seeding. Also? The complete torrent is 201GB. I don’t know a lot about techno stuff, but I’m pretty damned sure I can’t get 201GB on my 120GB hard drive, especially when I have something like 13GB available. See? Unlucky hard drive space. I’m going to have to go a couple of seasons at a time, burn them, seed them, and move on.
I got all my hair cut off Friday. I don’t think it to be an unlucky situation, as it’s very cute, but if I had waited until yesterday…
I have a sneaking suspicion that this morning’s coffee is the only thing keeping me awake right now and I’m seriously considering taking a nap–yes, at 9:00am.
This is just one of my items pre-ordered today. Let’s see, I got Dark Galadriel, Lothlorien pack, Eye of Sauron, and, oh yes, Boromir (with sound!).
The haircut is awesome. I love it. It’s chin-length with tons of choppy layers. Now that I have only one chin, I can wear it like this. *preens*
