Little Mary Jane and her Daddy

I had a dream a couple nights back that I was among some decrepit old houseboat type contraptions and that I had to get from place to play by walking across shabby, rotten 2x6's that bridged mucky, green water. Somewhere along all my maneuvering, I came across my dad. He was wearing his old, red, flannel lumberjack coat and he told me he was going to go get high. I dropped everything and went with him.

Now tell me what that means...

Easter treats and hair trims

In honor of the Easter tradition I had growing up of cinnamon rolls and strawberries with powdered sugar, I shared a small feast with my roommate this morning.

Also, here is my new haircut-- documented in typical "internet" fashion (self-shot).

Ciao! and Happy Easter.

You know it's Spring when...

Your fresh pink toe nails and your new purple flip-flops match the Johnny Jump Ups. I love Spring.

Today was one of those "let's inaugurate Spring by cleaning a little" days. First I went outside and wiped off the stool on our porch and watered my plant that was sitting on it. Then I noticed that the rungs on the stool were pretty dusty, so I wiped those off too. Getting down to the bottom, I noticed that the porch itself was looking a little grimy, so I moved the table and chairs to one side and got down on my knees and washed away the months of dirt. Then, standing outside and looking in, I saw that the sliding doors were quite a mess from all the rain we have had, so I gave them a nice little windexing. Everything now looks nice and tidy. It felt so good. When lunch rolled around, my roommate and I had our meal out on the porch. It is such a glorious Spring day!

Whim

For the last few weeks it seems like every time I have gone to brush my hair, I have looked at it in the mirror and longed for change. I am not one for spontaneity, but today I gave in after a few hours of deliberation. Let me tell you-- It's one thing to decide to cut your hair and then go off to the salon, but when that first "chop" is under your control, taking off ten inches is like pulling out a loose tooth. Anyway, I did it. And here is my evidence. (I'd put a picture of me on here, but I'm not ready to take any "self-pictures-for-the-internet." They always look so cheesy).
