Oh, life is a glorious cycle of song,
A medley of extemporanea;
And love is a thing that can never go wrong,
And I am Marie of Roumania.

--Dorothy Parker, "Comment"



Yes, it's true, one of the things I use LiveJournal for is a sort of hypertexted, searchable commonplace book. I am tired of getting this little ditty half-stuck in my head, so that I can neither remember it nor stop trying to.



In other news, I want to figure out how to do my hair like Djuna Barnes. Which may be the shallowest reaction to a literary figure I have ever had.

These people make the best tools for hair, ever: http://www.bronzejewelers.com/ The combs work great for twists like that, even with really fine hair (as I believe yours is, yes?) I can totally see that syle working on you. In fact, I think my first reaction to your statement was, "doesn't she wear her hair like that already?"

It never looks that good from the side.
