Confidential to the former classmate I saw at the conference: I didn't say hello to you the five times I saw you last week because I wasn't sure that was even you. Regardless! The hair threw me - I'm not sure you can rock the shaggy look, but w...

My poor baby

2007-01-06T02:40:12Z

Oh, my poor little Vox blog... I've ignored you so! First there was NaNoWriMo, then there was the first two seasons of Veronica Mars which I got on DVD, and then the holidays kept me from you! I'm back, so let's hug it out!

What's the most drastic change you've ever made to your appearance? Submitted by Laurie. By the time I was 10 years old, I'd never had my hair cut, not even trimmed. I had to wear it in braids all the time because it got tangled and knotted so ...

2006-11-02T05:13:21Z

The Furious Redhead challenged me to somehow work in a mention of "eyelash transplants" somewhere in my story. I'm not to the part where this will be used, but it came to me earlier and I had to write it down: "Cherry Bomb [a drag queen], or La ...

2006-11-02T04:51:25Z

What is your favorite scent? Submitted by Erinen. Gingerbread. I love gingerbread - it says warm cozy house in the winter, and that it's almost Christmas. Fresh bread - my mother always used to make our bread. Store-bought bread was a rare t...

Dear Starbucks...

QotD: It's All In The Stars

2006-10-30T02:01:45Z
