I got a haircut today.  Nothing exciting, just a long overdue trim.  But I’m excited because I think my hairdresser fixed the problem I was having where the front of my hair would curl but the back of my hair wouldn’t because whoever cut my hair last time gave me this blunt bob that was [...]

Yay!  It’s snowing a tiny bit and everyone is freaking out! (Not in the city – I haven’t actually seen anything but rain, rain, rain.) (Although, yesterday I was in Silver Lake and I could see snowy mountains in the distance.)
