Yet, I'm really unhappy knowing my ex-bf is engaged. He's the one I had the least relationship conflict with, which is part of why it's so hard to take. The other part, well, let's not get into that.
Then, today, I go get a long overdue haircut and it went all wrong. I wasn't happy. I wasn't angry, just sad and regretful. I knew as soon as it was done that it was all wrong. Her boss had to 'fix' it leaving me with much, much shorter hair than I'd planned It shouldn't matter. I don't want to care. I go to the cheap teaching place because it's cheap, but also because they usually do a good job. In this case, the job is good, but not what I wanted. And it's totally fucking emblematic of how off kilter everything is in my life. I don't want to be a misery, but I am. And--does my hair look ok or not?
Grateful for: first world problems.
Is this the New Zealand guy who was in the army? As for the haircut, the photo doesn't really show good or bad. If you're not happy, you're not happy. Be grateful that hair grows back.
ReplyDeleteYes, it's the Kiwi. I'd forgotten his blog name, but it's "Kent." And the haircut doesn't look good? C'mon, throw me a bone! I was trying not to show my face too much...so the full impact is obscured.
ReplyDeleteI like it! I don't know what your hair looked like before, but this looks like the kind of cut that can be swept forward for an elegant bob, you can put in a headband and be preppy, or just wear it and let it be windblown and fun. And it looks good!
ReplyDeleteLook at this as an opportunity to treat yourself to a quality cut and style in 2 or three months. Take the day off, schedule an early appointment and spend the rest of the day enjoying your new Fab doo in public.
ReplyDeleteIf you really want to turn it up a notch, sexy yourself up a little outfit and grab an early afternoon drink with a girlfriend @ the Georgetown waterfront. Fall is one of the best times of year in DC.
It looks good to me, and having shorter hair probably helps a bit in this horrendous heat. I like Adam's suggestion too.
ReplyDeleteIt looks super cute! I actually think it is cute all messy and in your face, too, but it would probably be irritating to wear it that way.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about all the other crap.
I love it! Do you feel lighter? :)
ReplyDeleteI think it looks great! Last pic I remember was very very long, in Israel, many yrs ago, sorry I haven't gotten to read lately -- lots to catch up on!

Even though it's messy in the photo, that looks like a good, quality cut. Of course I would say that because I have exactly the same hairstyle, except with bangs. Longer is definitely easier to deal with though, for ponytails and such.
