The What Are You Doing Thread #8

[Deloria]

- Being a bit sad, I really don't want to cut my hair but I am seriously thinking I may seriously have to (health stuff). See, if we had the chat going you'd know why lol

Health stuff!?

I believe this is one of those "If she wants to tell us, she'll tell us" moments they teach us about in the art of conversation classes at the charm school I wish I attended.

Delling is invited to the chat but he hasn't posted or maybe he doesn't wanna go? D:

And why on earth must you cut your hair Delling?

Delling wasn't sure if he was invited or not... *will post now* (though I'm in Europe too, so my situation is similar to Deloria's )

And why on earth must you cut your hair Delling?

Well, there are a few factors: 1--I said I would donate it and 2--I've been thinking it should be trimmed to be even (first time growing it out... so bits in the front are short and stuff... basically, it also needs maintenance) ((and then there's 3--my mother hates my having long hair ))

[Say]

Technically, you don't have a situation forcing you to do so, then? (your mother isn't forcing you unless she's ACTUALLY chasing you down the street with scissors...)

I have heard of situations like these from my students before (medical field mostly), that's why I asked because sometimes there is great prejudice when it comes to things such as long hair, even baldness, or tattooes. I think it's unfair to judge someone like that.

If it's something you want to do, based on the fact you would love to donate it and whatnot then I think it's adorable. doesn't make it less difficult to get rid of it tho

She used to be all "we're going out for dinner! " ...and then we'd stop at a hair salon.

Yeah, it does happen. ... fortunately, I'm mostly in academia and it's less of an issue here.

Yeah, that's how I feel about donating it! That's it. I think it'd be a really cool/good thing to do... but I know I'm going to miss it.

- Second guessing my choices. Not feeling very well right now.

[GrahamRocks!]

- Writing again on chapter 3 of QFG1 at last. Should I end off here?

Sir Cray should know what I'm talking about: should I stop after the conversation with Karl? or should I continue on after that? I did write a little scene after that conversation, where Marcus decides he wants to be a Paladin (it IS a step up from being just a Hero, isn't it?) and Rico asks what's on his mind.

Your call, Sir Cray. I'll go with either.

Or... should I skip ahead a few hours? I don't really think you can do much on your first day in Spielburg Valley aside from grind, free the fox, buy stuff in town and explore the valley a bit before night comes.

- Listening to Conquests of Camelot music (Digital) the "Ship to Gaza" music sounds familiar somehow... maybe it's just me.

He's not a teacher, he's a grad student. And I suspect it's not that kind of grading.

[Haids1987]

But isn't he a teacher's aide...? **Is suddenly plunged into the depths of confusion***
