All Work...
Aug. 26th, 2004 07:29 pmand no play makes eyesthatslay a very cranky girl. Grrrr. I feel like I've been on a roller coaster ride at work the last few days. People! They keep calling and wanting stuff! The nerve. :P
I've also decided to spend my evenings at home stressing myself out by playing chess on my computer. Let's make something very clear. I should have stuck with Scrabble. I totally suck at chess. The key (I hear) is to think several moves ahead. Pul-eeze. I'm doing good to think about the move at hand. The sneaky computer is so good at setting up the board in anticipation of moves I *might* make. Waaah. So a night of relaxing over a chess board? Not so much. It's more a night of foul language, and clicking the piss out of the "undo last move" button - yet *still* losing. *sigh*
Tomorrow promises to be fun, however. I'm planning on spending the afternoon shopping with my Mom after having lunch at our favorite sushi restaurant. Yum. I'm all about sashimi! Then I have an appointment at the salon to touch up my highlights, and to get a cut. I'm thinking of getting at least 3 inches taken off. Long hair can be such a pain, and I've taken to wearing it in a ponytail more than I wear it down. So it must be time for a change.
Well, I'm off to catch up on my flist, and then I'm sure I'll immerse myself in yet another chess battle. Oh. joy. ;)

b) It is really hot here, and long hair only makes it worse. (plus I'm notoriously hot natured)
I bit the bullet and had 6-7 inches chopped off! Yay!
