A Need
Yes. That's me. In a green feather boa. Um. Yeah. A boa. I love it.
I woke up this morning and immediately had a need to accessorize. I just wish I could get out of the house a bit easier (sans mask) so I could rock out with my block out.
I dig the new do. It's kind of weird as you catch yourself in the mirror and go... woah. I'm bald.
So me and my homegirl (Meerkat in the background - heh), and Sis #3 went and hit up Loehmans. Was weird shopping, but I think everyone understands the need for good hat and good earrings. No matter what.
I did miss a milestone today - Zoe lost another tooth. But she left me a quick message. She's currently camping today with my sweeties D1 and Paige -- right on the lake. She's now a 3 time camper - she even picks up worms to fish and stuff.
I miss her so much. I think I have that thing that peeps get when they lose an appendage. I'm so used to Zoe sleeping on my arm every night for what??? three years now, that it's weird to go to sleep without her. I have a hard time sleeping without her. And when I see her picture, I get that pang of ... damn, I miss my baby. Just like when she went to dad's in NY this summer. No time to talk to mom on the phone - too busy too busy.
I did sleep sans any meds last night via meditating. And just plain passing out. I ate a kick ass platelet-building steak dinner last night (so I can do round #2 of chemo next week if I can get my red blood #s up on my own). So steak #2 is on it's way for tonight - thanks to Sis #3.
I had a great day. Got to see Meerkat, Sis #1, and Sis #1's hubster - he's my guy.
I miss my kiddos (my under 5 crowd that I am used to babysitting), and my Zoe, but I know it makes it easier to deal with knowing they are having a great time.
And the hell??? Was I the only one who watched the UT Massacre in progress? Holy crap, when I saw last it was like 66 or something to 14??? Ouch.
Hook 'em.
Your assignment today is to eat some veggies. And to enjoy a sporting event. Be active for me today.

Oh damn. A green feather boa! There's taste, and then there's that comedic taste we keep speaking of. Rock on girl. *snicker* I'm still dyin. I know how much fun you're gonna have with this.
AND! Even before I was told to? I ATE a vegetable! I was craving these little party finger sandwiches my best friend makes out of cucumbers, white bread, and a misture of cream cheese, good seasons Italian dressing mix, and a half a cup of mayo. Those suckas are damn good. And cucumbers TOTALLY count. So veggie fix done.
no steak tho....(bitch)....not that I am bitter, oh no, not me.)
Get down wit ya shiny head self. :-*
How about armadillo legs? They're big ass jalapeno peppers stuffed with cream cheese and sausage and wrapped in bacon and grilled? They're quite good. Surely they have iron sorts of stuff in'em.
Also, Charming Charlies or Sam Moon. Jewelry, scarves, weird stuff, massive accessories. You need to hit that. Harwin is one location. They just plopped one in The Woodlands. It's unfortunate for my bank account.
Your baldness is beauteous. A coworker is going thru chemo now for lymphoma stuff. She looks better in hats and shit than several peeps in their regular work attire. It's all in the carriage, my dear.

i wandered here by way of manolo's shoe blog.
i am one who believes very strongly in the super-fantistic-bald-chick.
i've shaved my hair off twice, just for kicks, and it's a hairstyle i currently miss (i'm growing my hair out to donate to a canadian-locks-of-love-type place, i've got about a year to go before i can chop/shave again).
one thing that i've noticed about it is that groomed/shaped eyebrows really make a difference.
also, chokers look super-hot on a neck attached to a shaved head.
anyway, good luck on your journey and rock that baldness--it looks great on you!
