Sena's DW :: Watermelon Life

I got my hair cut today. REALLY cut. X33 Like, I got two feet cut off for donating to Locks of Love, and then another half-foot-ish cut off in the process of actually trimming/styling it. ^.^ I literally haven't had my hair this short in about 23 years. Since it grew past this length when I was a toddler.

My head is all light and fwee~ >3<

It was hard describing what I wanted for the cut since I've never had it short before. The poor hairdresser was so confused. So in the end she went "you mean like...?" and I said yes, and if it wasn't exactly what I meant that was fine. It's just hair, it'll grow back. She did a really good job though! The only thing is that it's a teeny bit shorter in the back than I originally meant. It'll grow out to the length I wanted in no time, though. Probably even in time for cosplaying Haruhi at AN. <3

I do have photos, but I'm too lazy and tired to post them right now, so I'll do that tomorrow or something. xD;;

Anyhow, while we were at the mall (where the hairdresser is), I pillaged the discount section at the bookstore. WAH~ they had a TON of awesome books discounted! \o/ But I have no money. >>; Mom took pity on me and got me a couple; SHARKS: Savage Predators of the Oceans by John McIntyre, If You Could See What I See by Sylvia Browne, and A Short History of Myth by Karen Armstrong, all of which totalled about $17. MUCH cheaper than our last bookstore outing.

Today's Random: RudexRufus FTW. Demy-muse APPROVES. ♥ lol.

P.S. I had to get my air conditioner set up. ALREADY. IT'S NOT EVEN MAY. =.=; But unfortunately, it's been hot, and my place always gets way hotter than the rest of the house. I've been boiling the last few days. I only really need it for a couple hours in the afternoon though to keep my place cool while the sun beats in the big front window. After that it's fine.

EDIT: Oh, before I forget. Someone reported one of my submissions at devART as being stolen. The one with photos of my second Kaoru!pony. And the devART staff "reviewed it and found it to be stolen/use of someone else's work without permission." WUT? So I emailed the mods back and I'm hoping to work it out. I am rather annoyed though. :P

Mom and Lee were supposed to come over this afternoon to give me a hand re-hanging my stupid coatrack, as I learned (while trying to put taps in the wall) that there's a stud back behind where it's hanging. So I needed to use longer nails to attach it to the stud, but I didn't have the right screwdriver for it.

Anyway. In the process of doing things today, they forgot, so around 7-ish I called them to ask what was going on. Mom was like "...oops?"

So they came over then, and Lee finished putting the rack back up. Then they stayed for a drink, and Possum wandered around since they'd brought him with them. Loki puffed himself up really big and followed him around all over the place the entire time they were here. ^_^; It was quite funny, actually...

Loki likes to act tough. lol.

Earlier today I wanted to do some craft-y stuff, but to mix things up, I decided to do one of my pencil boxes, instead of a pony. I started painting one that's going to be a simple FMA one; red with Flamel's cross in black on the lid. Easy stuff, but craft-y nonetheless.

I'm doing a bunch of pencil boxes and jewelry boxes and whatnot, as well as my ponies, for next year's Anime North convention.

Yup. Anyhoo.

EDIT: Oh, and Lee had a poke at my air conditioner, and it seems that the reason it's not working properly is because some dust/dirt has gotten past the filter and onto the coils that circulate the coolant. He says he can fix it easily enough with a can of compressed air (he'll open it up and use the air to clean it out), but it'll have to wait until a Saturday when he's not working, and which (hopefully) won't be super hot out. ^^ I'm just happy I don't have to buy a new air conditioner... >^-^;;
