Yaaawn! Late night last night = late start this morning, but that's okay. The sky is blue, the light has a slight autumn-tinge to it, and today is going to be fab. *g*

Some more reading. I thought I'd scanned this one myself, and I'm sure I've posted it before and puzzled over the fact that there's a missing half-headline on pages that are sequential without an obvious page missing, but I can't find the mag on my shelf to double-check, so maybe I'm mis-remembering. Does anyone have it? Fab208 29th July 1978, according to my filename. Hmmn! Maybe it's in my Big Box of Pros Stuff...

But I must work today! Get on with it!

Oh, also? Yesterday's haircut may be the worst I have ever had. I knew I should have gone back to Cambs. for it! Now that it's not styled by the hairdresser and is doing it's now-I'm-curly thing, he bits that should be short are long, and the bits that I wanted out of my eyes are in my eyes, and just... gargh!

Nope, you're not misremembering! My copy of that mag is exactly the same! *g* It must have been a bad day at the Fab 208 office that day...

I dread the idea of having to change hairdressers. I've been going to my current one for at least ten years - when I walk in she says "The usual?" and I just nod... Which probably makes me extremely boring, but at least I know that I'm going to get a decent haircut. I've no idea how I would describe my hairstyle to somebody new!

Ah, thanks for that - I was sure I'd been through all this before! *g*

I'd had the same hairdresser almost since I got to Cambs., and I could trust her enough that I could say "please do something cool" and she'd do something brilliant that would grow out really well... Her last cut lasted me seven months, with just a few fringe-trims... I'm no good at either describing cuts or spotting cuts that would fit my face (I know what i like on beautiful skinny-faced models, but... *g*) but I can usually say what I need (something that doesn't make me look like a tiny head on a huge body, with a fringe that doesn't get in my eyes, and vaguely suits my face) and get something perfectly fine... *sighs* I'm sure this chapess is fab with hair for people who're happy to spend an hour styling it in the morning and then all day making sure it still looks like that, but... so not me. *g*
