A few thoughts on my upcoming July events, and some other stuff:
Last night--went for glass of milk at 2 AM, reached for a light switch, knocked over a glass bottle. It spooked me, and I stumbled back, slicing the back of my foot/ankle. Nice little gash, decent amount of blood, but no harm done. Just another fun gash to make me look tough-ish.
Haircut in the morning. Think I'll basically just buzz it all, go Army-style for my upcoming country road trekking. Also considering shaving the facial hair, too. And I'm pretty certain I'll shave my legs, at some point before Wednesday, also. Hey, it'll help with resistance, and the heat--leave me alone.
Poll questions: 1. Should I let my hair (and facial hair) then grow out all month?
Might get hot, but could be interesting. Doubt I would, but just a thought. A month wouldn't be too bad on my hair. This pic was awhile back--about 2 months worth of growing--probably the longest it's ever been...I'm about a week shy of this look now. HA!
BREAKING NEWS: While texting with a very cool friend of mine just now (who happens to be a gorgeous model, and probably knows a thing or 2 about fashion), she suggested I try a faux hawk, which I've considered before, anyway, so that's a serious thought now...
The facial hair, though, is a different story. My record is 8 days, and would be much tougher to keep going--especially while running in the eat. Here are 2 separate ones of me on the last day of each of my two 8-day stints...
2. Should I post updates on my weight: every day, once a week, only at the begging/middle/end of the month, or what? I'm thinking of keeping my own records each day, but only posting it once a week (Sundays, for example) as of right now. Just a preemptive thought...
Other running thoughts:
If I reach 300 miles before the final day of July (would be nice), I will keep running. If I miraculously hit 300 on, say, the 26th, I won't just call it quits. 300 is the minimum... "I am Spartaaa..." -- crap, sorry, had a vision there for a second...oops :)
Back again soon. Tell your friends.
D, out.
No faux hawk! No no no! That is for metros! You're too cool for a faux hawk... don't do it to yourself! And spare those around you... :)
ReplyDeletePS - Post your weight changes on a weekly basis, because weight fluctuates too much for a daily update to be accurate. I will be keeping track of my weight every Monday. Just go w/ your start date and go from there!!
Thank ya, Brit! I still may go with the faux hawk, knowing that few people will see me during the month, anyway. Lol. I dunno, we'll see! ;) ...besides, some might argue I have some metro tendencies, anyway. Ha ha!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the thoughts on the weight stuff. Very good point, chica.
A decent amount of blood...but no harm done??
ReplyDeleteokay lol..
I personally am a faux hawk fan and think you should give a shot. You could always comb it diffent. I also believe that you should smile more... you have great teeth :D
Lol well thank you, Matti! :) I DID give it a shot, and I'm not hating it so far. When flattened down, it's not THAT noticeable, I don't think.
ReplyDeleteAnd sadly, I actually have terrible teeth (stupid braces didn't work very well in M.S.), which is why I don't smile more, honestly...that angle is very deceptive, trust me. LOL! Still, thanks. :)
Well if you would smile more.. maybe.. just maybe I would have known this ;)
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome, D!
But I don't WANT people to know this...lol. The power of deception, my friend! ;) haha
