Hair Cut and Funny Faces

So, J. Foodie recently suggested that if all the big excitement was in the back of my hair cut then I should probably post photographs of that aspect of my head. Unfortunately I do not have bendy arms, and I think even that element of the cut has grown out a little. And yet I will post additional photographs that do nothing to clarify the situation, mainly because I like the faces that I am making.
Maybe I don't like this face. I think I like the way my neck looks long. Except that may not even be true. I am a crazy person.

i'm sorry your arms are not bendy. i guess that was an unreasonable request, barring possible use of a tripod and lots of mirror angling. or something.

in any case, where do you want your hair to go from here? what is your ultimate hair vision? color? cut? look at me getting all deep into your hair philosophy! i always take a second to admire your hair color in that pic on the right sidebar (under your "knitting" section) of you standing w/your arm around your friend, mid-speaking or singing or something? love it. if only i could pull off such a thing.

sigh. i don't know. i think that i wish i had a different face, one that could take a more dramatic cut. i also wish that i was the sort of person to be willing to futz with and 'shape' their hair each day, which i am not.

i think about going back to red frequently, and sometimes i think about going to a really dark, not black, brown. but as of now i'm doing nothing.

what is your own personal hair philosophy i wonder?

your eye color and skin tone are begging for that red shade again. begging!! i dont know. i just love it. have you messed around with taaz.com (the 'makeover' section)? it's free, you just upload your pic and you can waste hours on there changing cuts, colors, and makeup. it can get fairly absurd. or you can use it in a sane manner and have it be an actual useful tool in color/cut decision-making. absurdity's fun, though.

my hair philosophy? total and complete submission to the ringlet. i have naturally curly hair and i learned fairly early on that i have no interest in following straight/wavy/curly trends. i swear i was the last curly-haired person on earth for a few years there. i get a cut that lets it curl as much as it wants and call it a day. i used to experiment with haircolor, but those days are behind me (manic panic 'pillar box red', anyone? ahhh, college in the late 90's! now i'm getting all misty-eyed).

dude. i don't think that you were in college during the late '90s...as I am older than you, and I was only in college in the late '90s for about four or five months.

whatevs.

dude, i'm not who you think i am! trust me, i'm older than you :)

i had a hunch you were confusing me with someone else. a while ago you advised me to have somebody (you used an initial for their name) take me to some restaurant. and i was all "who the heck is (insert proper initial here) and why would he take me to that restaurant?"

i never mentioned it because i hate hogging your comment space (especially since i don't even know you! :) ) and i figured it might have just been a misdirected comment.

but now your assertion that you're older than me seals the deal. you don't know how hard i wish that you were older than me, trust me!!

wow, my bad j, foodie, it's kind of crazy how long I have thought that you are someone you are not. but, hey, I'm glad you find my blog interesting and that you keep coming back. sorry about the confusion:)

and now you're all 'jeez so who the heck is this stranger who checks back so often?!'

hope it doesn't weird you out. i found you a very long time ago by hitting the 'next blog' button one day. i'm addicted to looking at pictures of food and knowing what people eat (along with the usual hobbies of trying new recipes and eating at new places myself). so since you post a lot of food photography and food-related discussion, you're a bookmark i check quite frequently. it's a bit ridiculous how much i check tastespotting, though. we'll leave it at "multiple times a day".

you're a very friendly bookmark to have for someone who does a freelancing work-from-home gig. thanks for all the good reading and photo-gawking ops you've provided. you've helped to make a lot of slow workdays a bit more bearable!

weirded out i am not. why have a blog if you don't want people to read it? glad that you enjoy and keep coming back!
