Wincon is right around the corner (FYI This --->
http://omgwincon.com/) and I am going this year. I didn't go last year and I've been saving up in order to go. It is my one real break during the year. I feel bad with my dad being sick but he's the first one to push me to go.
Yesterday I asked my mom to help me dye my hair (TIS PURPLE YAY) and my dad was all... "Why can't you color it a normal color?"
Me: Dad I'm not normal.
Dad: You know like you did in high school... just normal.
Me: (a little louder) Dad I'm not normal.
Dad: (very fierce) Yes you are!
Me: Dad I've never been normal. I appreciate that you think I am or have been but I haven't and I like purple hair.
Dad: grumbles
Later I was talking to my mother who is partially deaf and I'm never sure how much of the conversation she catches (especially since she wasn't looking right at us) I told her that if it had been easily available I would have had flame colored hair or blue or green or purple when I was in high school and she agreed with me. LOL
Right now I've got a sore throat (not strep) and I think I'm losing my voice again. So if you're coming to Wincon I'll be the girl with the short purple hair croaking at everyone.
I may just post a pic of myself with the new hair on twitter... if anyone is interested.
I also found out today that I weigh about 30 lbs more than I thought I did. Fat girls are fun. :)
