about me

Practically imperfect in every way. Start with a lot of silliness. Mix in some insecurities and a handful of awkwardness. Add a pound of naivety, innocence, and child-like wonderings. Blend well. Half-bake and top off with a sprinkle of imagination and dollop of dreams. It’s the recipe for me!

dumbass quote

  • "I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because, uh, some people out there in our nation don't have maps. And I believe that our education like, such as South Africa, and, the Iraq, everywhere like such as. And I believe that they should, our education over here in the U.S. should help the U.S., or should help South Africa, and should help the Iraq and the Asian countries, so we will be able to build up our future for our children."

In other news…

June 2, 2006

So, it turns out I have a life outside of Whimsy Chick. Imagine that.

This past weekend brought very hot weather to our little Michigan town. I refused to turn on the air this early, so we were a bit uncomfortable on Friday. By Saturday, I couldn’t take the heat. The air went on, and the hair came off. Yes, my hair. I chopped it all off. It was short before, but now it’s short-short. I’ve never gone so short before, so it’s kinda weird. But it’s so cute.

I was somewhat annoyed when the girl who cut it asked me if my husband likes short hair. Why do people always ask that? No one ever asks if my husband likes brown hair, or small boobs, or big butts, or Chinese women, or painted toenails, or… whatever. No one asks those questions because they are absurd. Do men who are married to women with short hair automatically like short hair? Or maybe men who don’t like short hair should leave a woman who cuts her hair short.

No one ever asks a fat women if her husband likes fat women. Why? Because it’s just wrong. I know my hairstylist meant no harm in asking, but it’s the kind of question that puts a person on the defensive. “Does your husband approve of what you are doing?”

BTW, Rob loves short hair.

    Short hair is a riddle.

    Not only that, but honestly, what is he going to say? I mean you WERE standing there, right?!

    You should have asked her if her husband (if she has one) likes women who speak their mind without being asked.:)

    Chris, I can’t tell whose side you’re on. :)
    Janet, Rob wasn’t there. She asked me if he likes short hair. I should have responded, “How the hell should I know?” Is hair preference something that comes up in conversations between spouses?

    Come to think of it, she was making a lot of comments about short hair the whole time she was cutting it. Stuff like, “You’re really brave.” And, “Not everyone can wear their hair this short.” I just don’t know what the proper response is to that.

It’s the spark of an idea that hits me unexpectedly. It’s the silly wonderings I have after a whirlwind of thoughts. It’s about creativity, inspiration, and imagination. But sometimes, it’s just about eating noodles.
