Oops... I missed a goal in my reporting on last month. It was the one on being quieter. Yah, we probably did about 10% on that one. We are just loud people, and I don't know how to change that. Not sure if I want to even, anymore. Hmmmm....
Heather is in town! Yay! Can't wait to party it up. Pictures forthcoming.
Got my hair cut and colored the other day. Not sure I like how it turned out. I'm OK with the individual parts, but not sure how I feel about the sum total. I'm not sure the color goes with my skin coloring, which, if you don't know, is baby's butt pink. I have vitiligo, so I don't have pigment in most of my skin. Anywayyyyyzzzz, this brings me to another, more interesting (to me) point. I often berate myself because I don't work harder on my appearance. I want to be cuter. I want to be higher-maintenance. So why don't I? I always write it off as a lack of time and money, which is surely a factor. But I think another big part of it is that I don't think it will really help. I spent $85 on a cut and color that I don't really love. I realize this isn't actually expensive... it's pretty average. But it's a lot for me. Even if I shopped for more stylish clothes, I would have a hard time finding anything that fits the way I like. Even when I get my hair done, I don't think it looks great. Make-up... doesn't ever seem to help, in large part because of the aforementioned pigment problem. Lipstick, and most everything else, looks stupid on me. It would be fun to have nails, but not like that's going to turn me from frump to diva. So I think that's why I just really don't try.
Been watching American Idol. Brittney told me yesterday that one of her friends was like... There's 2 hours of AI on Tuesday, and 2 hours on Wednesday, another hour on Thursday... watching American Idol is like having a part-time job! LOL And true.
Today on the way home from school, Lexi was giving me the report on what she thought everyone was doing. Josh, she informed me, was "at the doctor really bad." Apparently, he swallowed Jello. Since I mostly hate Jello, makes sense to me. And Courtney was at the mall, dancing. Lexi wanted us to go to the mall and check on her.
And speaking of checking on her... guess I better go do that. She and her boyfriend are making dinner, and it sounds like it's heading towards a food fight. Off to save my kitchen and my dinner...

I so totally hear you on the frumpy thing. It would be one thing if I knew what I was lacking and how to get to another level. But I'm not even sure what to do, so I just don't do it. And of course, I hate the whole spend a lot of money on a less-than-perfect result.
Oh well. Good thing we're not in high school anymore, right?
I totally hear you. I am frumpy. I don't do my hair, have minimized the amount of make-up I use, I don't like the way clothes fit, so I don't buy any. I like to think it's a money issue and once I have some money that I will do better. But I doubt it. I can hardly bring myself to pay Great Clips-price for a haircut. I seriously think it's because Peter has rubbed off on me!! But I guess that's a good thing because there is NO WAY we would have survived the last 10 years financially if I had been high-maintance. And Shannon stop with the whole pigment thing. You honestly can't even tell. Our skin is probably the exact same color. Seriously.
Yep, been there. Thinking that spending money on a hair cut and color would make all the difference for me. NOT. I usually cut my own hair. Now THAT'S cheap. As for clothes, I've always wanted to look cute, but feel more comfortable in sweats or jeans and shirt w/flip flops. LOL
Oh well...........
We're still loved, right? that's what matters most
oh I can so relate to this! I go to my classes and I can really see how out of style I am... I did just get my hair cut and got highlights, second time ever getting highlights.. 75 bucks? that just kills me. and for what? I dont' think it looks much different... I don't see the point, if I could get away w/ it (as in not too much attention) I woudl totally shave my head. Hair is so over rated.
As for makeup- if I ever am at the mall w/ curt he will be like, don't you want to get one of those makeover things (you know at the makeup stands like cliniqe) I am like WHY? Why would I curt? :) No I am sure I could use the help, I just dont' care that much.
I could go on and on. I totally get you. have a good night
