Remember when I said the Charles was frozen?

2.11.12

...that lasted all of two days.  It's truly the winter that never came. 

The Blogger Bun

For the past couple weeks, I've been frustrated with buns.  With my hair so long (not quite waist length, but getting there) ---well, the weight of my hair just drags it downward and ends up looking awful.

The solution?  The so-called blogger bun, beloved of the fashionable attendees of Alt Summit out in Salt Lake City.  And my goodness, I do look a bit like Cindy Lou Who, but you know what?  My hair stays put.  It's out of my face, out of the way.  Love it.

Upon request:  me with a blogger bun (sorry about the picture quality, lighting in my apartment at night isn't the best...)

Happy Valentine's Day!

Hearts

Thanks for the candy hearts, mom!

My new shoes.

Why yes, they do have bows on them.  That's how I roll.  (obviously).
