Today's topics include: Hair, Tattoos, Surveys, and Stories.

Tattoos. I've been thinking about this off and on now for about a month. Part of me really wants it. The other part is wondering if it's worth it in the long run. I know what I'd like and where I'd want it - a pheonix, on the back of my right hip. The pheonix is sort of important to me because it symbolizes a lot of the things I feel very strongly about. Being reborn from ashes; being able to smile during/after a particularly hellish ordeal. Strength, vitality, new beginnings. After much consideration, I decided on the back of my hip because it's the spot somebody is least likely to see it. Especially considering most jobs will require you to cover up or remove any sort of body mutilation. There's also the fact that I while I may want it to express a certain part of me, I don't want it to completely out there, like say, on my forehead. Let's discuss this, shall we? If anybody has tattoos, or wants one, or if anybody feels it's ridiculous... lemme know why. ^_^; Hair. I've pretty much decided that I'm cutting it short. Well, shorter than it has been. And while I obviously wear my hair short anyway, the style I'm thinking of is something new for me, and I'm kind of excited about it. There's this "Paul Mitchell School Of Hair" place nearby that I'm probably going to go to. I can get the same quality cut there I might get from any other salon for an incredibly beautiful, cheap price because they're students. If they screw up, so what? It'll only be like $10 and it'll grow back anyway. The other thing is that I've been wanting to dye/highlight my hair. Again. I used to have reddish highlights in it, and I sort of miss it. But then again, I'd love to put some dark purple-ish highlights in it, too. Most of my friends say purple, but my parents aren't exactly fond of the idea. They wouldn't pay for it anyway, so that's beside the point. Although, I don't even know if I want to pay for it. So there's that. Stories. I've almost caught myself up. I have to finish both posts (Laeth E'Thae and BFM), but I can happily say that they're almost finished already (in Word). And besides that, I've started to write a little on the side again, and I haven't done that for about a month now. It may not sound like much, but for me, it really, really is. I feel like the creativity is slowly seeping back into me, and that's always nice. Sorry, Ben. =P Also, Kill Adam, anyone? Shy's last post was amazing. I was incredibly sad that it ended the way it did (trying to prevent spoilers here, people) just because s/he was one of my favorite characters, but it does leave a lot open for Volume 2. Which is exciting. So if you haven't already read the end of Kill Adam, I highly suggest going over to OB and doing that, RIGHT THIS MINUTE! Survey. First job: Babysitting.
