Aug. 6th, 2004 12:02 amI did a Gryffindor thing today. I plunged in recklessly, on a moment's whim, and did something that could have very, very bad results.
My hair was three inches past my waist. Now it is an inch past my earlobes.
Eeek!
And the stylist got what I wanted backwards, so now I look like Mary Tyler Moore. Of course, when I use a hairdryer to fix what it now does "naturally" to do what I wanted it to, I look like a flapper straight out of Chicago. I give up.
(I like it, really...it's just going to take some getting used to. Plus, now that it is short I think I will take some time and play with dyes...I've been thinking about very subtly red highlights for awhile...so that would be a plus.)
In other news, my sister has a new boyfriend and asked me to double with her last night--I asked Chase to go with me. There will be a Van Halen rant/review thing at some point (when it's not incredibly late), but for now I simply have to tell this story: We went to Wyoming.
We were so caught up in an argument about--I think at that point it was how Achilles died (yes, we are nerds)--that we somehow missed a turnoff or took a wrong one or something...and by the time we realised it, we were half an hour away from an exit. We actually crossed the border into Wyoming. This will be one of those memories I will be unable to forget.
I'd forgotten, lately, how truly fond I am of Chase. He's a good person to have a conversation with. I forget that sometimes, but last night reminded me. I really am fond of him for a reason. *hugs Chase*
And last but not least--never work in telemarketing. You will abhor it with the fire of a thousand suns.

I worked at my college's call center and though I dislike telemarketing calls, I am more compassionate about the type of work they do. They're only doing what they're told. =/

Date: 2004-08-23 11:44 pm (UTC)getting the hair chopped off, i know what that's like. i did it for Locks of Love 2 1/2 years ago. went from hair i could sit on to little flip-out couple inches above my shoulder. not as dramatic as the flapper-look, but i'm sure you look wonderful :) and isn't it SO much more wonderful to wash?? :D
lol, yes, i've heard plenty of telemarketing stories from another friend who used to work as one. let's say your combined stories have convinced me to NEVER take that as a line of work ;) talking to the little boy must've been adorably fun, tho <3
