Which Goddess lurks in your soul? Athena You are a wise one, my dear! Athena is the Greek Goddess of wisdom, disciplined war, philosophy and knowledge. She is a selective Goddess, as she only inhabits those of your high intelligence and keenness to learn great things. You’re usually not seen without a book in your hand or your eyes glued to the internet (which is, after all, the great information highway!). This should not suggest that you don’t enjoy people, as your cleverness and sharp wit are usually in full force when in a social situation, to everyone’s delight. Click Here to Take This Quiz

I've been thinking about getting my eyebrow pierced. No, really, I have. I'm of the opinion that it would look good on me. Of course, I'm also of the opinion that I should Shai to help me bleach out my hair and then dye it purple. I've also been yearning for another tattoo forever. I think I'm a lot more of a punk rock kid than I've ever really let on before. And I know for a long time, I stayed to keeping "normal" hair colors and not piercing all the way up my ear and not getting more tattoos because I didn't want my grandparents to be disappointed in me. But, see, they're no longer around for me to worry about that so much, and my parents have never been that disapproving of things of that nature seeing as how they were both hippies. It's not even like my work would probably care that much (well, I may need to get back to the HSI side before doing some of the more drastic things) seeing as how one of my supervisors has tattoos on his arms, behind his ears, his finger (I don't want to know where else) has the ear plugs and a dyed black mohawk. I think I'm in the clear there.

My hair needs cut and colored. The coloring, I can do as I'm thinking of making it all the dark brown of the under layer. I feel in the mood for dark color. As for a cut, I want more layers, something piecey. Maybe even with some slanted bangs. I haven't had bangs in ages. We'll see. We'll see.

After these last two weeks, I may just stay at the apartment all weekend and hide. I could probably manage to dye my hair, though. That could be doable.

New hair!

Yesterday I had a headache all day. I woke up with it; I went to bed with it. There were perhaps a few hours reprieve broken up in a smattering of minutes over the course of the day from 10am until 1am. It was a horrible, horrible thing, especially seeing as we were in queue at work all day as well. For no apparent reason. And, gosh, that's always what pisses me off the most.

I'm torn between coloring my hair really radical colors (black and fire engine red) or holding off and trying to get a new job first.

Working my way back to mostly human very slowly this morning.

Work has been...well, there are times I simply want to set Verizon on fire. Seems like nothing we have to do through them ever works right, and then the customer blames us. Right. Sure. Gah. Not going into it because it'll just put me in a bad mood. Needless to say, after these two weeks I will so deserve randomly punk colored hair.

Poke me if I missed something.

Yesterday timberwolfblues and I went to the mall because I needed to buy my mother something for Mother's Day. After I purchased two tops for her, which I hope she likes because I think they'd be glorious on her, I wandered around trying to locate the boy, who bowed out of helping me clothes shop thankfully. Finally located him in Razzmatazz, which is a weird hippie t-shirt, punk store. Think Hot Topic meets, um, the 60s and you're pretty much there.

Anyway, this is getting boring. Hell, I'm boring myself, and I know where I'm going with this. Ceasing rambling, I was looking at their hair color. Not normal hair color by any means but the day-glo orange, yellow, red and then a big selection of blues, purples and darker reds. I love hair color. To death. With a burning passion. I love it. My hair was dyed almost continually throughout my high school years and then sporadically in college. But it was always fairly normal. Well, a couple of times the dark burgundy turned my hair purple but I was always going for a shade found somewhere in nature despite my silent desire to dye all my hair bring yellow with orange bangs, a dream that never came true because I'd have to bleach like whoa.

But I find myself thinking not about anything permanent but about maybe something semi-permanent. Likes red again. Red red. My So-Called Life red, which was the whole reason I actually started dying my hair in the first place. How lame does that make me? At the length my hair is now I'd need two boxes. Or maybe just one of those little bottle things from Razzmatazz.The trouble with the semi-permanents is that they rarely have the kind of colors I want. I want bright, rich red. Which is hard to get from my medium brown hair without lightening.

Ponder, ponder. Maybe I'll go to the drugstore after work and look around. I could do with a beer restocking anyway. Not that I need to spend the money, but I kinda miss the color. I've got some pretty fantastic natural highlights (in both red and blond), and I'm happier with my natural hair color now than I've been in a long while, but I kinda miss the look of something else. But I don't want it until I have to grow it out and hack it off or something. Which is why I'm thinking semi-permanent. Oh well. We'll see what happens.
