in my next life

I will not dye my hair blue. It's too much damn upkeep, and as I was in the shower last night, I realized that my front was all tie-dyed and when I checked in the mirror, my ears were violet colored.

Oh yeah, I could have done the old vaseline/tamponcotton around the forehead trick, but the entire point is that I am not professional and it all comes out in the wash, anyway. Though a bit grudgingly.

I have enough purple and turquoise blue dye left for possibly another month and a half. After that, it's hello, natural black beauty, farewell youthful dye sluttiness. I think it's just time.

I will miss the peacock feathers of my hair though.

Marvin (the laptop from passive aggressive hell) did not like the network tinkering about and now refuses to connect to the wireless network, despite the tray icon insisting, 'oh no, we're connected to the internet and at EXCELLENT connection'.

WEB OF LIES.

Unfortunately, I paid for two more years of extended warranty and upkeep on him, so when I get my certificate in the mail, I'll send him off for some much needed tuning up (maybe spring for some more memory?) it's not been starting up as quick as it used to, and of course the bastard network thing....and I hate Toshiba Satellites, I really do.

Mommy, I want this. Someone buy this for me.

I will name it Moneypenny and it will live in perfect harmony side by side with Marvin, the technocidal bastard machine.
