* I lost the ear infection bet - the doctors proclaimed the Dillo merely sick with a cold. I stayed home with him the rest of yesterday, and he took a monster nap, but we sent him to school today. He's not very feverish at all - less than 100 - and I think just massively annoyed with the apparently endless head cold.

* I love Cathy Horyn, the New York Times' fashion writer. And now she has a blog! (At the Times). Yay!

* I cut all my hair off last night. Well, Bobby, my haircut guy, cut it off. I took in a picture of Jamie Lee Curtis. It's really short. Unfortunately, the Dillo immediately adapted and still stuffs his fists in my hair whenever I pick him up. It's a little butch; I should really wear lipstick or sport cleavage with this hair, just to be safe, except for the whole lazy/not safe for work thing. Casper is such a clown - she was making faces in the mirrors at the haircut place the whole time.

I want to walk that fine line with uber short hair between goth pixie and lesbian soccer mom. It's difficult to find a stylist that understands what I mean.

Yeah, I want punky but not too butch. I have a strong jaw and that makes it hard. I think somehow it would be easier if I wore glasses, so I could wear funky ones. Or just dyed my hair purple, except again with the lazy.

Long earrings not an option due to Mr. Grabby, I guess, huh? Girlish barrettes in the front? With sparklies??

Is this Bobby on 9th street? He guided me happily down the short hair path in a series of ever-shorter steps, and then I flaked out on him and started going to the cheapie place because I'm too much of a spaz to have to make appointments during times when my life is busy. But he's great.

(And it looks great, btw, as I tried to transmit in vague gestures in that incredibly politically unpleasant meeting.)

That's my Bobby! I find I can make appointments on very little notice, and he works evenings and weekends. Come back to the fold!

I remember Bobby from Amych's hair!

With very short pixie cuts having the little points of hair in front of the ear connotes girly-to-gamin. Other useful non-butch signifiers include dangly earrings (contraindicated with the Dillo, but good for work), lipstick and/or mascara.
