This place doesn't

This place doesn't get enough traffic.

Hi.

I don't really know, I just watched the entirety of Sherlock season two in one afternoon (love you, NetFlix) and my brain went away and cried in the finale. And so did my heart and liver and stuff. Basically... yeah.

I also dyed my hair silver. It used to be blond, but it looks really weird and cool this way. Mybe I'm just strange. I'll go sit in the corner and think about my strangeness.

And then somebody hit me in the head with a golf ball. Not very hard, but it was still a golf ball and it was still my head. I think Doc Block has a curse. Bad things seem to happen to the people who touch Doc's Darth Vader poster. Like, they break bones or fail tests or fall asleep on the delete button. It's creepy.

Oooh! I found an entertaining thing on FictionPress! It is called Help! A Ninja Stole My Plot and Other Nano Related Mishaps. I think it's hilarious. And then there's my poem "From Roommate to Roommate: Confessions of a WriMo" to commemorate all of the strange things that happened to me this year during NaNo. Do not laugh. I admit, I am not the best poet. But they all happened. So there.

I'm sorry I stayed up 'till 2 AM
And kept you awake with my typing
I'm sorry I fell asleep the next day
And blamed it all on your Skyping

I'm sorry I ate all the chocolate chips
They tasted better than mints
I'm sorry I hid your clock in the closet
You weren't taking my hints

I'm sorry I quoted profusely at you
I didn't think you'd mind
I'm sorry I almost called the police
When the notebook I couldn't find

I'm sorry I built a fort in the room
And wouldn't let you come in
I'm sorry I almost ate your cat for breakfast
Millie isn't comparable to a pin

I'm sorry for a lot of things
But really, you should be too
Because I have got a novel now
After al this, do you?

Yeah, yeah, laugh all you want. This is my random place for random things. But really, what's new?

This is my official "I'm Back" thread. *cue lights*

back to the Down to Earth

You used to have blond hair? For some reason, I always pictured you with green hair.

Nah, blond. I mentioned once on a "what do you think CBers look like" thread that I wanted to dye my hair silver or green, was that it?

Is it strange that the first two people to comment on this are essentially your archrivals in conquering the world? Also, hi.

Of course it isn't strange. Not at all.

DUDE YOU DYED YOUR HAIR SILVER. THAT IS AWESOME. I have always wanted to dye my hair but my parents are dead-set against it : ( SO I think it's really cool when other people dye theirs.

Hi! Welcome back! So cool you dyed your hair silver. My mom suggested once I dye my hair orange, like, bright pumpkin orange! She was serious too! I just about did it, till one of my friends completely freaked out at the idea. No, my mom is not crazy, or a hippie. We merely thought it would be funny! Plus, it wasn't going to be permanent permanent. Just last a while.

Hey, that's cool. My hair's too dark to be dyed anything without bleaching it to death first, and I dislike bleaching hair. I think it's kind of silly, but that's just me.

Oh, hi, too. The poem sounds about accurate for any kind of NaNo experience.

I've never seen anyone with silver hair before.  That must look interesting.  I've never really wanted to dye my hair before because it's a really pretty caramel shade with natural platinum blond highlights.  I've always wanted just one oddly-colored streak, though.  My mom is finally letting me get a pink streak in my hair for my good grades!  I'm getting it after Christmas.

Does anyone know where I can find an assortment of hair streaks? I've tried Walmart, and all they have is like pink, blue, and yellow. I want things like silver, green, purple, heliotrope, and pretty much any other unusual color. Also, I really like the silver hair thing! SO COOL!

 

I love the word heliotrope, though I can never remember exactly what color it is!

Admins: Heliotrope is a kind of purple. Not sure exactly what shade.

I just got it done at the hair-cutting place that I always go to. They have a bunch of stuff on shelves, and I picked one. I don't know where ou would get streaks, though, they only have the whole shebang.

Hmm. I'll have to check. But I want something temporary. I don't want to do it for good, or even a while. I want it to wash out.
