Henry's gotten very into Elmo lately; Elmo's the greatest. I personally don't think Elmo's the greatest. In fact, I may find him just a smidge annoying, just like every other parent of a toddler probably does. The show's only saving grace is Bill Irwin (aka. Mr. Noodles). Sometimes when I'm watching it with Henry, I wonder what it must be like to live in a world composed entirely of crayon scribbles and I've come to the conclusion that it would be insane, and that it's no wonder Elmo is the way he is.

Last week Dave gave me a bob. Sounds kind of dirty, but I'm referring to the hairstyle. I'd been thinking for a few weeks that I needed to get some of the length trimmed off, and was reaching the point of desperation where I was entertaining the thought of going to a hairstylist who hasn't done a very good job in the past, just for the instant gratification. While Dave and I were watching the season finale of Shear Genius, mention was made of the Vidal Sassoon bob, so I asked Dave if he didn't maybe feel like cutting my hair. And since he'd already had two beers in him, he said "Sure!" And he did a great job. I asked him to leave it long in the front and short in the back for the swing factor, and he did. He did such a good job, I'm getting tons of compliments. And you should see the look in women's eyes when I tell them my husband did it. The general consensus is if the whole Chemistry Professor thing doesn't work out, he's got other career options to fall back on.
