I had a really nice surprise when I came back from my lunch workout today. The loveliest bouquet of yellow and sunset roses were sitting on my desk in a pretty brass-colored jar-like container. They were from Vanessa, as a thank-you for being there for her. Awww, thank you for the flowers, Vanessa! Being the good friend that I am, I know what she really wants. So I’m posting a photo of my hair under the guise of taking a photo of me with her flowers. Please keep in mind that I’m bloated from PMS, and not just bloated, but especially bloated cuz my monthly visitor is running late. So I’m not at my best.
I just got back from my forced march to see the movie 300. The only thing I’m gonna say about it is that it’s Gladiator meets Lord of the Rings meets Kill Bill. I like to go to the movies to relax and have a feel-good air when I walk out. Instead, this is what I looked like coming out of the movie.
Vanessa’s on her date watching this movie tonite. I wonder if she’ll wear the same expression. She’ll probably enjoy it, though. Altho, I did learn one thing from the movie. I do not have elongated nipples. Sorry, Jordan.
I forgot to add another thing that I was grateful for yesterday, aside from good friends and having hair that a salon could screw up. I’m happy that I found my old jazz shoes before bellydancing yesterday, because we did so many chaine (pronounced shuh-NAY) turns that it would’ve been impossible barefoot. I would’ve been screeching haltingly on the wood floors, or flying across them uncontrollably if I were in socks. Who knew that bellydancers did chaine turns? I was also grateful for my prior dance experience.
Here’s a normal-ish photo. These photos make me want to post some old really good photo to redeem myself. But this isn’t my laptop. 🙁
A. The movie sounds perfect, I’m dying to see it.
2. I think your hair looks good.
III. TMI!!!!!!!
Boy, it’s a good thing I didn’t post that photo of me in my underwear that I WAS gonna post to “redeem” myself. now THAT would’ve been TMI. Thanks for the haircut compliment, Bat!
i like it!! the layered look is actually easy to care for. but you should use a little “water wax” from redken or similar similar to get it a little more shine and control.
my bangs are about that long, too. so i just use a bobby pin to pin it back for working, etc. and it works well.
Hey Cindy,
I dont know why you say you don’t like your hair. I think it looks good!
Are you saying that there are elongated nipples in 300??? One of my coworkers yesterday also mentioned he saw it and really liked it. It’s funny cuz I never heard of this movie before. I’ll have to check this one out. Especially if there are elongated nipples!
Nice! I like the layered look too.
I like your hair Cindy!!! Bat went to the theater today to see that movie by himself while I was at the spa but they sold out of the 3 shows at the IMAX and regular theater. I wonder if he might go see it Tuesday when he is off work–then I won’t have to go!!
Beautiful flowers–Vanessa is a true friend!
Diana – so far, it hasn’t been bad. I have to blowdry it in with my brush attachment, so that adds 5-10 mins to the morning routine, but that’s it. Haven’t tried the wax yet. I don’t have control issues, tho. It’s also weird that for the first time since, like, high school, I’m seeing just my hair’s natural color. This cut took the rest of the coloring out. It’s so dark!
James – I personally think the white chick who plays queen in 300 has WAY more protrusive nips than me. You almost wanna duck in the seat for fear of having your eyes put out. Or maybe I’m thinking of the teenage girl who played the oracle that had the protrusive nips.
Jordan – thanks! Layers look nicer with coloring to show it off, tho. Cuz when it’s dark, it’s just a mass of darkness, you can’t see the layers. I think I’m gonna highlight it real soon.
Flat Coke – It’s a good story, I believe it was based on history. Aside from the blood, the cinematography is amazing. You can take a still of almost any scene and frame it. Especially the one where the queen was having anal with the traitor guy. (you wanna see it now, don’t you?) I think they filmed it with the actors then went over the images with computer graphics, like how they did What Dreams May Come. The 6-packs on the men can’t be ALL real. Actually, all the Spartans seemed to have 8-packs. They were naked all the time. (Now you really wanna see it, don’t you?)
naked guys with 8 packs? I’m so watching the movie! haha. actually i love effects movies so i had wanted to watch it anyways. L says i’m like a boy since i watch to watch all the sci – fi typical boy movies.
love the hair. i think the layers frame your face really well. and i like the dark color also. recently i’ve also stopped dying my hair since i think having dark hair is coming back in. or maybe i’m watching too many korean movies that i bought from HK. haha. all those girls are hot and have dark hair.
Ok, Flat and I caught 300 today. Let me just say, on an IMAX screen? the nips are the size of a hubcap.
Dammit, nips and anal on screen? I wanna see 300 now!
Mel – Dark’s back in? Maybe I’ll keep my natural color just a tad longer, then.
Bat – RIGHT? I am so over my nipplage self-consciousness now.
TurboTiger – and don’t forget the 6-pack abs on the guys (who, incidentally, are also wearing tight black leather g-strings that show off their packages. Haha.).
What??? Guys…. in G-Strings… showing their packages…..
Maybe I need to skip this movie after all!
You’re welcome! It was a little something to let you know that you are the BEST!!! And I REALLY appreciate having such a great person like you to call my friend!
Cute do! You could do a lot with it!
I really like 300! It made me want to work out, get killer abs and practice hard core. Plus, the men’s bodies are great eye candy! I used to watch He-man when I was younger and it’s as if He-Man just took human form. Yummy! 🙂
Oh… I just emailed you about my date! 🙂
I like your photo comment “Hair I am”
