5 questions from George and Mary.

They're having a grand ol' time in Chapel Hill, and I miss them terribly. But they ask me questions, and I have to answer.

1. Seeing as you are a licensed hair dresser, have you ever cut your own hair? And we're not just talking about back when you were 7 years old & you tried to trim your bangs by yourself. Everybody did that.

Yes. I've given myself layers many a time. And back when I was a rebellious teenager, I shaved the bottom half of my head all by myself. But the full haircut, I can only remember doing once, and that was 3 days before I was going to London. I wanted to do something different with my hair, and no one I worked with wanted to cut my hair. So I did it myself. I wanted it to look piece-y and uneven, and it certainly did, but not in a good way. Plus, I ended up cutting it alot shorter than I had intended. I didn't want to go to London with short hair, but there ya go. I guess it didn't look too bad, looking back at pictures. But at the time, I was an unhappy camper. And this is when I realized that I can't cut my own hair, and shouldn't even try. Except for bangs. And layers.

2. How long do you think you could go without saying The F Word in any form - verbal, written, sign language, etc. No substitutions like "frickin" are allowed, either.

Oh, dear. I can go without dropping the f-bomb all day if I have an f-bomb-like word to use. Hm. I suppose if I needed to, I could go a couple days. But after the couple days were over, I'd go into a Tourettes like f-bombing, and then all would be well with the world again.

3. If you could create your dream lipstick, what would it be like? What would you name it?

I'm always searching for the perfect lipstick. I did have it once, and wouldn't you know, I made it myself? cheap red lipstick, red, black, and brown powder food coloring. Srsly, I rule. but as for finding it in a tube, it has to be a deep red, with no hint of orange or pink. It can't be too bright. It can't be too purple. It has to be a true red, but deep and a bit dark. But not burgundy. I'll know it when I see it.
And if I made it, it would be called "Sexed Up". Yeah. Because red lips like THAT are all about bringing the sexy back. Aw yeah.

4. What animals of the household pet variety are you NOT allergic to? Would you like to have any of them in your house?

Well, if it has fur, I'm allergic. Which means I'm not terribly allergic to snakes and lizards. But I have no desire to have a pet snake, or pet lizard, thankyouverymuch.
Isn't sad how I'm allergic to all the cute, fun things?

5. What's the best thing you've ever inherited? Note that the person does not have to be a relative; nor must they be dead.

Definitely Babushka. The weird looking Papier-mâché bag lady thing George gave me when her and Derek moved out of the apartment by the highway. I love that thing so much, and I can't for the life of me explain why. I remember going over to the apartment, and just staring at the thing, picking it up, Whatever. Its creepy, kinda, and..and..its PAPIER MACHE, FOR CRYING OUT LOUD. But its the best thing I've ever inherited. thanks George!

bebe pitcher

My sister and her baby, Noah. He's looking at her all "who the hell are you? You look weird."
But seriously..look at all his hair!

its a baby!!!!!

Noah Samuel Taylor was born April 10, 2007, at 10:22pm. He weighed in at 6.2 lbs, 22 inches long, and a head full of dark hair. He is, of course, gorgeous, and as soon as I can get the pictures, I'll post 'em. If you can't wait, go to www.hillcrest.com then go to the internet nursery, then put in april 10 2007 for the birth date, then look for Noah T. 4 pictures are there.

Melissa, my hardcore sister, after actually giving birth, then also cut the umbilical cord, because her hubby is a bit, shall we say, queasy.

I can't wait to meet him!
