Random: hair, Harry Potter, poi

Jun 14, 2007 22:27

First off: no, I do not have pics of the new hair yet. I'm starting to dislike the longish bit in the front. It gets in my face and distracts me. And it tends to unnecessary poofiness, which I find unattractive. It will be cut short soon, and then come the pics.

I'm really annoyed because I can't find our copy of Harry Potter 6. I've looked all over the place and it just isn't anywhere. I'm filling the gap by rereading Harry Potter 5 for the time being, but still: aaargh.

I have picked up a new hobby: spinning poi. (Home Of Poi; Wikipedia article on poi.) Partly as a wrist exercise, mostly just for the coolness factor. Also because I miss being a beginner at something like this. My favorite part of Karate was purple belt, when the learning curve was steep and we were getting our teeth into lots of real content. I miss that, and I'm hoping poi will fill that need.

Making my own poi was...interesting. I started with tennis balls, duct tape, and string. Gradually I replaced parts and made it more fancy, so now I've got some pretty cool homemade poi, if I do say so myself. And yes, I will take pics of them.

random, poi, grarg
