Snapshot: Hello, October

I can't remember September, except to say I have not watched TV or read my celebrity gossip the entire month. There is a stack of 5 on my night stand.
With tears in my eyes, I deleted all recorded episodes of Project Runway knowing I would never watch them and to free up more recording space...to record more things I will never watch.

I've chosen sleep, working out, and hanging out with Alex (and the occasional blog post) as the "free time" activities I can fill the rest of the day around work.

*Whine, whine, whine about my self-inflicted busy, scheduled life.

Most importantly, study the picture above carefully. Picture day was coming up and I panicked. I had the choice of having him look like a girl with his bangs way below his eyes (like last year), taking him to a random fast place (the day before pictures) to get a terrible haircut, or try to trim his bangs myself. As he whipped his hair back and forth (he whipped his hair back and forth) I tried to not stab him in the eye with scissors more than cut evenly.
Someone asked, "Why didn't you YouTube it?!"

Well, I wish they would have brought that to my attention...yesterday! (that yesterday, not actual yesterday).

Two years of school pictures, two years of terrible hair.
1st year: girl
2nd year: Chinese gymnast...still girl.
