Updates

It snowed today. An inch or so of fluff, but it's the principle of the thing.

I like what I've written so far today. I like finishing chapters. Now, on to the next one.

I've updated the blog again, this time with more timewasting links and tweaks to headings and such.

Oh, and a week or so ago we got the hair cut. It's short, and I like it lots.

Yes I was at Torcon, but your hair was still fairly blonde then, and I recall it still being longish although the exact length has escaped me. I definitely didn't qualify it as short. Then again, that was 2003. Con Jose, it was definitely long and blonde. I thought it looked very nice on you. I don't recall seeing you in Boston and definitely didn't make either Worldcon or Nasfic in 2005. I am hoping to make LA in 2006.

I thought you looked really good with the long blonde hair. I thought it suited you very well and that you were attractive. But since I haven't seen you with short dark hair, I might like that better. I am just having a hard time picturing it. :) I definitely understand the care issues. My long stick straight hair is impossible to do anything with. Basically it is either let it hang or put it in a ponytail. On top of that it is so heavy that it doesn't retain any shape I try to give it and things like barrettes, combs and clips are not up to the task of containing it. I've actually had large banana clips snap under the strain of trying to keep my hair under control. Drying it is a challenge as well. I don't even want to talk about shedding, molting dogs can't out shed me! Vacuuming is always a challenge as the hair clogs the rollers.

From that you would think I would go to a short hair cut, but I do prefer long hair to short in spite of all the hassles. :)

I envy anyone with accessory-devouring hair. I think of the stuff atop my head as dark lint.

At Torcon, my hair was actually chin length or a little longer. I appreciate that you liked it--quite a few folks did. Funny how you can feel uncomfortable with a style or feature even though other people like it.

I'm not sure when I'll be attending Worldcon next. LA is out. Japan is definitely out. Has 2008 been decided yet?

No, they changed the process so that they pick 2 years ahead instead of 3. As a result there was no site selection in 2005. So they will be deciding 2008 this year in LA.

Sorry you aren't going to make LA, and I agree Japan is most likely out of the question. I can't envision having the time and money to go to Japan for a convention, although I would love to do it.
