I have nothing to post
I was trying to think of something and I'm at a loss. I have no idea what's happening with news, so no current events topics. I don't have anything exciting planned this weekend except the hair removal. And all I can think of for personal stories is that I had to explain to Twan what plaid was the other night (he had a plaid shirt that I referred to as "that plaid shirt" and he said, "this isn't plaid" which led to a side eye of epic proportions).
And I have to speak at a faculty meeting today, at which time I will probably be publicly slaughtered. Higher ed faculty are Mariah-like divas most of the time, if you didn't know.
And someone help me decide if I should just get a few inches taken off my flowing, frizzy Janis Joplin hair if I should chop it off. I have thick pube hair, so the chopping is scurry, but I probably have enough for locks of love. what to do?

You could post about how you're going to buy a plane ticket to come here in October...

I'm running on empty when it comes to topics to discuss too. My brain is too wrapped up in trying a work problem these days to think about much else.
Mr. Spiderman heard the word "chillax" on NPR this morning and asked me if I had ever heard it used before because he hadn't. When I laughed at him, he said, "How come I haven't heard this word before?" And I told him it's because he lives under a rock.
In order to weigh in on your hair, I need a picture of it as it is right now and a picture of what you're thinking of chopping it to.

Well if Christin would upload her pics like I asked, you would have something to look at.
Speaking of which, she also tried to get me to come to Boston. But that weekend is the exact same weekend as a family wedding in Florida. I think we're bailing on the wedding, but oh my god, if my ILs found out I went somewhere else that weekend, the shizzle would hit the fan. Christin is like, Oh your MIL will never know. But I have been at too many family dinners where Twan blurts something out he wasn't supposed to tell them and I do that slow head turn with huge eyes thing at him....it's too risky, trust me.

If it was for work, wouldn't they pay the airfare?
And are you suggesting I lie to my husband? I would never lie to him, unless it's about my fertile time.

See, this is why combining your finances is stupid.
Groomz, it's not my fault you never check your email. And that you assume you have any choice in the matter to begin with.

You'll be happy to know that Karma is biting me in the ass for making a stink about the comfort vs fashion shoe debate.
i bought a nice pair of strappy gold heels as per the brides request a couple of months ago (buy early for best selection, right?) but she sent me a very hinting e-mail the other day that the other two bridemaids had bought shoes together and they are bronze. being an accomodating bridemaid (and shoe lover) i said I have no problem buying a second pair of shoes. So she sent me a picture:

I HATE them. a) they're plastic and it's a WEDDING
b) they have no heel and I'll look stumpy and
heelcorn) I BOUGHT BEAUTIFUL $100 SHOES
these are the ones I bought

There is no reason to spend $30 on flip flops. None. And this is coming from the girl who spent over $500 on a single pair of shoes.
All this hair talk. At my hair appt earlier this week, I got an awesome shag (yeah, baby). I'm into it bc it the layers lighten up my normally very heavy, thick hair, and even when I don't dry it, it looks good bc it's got a little wave to it. So, I recommend a shag. The end.
I am wondering this too. Checks?
Those shoes are something else.
I'm channeling TSD today. I finally went to the gluten/free dairy free bakery and bought some cupcakes. I'm enjoying my second and last one right now. I definitely should have gotten more, because they're awesome.
The nerve!

Sometimes I wonder if scientists have never seen a sci-fi movie before. "Oh yes, let's create a super species of deer. NOTHING COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG." I wonder if State Farm offers a Zombie Deer Attack policy. -CaliopeSpidrman
