Welcome back. I have to say I've missed reading your posts :)
I always quite liked the idea of long flowing tresses but it just doesn't work with me... I'm far to inept to be able to make it look good. I've never forgotten my mother's look of horror when I cut all my hair off at age 17 though. Apparently I went from 'looking like a young woman' to 'looking like a 14 yr old boy' *chuckles*
I know that scenario so well.. I never was that girl who could spend whole decades in front of a mirror preening her mane until it was juuuust so. I did the same thing to my mother, sliced off all my hair at pretty much the same age - she cried. Then I got some tattoos, she cried more.
As far as I'm concerned, women always look better as boys anyhow!!
I don't think my mother was best pleased about my tattoo either though she did concede that it 'wasn't too bad' when she saw it. I'm plotting more but considering I have negative money in my account that may have to wait for a while!
Tortured, stroppy, nonsensical warts-and-all entries are what Livejournal is for. It's good to see you peeking out from the private curtains once more. Do elves have curtains I wonder... Felt and green if they do I should imagine.
St. Who? I care not for mysterious cards from anonymous admirers. Arse to that indeed!
Felt and green and smelling a bit dank and earthy, I suspect.
You know what is worse than mysterious cards from anonymous admirers? Being subjected to the public pronouncements of adoration by those who have lost their heads to lurve and in doing so, call each other shnooky, and bubsy wubsy and darling bunny and pumpkin and smoochy woochy.
Say what you will about haircuts, I still can't think of you as looking like anything other than Audrey Hepburn.
Burnout and poor? I prescribe hunting out the local cosmetology school and signing up for a cut-rate facial. Don't forget to browbeat the cosmetician: The point of school is for them to learn the industry! You get a skin pampering and catharsis/gestalt therapy! Cheers all around!
When I was a young lass I wanted to look just like Audrey - and then as I grew older I realised that I was stuck with the same face for good, and that no amount of wishing was going to make me refined, beautiful or elegant. What a crushing disappointment that realisation was. Worse than having the Santa myth shattered.
Maybe I need to get myself down for some serious learner driver pampering, perhaps with a decent session of dermabrasion I'll come good - although the browbeating will have to come when facial sandpapering is not on the menu..
Good point, it is unwise to upset the person who's about to grind the skin off your face. But for that, you might want to get someone who's completed their training already. Amateur face-grinding sounds kind of iffy to me.

I've missed you around here, you came to mind the other day when I was looking for a picture of someone and saw yours instead.

I hope that picture didn't burn your retinas.
