Brainfart

Throughout many a day, I think to myself 'hey, I'll write about that on the blog', but when I sit down to write a post for Tuesday or Thursday, those ideas all scamper away like frightened bunnies.  Sunday's easy - it's Update day.  The other two days?  Brainfart.

Speaking of bunnies, we finally saw bun-bun again.  He was hopping through the back yard a couple days ago.  I have no clue where he goes when he leaves.  As far as I know, rabbits don't really have a huge territorial range.  But I could be wrong. 

Speaking of speaking of, Hubs does this thing where he'll say 'speaking of :insert whatever we were talking about:' and then he'll say something that is totally unrelated to anything we were talking about.  Like "Speaking of yard work, I need more coffee."  Cracks me up every time. 

You might've seen on FB - you know, if you follow me on FB (and if you don't, go here and rectify that if you so choose) - I finished cutting my own hair yesterday.  I say finished because I cut the bangs and the sides several days ago, but the back... Let's just say I was formulating a plan on how to cut the back of my hair without leaving me looking like 'hair by Cuisinart'.  Well, I finally hit on an idea and tried it yesterday.  It looks pretty darn good.  It's finally the length I prefer.  And I don't look like I stuck my head in a food processor.  No pics, though. 

I've discovered that I really don't like having my picture taken anymore.  I know what I look like and if we aren't on vacay or someplace special, I don't need a pic to remember what I looked like on an average Thursday.  :shrug: 

Okay, back to my morning routine.  And I'll leave you to go back to yours.  Feel free to tell me about anything that pops into your head.

  1. I get brain farts ALL...THE...TIME. I hate it. Even when my husband does something stupid and says, "Okay, now you have something to blog about," I still forget! Okay, some I DO remember, but they aren't fit to print, if you know what I mean. Hahahahaha! :)

    1. Ugh, I feel your pain, Stacy. And yeah, LOL, some of those things husbands do aren't fit for the web. ;o)

  2. Sigh to brain farts. Double sigh to photos. I wrote an article recently, and they asked for a photo. The one I sent must be 20 years old, and full length. Well, I was in costume, and it's a costuming article. :-)

    1. My current photo is from this year, Deb. I can't imagine using one from 20 years ago. But yeah, if it fits, and it looks good, go for it. =o)

  3. What was your plan for the back of your hair? I ask because I can snip my own fringe but find the back difficult and if you've discovered the formula please share.

    1. It's hard to explain, Fran, but I'll try. What I did for all of it was sweep it forward toward my face and cut in a downward angle so it was all the same distance from my nose (about mid-cheek). When I got to the back, I parted it as best I could down the back of my head, swept each side forward and then cut using the same principles, but using the line of between the muscle and the windpipe. Then I kind of trimmed until it looked even, swept it all back into place and snipped anything that looked longer than the rest. It's not perfect, but it worked for me.

      I hope you could understand what I meant there. Good luck! And hey, the worst that could happen is it's uneven and you have to pay someone else to fix it. Either way, it grows back. =o)
