to hair is human
Jan. 22nd, 2004 02:32 pmFinally. Done. ADR.
Went to the washroom this morning, glanced at myself in the mirror, then did a double take. I had ringlets. Actual curly ring-things on either side of my face. And the more I looked, the more I realized that I've seen them before, but just never actually identified them as ringlets - only as, Damn it, have to find a hair elastic or barette, my hair's sticking out around my face again.
Ringlets. Huh. They're nothing to write home about - not Shirley Temple-esque at all - but I've always described my hair as "straight brown," so in a way this is a kind of hair-based redefinition of myself. Bizarre.
Wonder what other revelations about myself lie languishing for lack of any kind of powers of observation on my part.
