Just tuning in?

Just to clear up any confusion, to those friends and relatives who recently received our holiday letter and decided to check out my blog --

You're in the right place. You, however, may note that I am, from time to time, somewhat of a, hmmm, how best to put it...

Highly feminist-ey, radical liberal, and unashamedly committed to a world where everyone hugs, holds hands, sings kum-ba-yah, gets married to whomever they want, and has control of their own minds and bodies. And I'm also not kidding when I say I may adopt the maple leaf and sing Oh Canada if the election doesn't go my way come November.

I realized this might be a little shocking to some of you (or maybe not so much, as I've also occasionally been known to be an opinionated big mouth). I'm not apologizing for anything. If you don't agree, we could duke it out.

Or we could just continue to talk about the weather. How about we do that. It's 4 degrees outside right now. Brrr. And you?

I have a dream that some day people will be able to marry whoever they want. That's why I keep Scarlett Johansson's phone number handy.

Because one supermodel wife isn't enough, eh?

I hope L has Brad Pitt on speed dial, too.

Hair

This has become the age-old question...Why do men hate short hair on women? I've been thinking about this a lot because my current style, an angled bob, requires a bunch of fussing every morning to get it to do anything. My favorite haircut of all time, as far as ease of care, was my pixie cut. I loved that I could wash it, gel it, and be done. No blow drying or flattening or curling. Just gel and go. Very sporty. I thought it looked cute. My husband has another opinion. The longer the better is his motto. Thing is, my hair becomes an unruly, tangled, nappy mop when it gets long. If I had all the time in the world and Jennifer Aniston's budget, I'd be more than happy to grow it long and have others style it every day. In real life, I guess I'd rather go for comfort and convenience. And if you ask me, I think the pixie is dang cute. I suspect heterosexual men aren't hot on short hair, in general, because it's too much like their own hair. No matter how much jewel

Ho, Ho, Ho, How Many Times Can I Use "I'm too busy" as an Excuse?

I haven't had time to write. Work, swim meet volunteering, holiday decorating and shopping. But truthfully, I've not been in much of a mood to write anything anyway. Last night we put up the tree and Santa chachkies, and I drank my first egg nog of the season, so perhaps I'll be in a cheerier mood. Also, I have spent some time writing the annual Schoon holiday newsletter. If you happen to get a copy, treat it like a drinking game. Every time I make you roll your eyes, take a drink. Nog, wassail, Everclear. Whatever gets you through. One sure way to assist with merriment motivation is listening to Christmas carols. I'm not going to get into a debate over what truly constitutes a carol. You can "Jesus is the reason for the season" yourself until you turn blue; I generally lean toward the secular end of the holiday tune spectrum. And if you just gasped at my use of holiday instead of Christmas, go suck on a candy cane. It's my blog and my opinions. Deal.
