It's Time for Change…for My Hair ; )

I'm bored out of my skull with my hair. Not only that, I seem to have lost some hair due to stress. This hair loss began when my father was in ICU due the pulmonary embolism and pneumonia, then it subsided. It started up again when the oncologist said the cancer spread to his hip and liver, and my Dad began chemo and radiation again, heavily. My father and I both have blonde hair, and I inherited his thin, baby-like hair, so mine easily breaks and stress makes my hair just seem to thin. It'll come back, but for now, I think it's time for a change. I can't have the long locks I'm used to. I think I'll do something radical. Something more colorful as well.

I use vegetable hair dye. So many colors. So little time! I'm also not sure if I should even keep any blonde showing at all. It'd be the first time ever. I don't know if I can do it. I was thinking of black, purple and hot pink or vampire red. If I have bangs, they would be black. I might have to get bangs, depending on the strength of my hair and the ends. If not, then I have more flexibility in the front. I'm also stumped about the front and back. I know the back has to be short, but possibly the front can be kept long with a modified A-line. 

I'm so confused and overwhelmed, just by a silly hair dilemma.

Read a sampling of over 1,000 letters kids sent in to The Daily News to president-elect Barack Obama. Children are so concerned about things many people take advantage of or don't even think about, and when adults do voice their concerns about these issues, we're called "tree-hugging hippies" and "crazy cat ladies." Take a look through the eyes of the children. (NYDAILYNEWS.COM)

Obama inauguration a recruiting tool for hate groups

Many racist Web sites had clocks apocalyptically counting down to Obama's inauguration. One had a picture of a tombstone that read: "United States of America; Born: July 4, 1776; Died: Nov. 4, 2008; Suicide." Several sites encouraged members to wear black armbands on Inauguration Day.

Obama and the Cigs: WHO CARES.

Will Obama Set Off White House Smoke Detectors?

During today's Meet the Press, Tom Brokaw noted President-elect Obama's recent admission that he slipped up a few times during the campaign and returned to his smoking habit. He then asked Obama if this would be a problem, considering the White House's no-smoking policy. "I have, but what I said was that at times I have fallen off the wagon." Brokaw then interjected, "But wait, that means you haven't stopped." To which Obama replied, "Fair enough. Well then, what I would say is that I have done a terrific job under the circumstances of making myself healthier and you will not see any violations of these in the White House." Could we be looking at the "no new taxes" promise that will haunt him in 2012? In 2007, a Fox News story revealed what they called "Obama's dirty little secret" and asked viewers, "Would you vote for a smoker for president?"

The REAL Question: Do we actually give a flying fuck? I know I don't. With all the "violations" we've put up with for all these years, I think a cig now and then, with all the pressure Mr. Obama has taking over this mess he's been left, is pretty petty stuff compared to the outrageous lies and scams we've been dished. At least he is trying to not smoke, and he is being public about it. We've had many presidents in the past who smoked; back then smoking was not considered dangerous, but manly. If I were in his shoes, taking over the mess that's being left for his to clean up, I'd be doing a lot more than smoking the occasional cigarette. I'd be scoring some hardcore goodies, you understand? ;) Give the man a break.
