The splendor and the wonder

[gwyn]

I hate posting pics of myself (I hate taking them, so I rarely do), but I have to show off my cool new hair! I went for my pre-VVC cut and color and I couldn't decide what to do for my hair, but I knew I wanted something pretty dramatically different. I was thinking of either doing a ruby/burgundy red with something else, or what I was really leaning towards, a silvery grey/lilac like Kelly Osbourne's hair here. I'm probably one of the only people who likes her hair like that, but I do. ANYways, I ended up opting for a burgundy shade with flame red and violet sections, and I really like it! I think I would have liked the Kelly hair, too, though. Maybe next time. I have a feeling it will already be fading by con time, but here's what it looked like today -- each picture looks a little different because for some reason, the three separate colors only came out in different light (the ruby in sun, the flame in shade, and the violet in indirect sun). Go figure. Just ignore my fat ugly face.








And an extra pic of Mr. Baby, who had to check out the camera. Poor little guy, he's really wilting in the heat and so scared of the fan.

Something I've meant to say for a long time and I never remember/think to do: If anyone wants to do a podfic recording of any of my stories, you are more than welcome to. I'd love to know about it if you do, but this is blanket permission. Also, if you want to pick up after a story or continue something of mine, you're welcome to, I'd just love an acknowledgement. Snady worked on me about this for years, and I wish I'd had the chance to tell her I'd changed my tune about things.

I can hardly believe it's five days till VVC. Augh! Five days!!! WTF. How did that happen? I need to make some dvds and get my shit together. I do have a fabulous outfit for Club Vivid (and now fabulous hair), but I don't think I have a single other thing ready. Entirely unprepared. Gah. If all goes well (and it rarely does with O'Hare) I should be in the hotel by 3 or so.

Oh, you suck! I went and got my hair cut and colored yesterday and I had to say "Just a tiny bit of red. Just a little. Because my asshole workplace is incredibly conservative and that's all I can get away with" when what I wanted to say was "PURPLE. BRIGHT RED. GO FOR IT. ALL THE COLOR. MAYBE ANIME PINK WHAT DO YOU SAY???".

I will go sulk now over your incredible reds and burgundy's.

Yet one more reason why we MUST get you out of there -- I want you to have anime pink hair. That would be so cool with your curls.

The color looks fantastic, and I really love the shorter, edgier, rocker-chick cut, too!

Btw, I love Kelly Osbourne's hair. I think that color could be a really fun change, if you ever decide to try it.

Your hair is awesometastic!

hey, nice!

You'd fit in with the hipster crowd in Boston. Actually, I don't know what hipsters look like, but a lot of trendy tat-covered people seem to have hair in that range now.

Have a good con!!
