what to do when you are covering the front desk

a. i find the alatriste teaser endlessly hilarious. it is obstensively a non-speaking trailer -- the only audible human noise is viggo's "let us now go nobly into certain death!" noise, which is sort of a, you know, "AAAAAAARGHAAAAH!" kind of sound. it is instantly recognizable in the trailer from all the appearances that it made in the three lotr ( Read more... )

i go from day to day, lettered lists, rhymes with dammit

i totally feel you on the hair thing. i go through periods of cutting it short to make it easy, but then grow it long, only to put it up all of the time. and the wet mop to damp mop problem is one that i am still dealing with. i have finally just accepted that i am a contrary person, who can never be happy with her hair. the worst part for me, though, is the cat sitting on my head at night, making it even messier.

--well, hey, at least i don't have a cat! no, i got into this mess by accidentally wrecking my hair and having to get it all cut off about 2.5 years ago. so i've been growing it out through many thick, curly mushroom cloud stages, and now i'm like ... great, i have 28 pounds of long hair, what do i do with this?

i am constantly battling with my hair as well. it is just straight and it just lies there and does nothing and is not effortlessly cute like the straight hair of other girls and i'm not sure what they're doing so different but it's maddening. so like, every spring i'll get it cute chinlength or a little shorty and it's supposed to be all choppy and cute but other girls do it so much better and then i let it grow long again with all kinds of I'MA DO CUTE THINGS WITH IT intentions but then my arms hurt from holding it out from my head and reaching behind my head and doing stuff and then i give up and let it hang there and it's boring.

anyway.

i am, obviously, one of those wretched girls with insanely thick, ridiculously curly hair who is like ZOMG YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW LUCKY YOU ARE I WISH MY HAIR WAS JUST STRAIGHT IT WOULD BE SO SIMPLE.

sigh.

i am watching a pirated copy of king kong. therefore, i really have nothing, other than you/your very long very curly very aj of 106 & park hair = ultimate otp of my heart. also, seriously, if i haven't cut the shit on my head before we hit boston this spring, i need you to express extreme surprise because it needs to go.

am replying to comments while i wait for the wretches to fire up the wretch show, and -- i'm not going to tell you to cut it because i liked it longer! so there.

have you tried cute, kicky scarves fashioned into headbands, or braids?

throughadoor February 1 2006, 02:20:47 UTC

i know this seems counter-intuitive, but braids actually make my hair straighter.

i just wanted to commiserate about the hair thing, zomg. it is less a problem now that i am rocking the short hair, but when it was long (and while i was home, two weeks ago? the boy drunkenly said, "i liked your hair better long, why'd you cut it all off?" which made me weep drunkenly in the bar that was not a bar but actually a genii bunker), there would be stages of weeks at a time where my hair would never actually be dry completely.

i always kind of worried about it starting to mold, if you want to know the truth.

dude, i feel you. i'm pretty sure my hair hasn't been completely dry since 1989.
