more fun
By Danica on July 16th, 2008We had a busy weekend full of Potsdam Festival, cousins coming to play all day, a shortage of naps, and evenings with just two special boys.
(After their bath, enjoying marshmallows and a viewing of Lawrence Welk — the Saturday evening tradition growing up, which I was happy to introduce to Merrick and my little man.)
And yesterday, both Carina and I finally got up the nerve (fueled by boredom on my part) to really cut my hair. Of course, anyone who knew me when I was 15 knows this isn’t that short, but it will do for now. After growing my hair out for three years, living through awkward afro stages and generally looking like a total hippie, I’ve been hesitant to do much more than trim it. But you know, you gotta live a little. I’m sure someday I’ll want to grow it all back out, but I’ll cross those awkward afro bridges when I get there. :)
So, whose blog is this, anyway? It's mine, and here are few tidbits about me: My name is Danica. Like the race car driver, whose name I know, but whose career I know nothing about. A Nascar fan I am not. Things like reading, playing piano, gardening, cooking, sewing, writing, and keeping my bathroom bleached are more up my alley. 
i love it! love it!

Being a total fan of your hair I gulped before clicking the link. But I must say, WOW! It does look great! FUN! And totally perfect for your face/head. We need more Carinas to disperse throughout the world for giving fine, appropriate haircuts and styles! So, can you mail me a lock of your beautiful red curls? I’m serious! DEAD SERIOUS!

I love love love your hair! That Carina! She ought to use your pic as an ad in her shop! I WANT MY HAIR CUT!! Just like that. Only I have Diane hair, not Danica hair :-( But I still might give it a shot anyhow. Yea, the cool, the clean, the free, the fresh!
So, stop and show me in person!!!
