Just designed and ordered a MyEdge jacket for my new Kindle.

Now I'm trying to decide what I want to do when I go to the hairdresser tomorrow. For years I've had my about shoulder length, last winter I had it cut a bit shorter and I'm now thinking I might want it even shorter now. What I don't want is having to spend time on my hair in the morning or having to use products as mousse or hairspray.

I don't want to spend time on my hair in the morning either, but sadly enough my hair just wont co-operate If you want a different haircut, I'd advise you to tell your hairdresser that you want to change and ask her/his opinion. That's what I do. And it usually works out ok.

If you absolutely don't want to spend any time on your hair: go really short.

That's what I did years ago, and I've never looked back. I'm very lazy and I love having short hair, particularly in the summer.

I have an asymmetrical hairstyle, so one side is really short and the other longer. You can see it on my profile page. It's similar to the one in the thumbnail (escept for the bangs, which are different). For the short side, I just have to use the blowdryer. For the other side, I have to use the blowdryer and a straightener. Even so, the time I spend on my hair has been cut in half since I got this hair style Maybe when summer truly begins I'll have them cut it all off.

If I would cut my hair really short I think my mother would disinherit me! She has ruined her (already thin) hair with perms and can't let it grown long any more so my sister and I always had long hair. Seven years ago I had it cut shoulder length and loved it. I don't think a really short hairdo would look good on my anyway.

I basically want my hair just past my chin, but not a straight bob, that's too severe I think. I would love one of those messy, just-out-of-bed looks but I don't know if that's possible with my very straight hair.

Tomorrow after work I'll go see if the hairdresser has time to cut my hair or if I need to make an appointment for later in the week.

In the meantime, I had been looking for a new job anyway because of the uncertain situation. I have now been offered two jobs, both paying 20-30% more than my current job. Not sure which one to take yet (they're fairly similar roles) but I plan to take a few weeks off and start one of them towards the end of June.

Don't you just love it when a plan comes together

show a picture!!!

I have almost always had long hair, even in the Army! at one point I could even sit on it! I recently spent about 18 months with shortish hair and spent more time, and money on it than any other time of my life! I HATED it!!! with it long I can wear it loose, put it in a bun, either messy, elegant or severe, braid it and so on. I don't need to blow dry it or mess around with curling irons or straighteners

And the water was almost dried up today when another thunderstorm came through. I'm going to put the ladder on the other side of the pool so we can swim. It may be a while before I'm able to do the concrete.
