A downside to having shortish hair: when I don't want to wash it, I can't put it in a bun. I can't figure out any way to hide it, short of wearing a scarf over my head all day which I don't think I can quite pull off.
Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage, and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

I'm glad he's headed home, Kat.
This weather pattern just blows.

-t -- on the other hand, with short hair, you can sprinkle on some corn starch or talcum powder and brush it thoroughly through and out. That works surprisingly well, at least for a day.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
So I walked to the train station in the supposedly -35 windchill. I got kinda warm, so I guess I overdressed. The face mask made my glasses frost over so I took it off. Aside from that I was fine.
Eta: oops, windchill is only -26. That explains why I wasn't cold.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I just sent out an email canceling my classes for today. I'm already sick, and the windchill isn't supposed to get above -10 all day, and I just don't think my lungs can handle walking back and forth across campus in this.

The wind picked up while I was on the train. When I got off my lack of long underwear was really noticeable.

I'm leaving for my 4 week post-broken-toe checkup! I'm seriously wondering if they'll even bother xraying. Hoping I'll be cleared to go back to regular shoes....

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Good news, Frank and Kat.
Not washing my hair is really my new favorite thing. I am grateful that my hair tends to be dry, because at least it never looks greasy. And sometimes looks best on day 3! (I am in no way prepared to no-poo it, though.)
