well, i will post a picture when i can upload one. and when i'm sure that this wig is not the most embarrassing thing ever. remember that dolly parton wig i tried on with susie? well, this one feels like a tamed down version of that one. i still feel a bit newscastery. and just so not myself. but. it might have to work for interviews and things.
the actual process of getting the wig shaped was great. the woman at maire rua was so sweet, so helpful. and beforehand, i got to go to my favorite coffee shop - bean there - for a beautifully crafted cup of coffee.
but...i'm still unsure about this wig. it's so not me. i'll have to wait until gretchen gets home to have her honest opinion.
This being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.
A joy, a depression, a meanness,
some momentary awareness comes
As an unexpected visitor.
Welcome and entertain them all!
Even if they're a crowd of sorrows,
who violently sweep your house
empty of its furniture,
still treat each guest honorably.
He may be clearing you out
for some new delight.
The dark thought, the shame, the malice,
meet them at the door laughing,
and invite them in.
Be grateful for whoever comes,
because each has been sent
as a guide from beyond.
-Mewlana Jalaluddin Rumi 1207-1273, written in 1230
