I miss confessions, shall we?

    I'm going to have to look up fair-trade chocolate again.

    I wanted to be into Dooce, but I could never get into her. I started her book like 3 years ago and never finished. But, now that there's an unraveling marriage, I might be able to try again.

    Fenton- the Jersey in me says get blond highlights and make sure they're as "streaky" as possible. Here we say, "make them dramatic" to the hairdresser but it's the same idea. I like it. I do it every spring/summer.

    I left the house without even looking in a mirror this morning. I had to wipe under my eyes in the car with a napkin because I looked like a walk of shame, for no good reason, and that's how I went to take E to class.

    I'm up .8 oz of fat this week because I had way too many "challenges". During E's shoot I was all stressed out so I ate whatever they had on the Craft service table. Including but not limited to peanut m&m's and chocolate croissants. Maybe a piece of bacon. Plus we went to the movies and I wasn't going to sit with Marky Mark for 2 hours without a faux-butter overloaded small popcorn. Then I had to eat my MIL's "food" for dinner and I don't know what was in there. It was a bad week.

    I'm not reading about dying babies. But, B was able to make a whole park in his hometown when his best friend died flying one of those little JFK Jr planes when they were 24. If he could do that, I'm sure people can plant a tree. It just seems like giving them money would be more helpful and appreciated. You never know- B is comforted by the park but his friend wasn't his baby. I can't even imagine.

    Oh, and when I ate Lucky Charms every day, my piss smelled like old cereal. It was gross. B told me I had to stop eating Lucky Charms.

    fenton, i don't like the term streaks. It makes me think of noticeable stripes that would make you look like a zebra.

    Some zebras are pretty.

    yeah, but most look like thisimage

     

  • Fenton--think caramel, not blonde.

  • Fenton, I think your dark hair is lovely. Don't get streaks.
  • I just read the latest Dooce post and actually LOL at the melodrama of it all.  G-bus. I prefer my bloggers intentionally funny.

  • I'm actually finding the dissection of it on get off my internets more interesting reading than anything she or her husband are posting themselves.  I think she's coo coo roo and cannot fathom living such a navelgazing, narcissistic life as the sole income for my family.

    I hope they have a nest egg set aside for the therapy their kids will most certainly require.

    That Tripp stuff is just heartbreaking.  I can't really think about it or my head and heart might both explode.  As it is, I was horsing around with MC last night and kind of dropped her....she was a little shaken but fine, kids are hardy, meanwhile I agonized over how I could have potentially damaged my child and had problems falling asleep.

    Gah, his post about broke my heart. Maybe I need to be more cynical but ugh.

    You really do.  It read like a "somebody give me a job" post to me.  To which my thought was, biitch please. I'll get a job outside of "Armstrong Media" but Imma taking a big ol' chunk of the profits with me when I go.

    And this:  I don?t think I?d be able to write this or even be public at all without the support of my mom and my siblings.  ...  There is a very large part of me that wants to dive right in to the self-pity pit. I don?t think doing that publicly is productive right now.  

     How about DON'T.  How about discussing any of this publicly isn't productive for your children.

  • Yes, the "somebody give me a job" was....what's the word I'm looking for....false?  The words at face value were somewhat "aww shucks I'm in a bad place and I'm hoping someone will take a chance on me" but the underlying message was "I've been riding co-pilot on a social media phenom for the past decade and now I'm ready to sit back and let the offers roll in from Corporate America.  I know I've leaned pinko commie in the past, but now its time to show me the money, capitalist biatches."
    Listen, I'm sad for anyone going through marital trouble/separation/divorce.  Sad for them.  Sad for their kids, sad for their dogs.  But I have no illusions that this is just the latest chapter of their lives that will be exploited for dolla bills.

    Yes, because these people MUST live publicly or it doesn't count.

    I need a dollar dollar, a dollar is what I need
    hey hey
    Well I need a dollar dollar, a dollar is what I need
    hey hey
    And I said I need dollar dollar, a dollar is what I need
    And if I share with you my story would you share your dollar with me

  • That baby's story is beyond heartbreaking.  I cannot even imagine. 

    Fenton-  I had some slightly-lighter-than-caramel colored highlights done last spring, done in that "ombre" style that was becoming all the rage.  I loved it, and it required zero upkeep since they already look grown out from day one.  And they're not streaky, so it was more subtle, and there was never a defined horizontal line of roots as they grew out.  They still look pretty great almost a year later (I've been too cheap and lazy to get a re-touch...mostly cheap).

    That's my long-winded way of saying go for it!  But not the harsh zebra stripe route

  • Thanks to her celebrity doppleganger, I am able to give you an idea of how Fenton would look with blonde highlights:

  • I bought a memorial tree for a family friend who lost her 18 month old last summer. It was inexpensive.

    Fenton, I do not approve of highlights. Unless they were only a shade or two lighter than your natural color. I do that in the summer to break it up, otherwise the curlies make me look like Stern.
