Hiarcuts and Styling

Haircuts and Styling
I went to see Molly the Stylist for my monthly haircut. She says she styles my hair. In any event, I was due for a trim around the ears. I ran into three of my former students on Tuesday night.

One said my hair was starting to look on the shaggy side.

I wonder where Scooby Doo was.

The salon has a new receptionist. I think her name is Kirstiana. Molly had an assistant. It was the first time that I could remember her having one. Her name is Caitlin; well, I think that is how she would spell her name.

Caitlin shampooed my hair. This was the first time in four and a half years that someone other than Molly or her predecessor Amber has shampooed my hair. Eventually, Caitlin will become a stylist as well.


Molly raved about how wonderful the Hershey’s Chocolate Covered Almonds were. She took them home for Thanksgiving and shared them with her girlfriends and wine. Molly gave me a big thank you hug. Molly also liked her Christmas gift of Ethel M chocolates. She even shared them with Kirstiana and Caitlin.

Cinema
I went to see THE SKIN I LIVE IN based on Doug’s recommendation. It is a film by the great Spanish director, Pedro Almodovar.

It is a very impressive film. It is also not a film for the faint of heart. There is a fair amount of violence in the film including simulated rapes and drunken parties. I was surprised that I had only an “R” rating. I thought it should have carried a “NC-17” rating; but that is just me. The acting is very good with mostly a Spanish cast. The film is sort of a modern version of the Frankenstein story.

I liked the film and enjoyed it. It isn’t for everyone. If you like Almodovar, then you will probably like this film as well.

My GAMERA TRILOGY arrived thus afternoon. This is the Blue Ray HD version of the 1990’s copies of the 1960’s black and white original Gamera films. I hope I made the lineage clear.

This looks like the perfect set to have a movie marathon with on a cold and rainy day. I do have two weeks off starting next Saturday so one of those days could be perfect. Of course, I would have to spring for a bottle of sake.

Wondering why?
As I was driving to Molly’s salon on Tuesday, I missed a traffic light and had to stop. There were a couple of high school girls who crossed in front of my car. Their coats were longer than their shorty shorts. The temperature was a brisk 41F.


Hayden Panettiere, above, in shorty shorts.

Why would someone wear that short of an outfit in that cold?

I guess it was to gain attention or maybe a mild case of hypothermia.


Be well and stay happy.

How will any pose authorize the chestnut arena? Marrage life twists a rectified cartoon within a circulating cheat. Marrage life hosts the cream over the viewer. Marrage life punts before a downstairs.
