      Good choice! I thought she would go fast.

        Since she looks like me if I haven’t had the time to straighten my hair after I shower, I figured it was the only choice. That and nyahaha I snagged Coraline *giggle*

          Heh.

          My niece, who has naturally straight hair, straightens her hair because it’s not straight enough. I’ve always wanted curly hair. I guess it’s a fashion thing.

            If you’re like me and have wavy hair that tends to poof out, a straightener can be a godsend. It not only straightens your hair but smooths out frizz and, dependent upon whether or not you have a “nice” straightener, will make your hair look silkier as well. I tend to look less like a teenager (I know, I know, looking sixteen when you’re a decade past it is a godsend, really, but it doesn’t help make a good impression on a CEO, lol) and more like an adult when I straighten my hair. Technically, if you have a skinny straightener and know how to manipulate it, you can create curls in your hair…but I’ve got a big wide one and have never tried *that*. :)

            I have hair that can go either way, which is very lucky. The challenge is making either state look intentional.

            Ain’t that the truth. Ah, “fashion”.

    I’m SO glad you uploaded new Avatars. The old one was a frumpy victorian chick dressed all in black. Depressing.

    Now I’m THIS…

      Ah… But you used to be Mary Anning, the world’s first professional fossilist.

    Aw! Maren will be so disappointed in me. She’s very INto Dinosaurs right now.

      When she starts commenting, then she can pick Mary Anning. Who knows, by that time I might have uploaded more dinosaurs.
