Just give me a shovel
Fuck wearing purple. When I am an old woman, I want to be as badass as this gal. I saw this on ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)

auroraceleste's LJ, so the story is making the rounds. I'm glad.
Please, though, whatever you do, don't follow the cookie crumbs to the original source. Well, unless you want your opinion of humanity to resume its usual lower-than-low standard. The NYDaily News site has the story, yes, but the photo they use is of the husband with his wounds in the foreground, and the hero wife all tiny and out of focus in the background. Fuck You, story and photo editor dickwads. Just fuck you.
I received a fantastic compliment yesterday. One of the grad students (who hasn't been in the offices for a while), stopped by my office and commented on how long my hair has grown. She asked how I got the waves in it, if that was a perm or if I styled it every morning. "Oh, that's just how it grows," I answered. "I'm lucky." I didn't tell her that I hadn't done more than finger comb it that morning and I'm pretty sure I haven't washed it since Saturday. "Girl," she said, "that is amazing. You've got some Kardashian hair going on."
So while I'm still dealing with a lot of physical health bullshit, I take no small comfort in the fact that my hair looks killer. Thank you,nottygypsy!
Instead of dancing around the living room last night, I did some serious punching time sincemckitterick left the bag up for me. I think it might've been the longest punching session I've had. By the end, I couldn't even raise my arms above my head. It was good.

Huh. It would have never in a million years have occurred to me that someone could have objected to that picture. Especially not with so many fuck yous!! If I were the lady, that's totally the picture I would have picked to use because I live in alaska and shoot fucking bears as a matter of lifestyle and LOOK AT THAT GIANT GASH ON MY BELOVED'S HEAD!!111!!! It would have totally, for me, been about showing the trauma to Jim and not a picture all about me. But, I suppose if I were inclined to feel it should be all about me, I likely would not be the sort to attempt to save my dog from a moose in the first place. But, without a doubt given the two photos -- the one in your link and the one in the nydailynews story -- I would have hands down picked the one showing my husband's total frankenstein head and not the one of him looking just fine in the background.
::shrugs::
Different perspectives, I guess! :)
ETA: I refrained from mentioning the other day that I once again had my instinctive urge to poke your eyes out and steal your hair, when seeing one of your icons.
Also eta that I saw that moose story yesterday all over fb, so it is making the rounds, yes!

If you're looking at it from the perspective of Ms. Taylor, maybe that is indeed the photo she would have preferred. But I'm looking at it from the perspective of someone who is tired of the woman being in the (literal) background. Especially when she is the subject of the story. Grrrrr.
ETA: NGL, I do love my hair. Thanks for the kinda-sorta compliment. =D
Re: not so majestic actually...
No realli! She was Karving her initials on the møøse with the sharpened end of an interspace tøøthbrush given her by Svenge - her brother-in-law - an Oslo dentist and star of many Norwegian møvies: "The Høt Hands of an Oslo Dentist," "Fillings of Passion," "The Huge Mølars of Horst Nordfink."
Mynd you, møøse bites Kan be pretty nasti.

Everytime I look at your hair, I want to grow mine out again, but then I remember that mine neither falls in pretty waves nor ringlets anymore.

On that note, I want my hair styled again, because how f'in hot would you and I look in a

Oh, and speaking of that, I really need some help figuring out how to do tumblr. (big-eyed pretty please?)
no subject
I am not the person to ask about figuring out Tumblr. I stumble around like a crazy drunk person on that site and anything I get right I've probably figured out by accident. If you have a specific question about something though, I might be able to help you learn via my own mistakes. =D

Oh yes.. you got to it before I could edit my nimble-fingered but slow computer fuck-up.
Mostly, on Tumblr, do you set up an entire post?tumblr? first and then post the link to it?
no subject
So the URL for this week's heart theme was: http://clevermanka.tumblr.com/day/2012/01/23
But technically, those are all separate posts. It's weird.
no subject
Oh, I see now.
So you just do a search for whatever you're looking for and then "re-blog" them to your own tumblr?
Do you also upload pix from your own drive that you've saved from elsewhere? Or is it limited to what's already on tumblr? (I wouldn't think so, but I'm assuming stupidly here)
Questions, questions...
