Vanquished Red Head - Impolite Library Patron

So after just over a year as a spicy red head, I have returned literally and figuratively to my roots. Courtesy of the Funky Toque, the outrageously francophone salon I go to (in 2 trips I have had 3 people deal with me who "don't really speak good English"), I am once again a brunette. This decision was made initially on a strictly pragmatic basis - it is too time consuming and costly to maintain the fire engine shade of rouge that I liked best, and my inexplicable inability to book a hair appointment before my style has irritated me to the brink of a sanatorium trip left me often times looking like a ragged carrot. Ragged. Carrot. Let the image wash over you. I am a poet.

However, I am taking the opportunity to cue in a more metaphysical change. Because, with no philosophy in my life, I miss metaphysics.

Perhaps I will post a picture of this revolution inspiring hair-do when I am not sitting in the McLellan library not working on my 6'000 word paper. I have one week to write this paper which is, in case I have not already wined about this, based on a 947 page novel which I am 440 pages into. My previous hope that I would be able to write my paper without completing the mammoth tome has been quashed by reviews remarking at the incredible turn the novel takes at its mid-point. Great news.

It would have been far more appropriate if I had posted this prior to  procrastinating in the library, but here is my comprehensive list of bad habits which I hope to expunge alongside my ginger coif:

A propensity to avoid yoga

My tolerance for dishevelled living arrangements

An inability to reply promptly to a facebook message or wallpost, e-mail, or phone call

Putting off necessary chores - grocery shopping, filling prescriptions, getting laundry appropriate coinage from HSBC...

Binge drinking 

Binge eating

Leaving school work to the last minute

Procrastinating

Not answering on Skype

Leaving my cupboards open

Using my cat to kill spiders with which I have made inconvenient peace treatie

Talking myself out of working at the library

Bringing my laptop to bed with me - in the non sexy, playing sporcle to 2 am way

Playing sporcle until 2 am
