Current favorites and things I could do without right now

Favorites:

1) First-year orientation. It is great to be a part of welcoming all these new students to campus! (And it gives me something to do 4 days a week!)
2) Rita's Ice. See previous post about that one. Yum!
3) Preparing to move in 2 weeks! I cannot wait to be out of our current apartment and into the house we are renting!
4) Carrboro Farmer's Market. They had blueberries, blackberries, and corn last week. Where I come from, those are August foods!
5) Summer talent shows: SYTYCD, America's Got Talent, Top Chef Masters


Things I could do without:

1) Mosquitoes. I cannot even eat lunch outside without becoming lunch for these pests! And these are much more fierce than Ohio mosquitoes... the bites swell even bigger than I am used to.
2) Slow weeks at work.
3) My lack of hairstyle. My hair ends up in a ponytail or messy bun almost every day. This has got to change!
4) My apartment complex. It is time for this relationship to be over. Too bad they have ridiculous policies and we can't end our lease 8 days early!
5) Really hot, humid weather.

Haircut?

So, I saw "Night at the Museum 2: Battle at the Smithsonian" over the weekend, which was pretty great. Some good laughs. But what I was totally smitten with was Amy Adams' Amelia Earhart hair cut!



I have been considering a shorter cut for a while and her hair thickness and texture seem to be sort of the same as mine. It may take a little more finger-styling and frizz-control than I am used to, but this may be a good start for talking with a stylist about what I want.

Any thoughts from the peanut gallery?
