Fic and Hair Wittering

hobgoblinnBecause composing a live journal entry is a perfectly valid form of procrastination, and creating polls is even more so, I am doing both while taking a break from writing my Epic. Under the cuts, to spare the f-list.
Poll the First: Posting more "In Loco Parentis"
I've got some of the next part of "In Loco" corrected based on beta comments. But neither of my lovely betas (hi,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
research_girl and sahiya) has made it all the way through this much longer section. And because both are wonderfully talented people with Real Lives, they are doing exciting things in exciting places far from home this week. So first I have to decide:
[Poll #1162620]
Poll the Second: hobgoblinn's hair
I wore my hair short as a kid. I didn't start growing it out until college, and it's gotten long several times in the intervening years. I cut it all off when I kicked out my ex (in a pointless but satisfying gesture) and kept it shoulder length for a long while after it grew back out. It's currently about 3/4 of the way down my back, kinda a dark mousy brown with a disturbing number of mousy grey strands starting to make an appearance. I blame Wee Hob for that.
It would be great if I knew how to do anything interesting with my hair, like braid it, or put it up. But I don't, and I haven't the coordination to learn. I usually pull it back in a pony tail, and often wear a ball cap over it as well, when I can't bring myself to take the extra five minutes out of my sleep in the morning for a shower.
In any event, I'm thinking of cutting it radically. But I need others to blame for my bad decisions, which is where you come in:

Date: 2008-03-30 12:11 am (UTC)I'm a bit obsessive when it comes to my hair, because I wash it every morning. It's not greasy, but I just don't like the thought of it not being washed. I would do the same if it were long, and since my hair is very thick and I have enough hair for two people, I don't even want to imagine how long it would take me to dry it if I let it grow.
