New Friends
And another new haircut…. I wrote Alan and sent him a picture of my newest haircut (see below, the hair stylist talked me into getting it even shorter). I hope he likes it!
This is the message I sent:

Dear Alan, I hope you are doing well and not too busy. Remember to relax too! I did a lot yesterday. I worked in the morning at the studios. Then I met with a friend of Jane’s to help with an international video festival they’ve been organizing. She made a nice lunch and then we munched on chocolate while I did data entry and she downloaded videos. We chatted about family and stuff. She was very open and nice. As we talked, I realized it’s the first real conversation I’ve had since I got here. Except for talking on the phone with my family, that is. My mom, dad and brother been calling a lot which is nice, cause otherwise I’d be lonely! Then Jane’s friend dropped me off at my hair appointment. The hair stylist, Jess, was super nice. She updated my color and talked me into cutting off more dead ends… I was a little afraid that it would be too short. But I really like it, and she said it looks sexy. I attached a picture! While she worked, we just talked and talked. Really, she was so nice and then she invited me to go out and hear a band! I said, “Really? I love to go. I haven’t done anything fun since I got here.” So we got some food and then went to hear the band. The first band was great, kinda a mix between Neil Young and Ween. We didn’t stay too long, which was fine with me. I’m not a super late night person. But the main reason was that her ankle was bothering her because she’d twisted it a few days before. Her sister picked her up and I rode Jane’s bike home in the dark, but it has alight. And in a way, riding at night is easier than the day because there were almost no cars and you can’t see the run down yards/houses… I really need to get a car. Actually, Jess suggested I get a scooter instead. That’s a thought! Do you have a car? What kind of music do you like? What are you working on? -Delia |
I think I’ll go check out the gym today. I need to lose a few pounds…
Oh, and I’m looking into getting collagen for my lips. They are so thin and wrinkly. I’m starting to get those Cruela Deville lines when I wear red lipstick… I’m going to call on Monday. A friend of Jane’s recommended a plastic surgeon, but also sent me this link: http://www.alternet.org/healthwellness/78539
But collagen is temporary and safe, right?

I’m far from a pro when it comes to collagen, but my understanding that the first thing you should do is make sure you are not allergic to collagen (this should be done a full month in advance) — as allergic reactions aren’t uncommon, the worst being possible complications to your immune system. Using the best (reliable/respected) possible doctor is also important as disease can (though rarely) be carried in the collagen strands.
And yes, collagen is temporary. It varies from person to person, but it should last between 2 and 3 months.
