Review on Jeans

Diane Gilman DG2 jeans.
The material is awesome and the price of these jeans can be reasonable, and a great deal when they are on sale. They have tons of stretch and feel relatively ccomfy right away. They aren't as soft as my seven jeans but they are way cheaper. I got my pair for under 18 bucks.

Diane Gilman also sells regular pants and other clothing too. I have no idea how good the other stuff is.

Also I am in the process of finishing the book Frankenstein. I have to say it is not my favorite book. I find the creator, Frankenstein ( not the monster) to be very irritating. I think he is a bit of a selfish ass and frankly, he is more the monster to me than the actual monster. I had to put the book down because Im so pissed at him.

Unfortunately I cant do much because I can hardly move. Stupd stupid back problem. I guess thats what I get for making a stupid decision. I had a whole bunch of stuff in my arms, Some papers, a chair, a lamp, and two bags. I was rushing and couldnt see the step below me. so I guessed that it was a little closer than it was and ended up tumbling all the way down. i landed on my back and neck. Ouch!I am the biggest klutz ever.

forgot to mention other portion of hair disaster

the fourth hair dye that i used. It did not dye my hair red at all, not even a tint. It did however dye everything else red right on contact. My hands, my neck, my forehead, my clothes, the sink, and toilet etc. It didnt matter that I wiped everything hte moment they were touched. ugh!!! never ever dying my hair again.

It does make me wonder how i managed to get any hint of copper in my hair before.
probably because i bleached my hair before. ugh!

hair ugh

So I have decided I am tired of my black hair and wanted to dye it. Unfortunately I can't dye my hair bright pink or red anymore since I have work. Anyways so I have dyed my hair four times. Yeah thats right four friggin times. First I dyed it dark brown (my hair came out blacker than before.) Second I dyed it a light brown with reddish tints. (my hair color came out black, a little lighter than before.) Third I dyed my hair blond with a brownish red hint. ( my hair is now black. ) Finally I dyed my hair a bright red.
I used splat




I did not use the bleach. I was hoping for a reddish tint to my hair and not to look like the box.
I actually really like the color on the box but, like i said before, i have to work.

Anyways guess what. Nothing!!!!! my hair is now black still. Life is so unfair. I asked George what he thought of my hair. He said, "it looks fine" Do you know why? It is because he can't tell a difference.


At least I got them all at the little discount part of walgreens where they try to get rid of their stuff for a few bucks. I am thinking they put it there because the products don't work. Of course they prolly would on light hair, or if I bleached it.

The only really good news is that my hair is not damaged. I am pretty amazed since I dyed it four times in the past week. In fact I have been complimented on my healthy hair.
I am now giving up on hair dye and using lush henna instead.
Lush caca marron
my server keeps rejecting the picture. It comes in blocks like a candy bar. It apparently smells of grass and coffee. It is natural and actually is said to improve the quality of hair. It wont dye my hair brown or any other color but it will give slight red tint in the sun. If I buy the caca noir, it will dye my hair a tint of blue.

The sad thing is that it is much more expensive than the cheap hair dye. But I figure if it works as a conditioner and the color builds over time (it continues to lighten the hair a few days after you henna it.) it might be worth it. Oh another negative is that it takes hours to do instead of less than half an hour:(

But yeah no more dying hair for me. I give up.
shhhhh dont tell george he still doesnt know

sculptural designs

I love jewelry
I am however, particular about my jewelry. they need to be solid and tend to be either very detailed in the metal work, sculptural and somewhat inspired by nature, or classic.
Robert Lee Morris (RLM) has some of the more sculptural silver designs that I love.
here are some of my favorites







i am so sleepy now.
oh and george bought me a drum set for my vday and birthday gift. I'll post a picture when I finally get it set up. Or rather, when George sets it up.

sick sick sick

I am sick and watching RED right now.
I was browsing earlier and love this solitaire setting. I love unique settings like this. I might put my pink diamond in a setting like this in yellow or rose gold. Im more of a white gold girl but every once in a while I prefer gold.
