Several various things

[switch842]

First, I heard "Smack My Bitch Up" on the radio today. Hehe! Those THINGERS on my flist will understand my giddiness at that. :-D

And now I'm not sure if I'll be going to NY in November, any more. Hubby is really not liking it out there. Apparently the leader of the project is a real ass, and the apartment he's sharing (a one bedroom with another guy), is crappier than the crappy apartment he had in college. But he's supposed to be moving somewhere else next week. Some things have started to get a little better. The boss guy has lessened his assholiness a bit, so that's good. Hubby is flying back home next weekend to head down to Tampa for a family wedding. If things are still really sucky at that point, he just won't be going back. If they're OK, he will. It's a lot of extra money that we could use. Plus, I have already booked my flight and the theater tickets in November. So, that would be some money wasted that we could have kept around. *shrugs* So, we'll see. (*WHINES* I wanna see Gale!!! He looks so hot with the new hair!)


And I went over to my friend's mom's house today so she could help me with my costume. I'm going to be one of the cancan girls from Moulin Rouge. :-) Here's the inspiration:



And here's me:



I think it looks pretty good! I'm trying to decide between going out and getting the bowler hat, or using some of the extra fabric to make a handkerchief/headrag thing. Suggestions??


Not less than an hour after I took that costume pic, I de-blonded myself. :-) My highlights were grown out at a really bad length and I have that wedding next weekend. Which, since we're the family, I'll probably be in quite a few pics, so I decided I should look my best, right? Plus I needed to go dark for the Nutcracker as I have this hairpiece that I use and it's pretty much my natural color. Which is not blonde. :-)



So, whaddya think? I think I like myself not-blonde better. But my mom always complains when I do this cos she loves me blonde. Eh. Whatever. I'm not one of those people that freak about my hair.

I think that's all. For now, anyway.....

Thanks for stopping by!

Eh, I love you as a not blonde better. Funny, my mother always cusses at me when I dye my hair. She says if God wanted my hair to be a different color he would have made it so. I counter with, then God shouldn't have invented hair dye then darn it! *snicker*

Nice reply! :-)

Love the darker hair! It really shows up your eyes, and I like the bowler idea. I just like hats.

What's your part in Nutcracker?

I am one of the party adults in the opening scene. Nothing much, but lots of fun!

I don't see a pic with the darker hair. Am I missing something? *g*

I think your outfit looks really cute, though. :-)

There should be 3 pictures. The third is a close-up of me with the darker hair. :-)

Ah, okay. The last picture wasn't there the last time I looked at this. I think your hair looks equally nice as either color.

Well, thank you! :-)
