The Very Opposite of Hat Hair.

My hair, when straight, is quite suitable for hats (though I think my head is kind of big). However, when I've got the wavy/curly thing going on... it's a bit difficult. When I ventured myself out of the house earlier today to clear off my car and go get coffee (any excuse to get out), I figured a hat and scarf would be appropriate.



I broke out my purple scarf I bought while in India two summers ago and paired it with my AE hat that I think I got back when I was a freshman in high school, or maybe even younger. (complete with fuzzy balls on top!) I really don't wear hats all that often because I've got so much hair that it usually just sticks out from under the hat in a desperate escape attempt, so you'd think the hat was bought this year. Actually I think the most it's ever been worn was the week I got it, around Christmas, and I wore it for practically a week straight, only taking it off to sleep or shower.


My car turned out to be much easier to free... it really just needed a MAJOR dust off because luckily there was no ice involved. It was still a bit of a (freezing) process, but didn't take much effort. After getting coffee I went for a little drive around Bloomington, and I drove down by Griffy Lake. The lake was COMPLETELY frozen over and there were a ton of people out ice fishing on it! I know this is something people around here frequently do in the winter, but I personally don't know if I'd be quite so daring. Haha. The woods were really gorgeous with all the snow though, so it was a really pretty drive!!!


(Ice Fishers!)


Now, my darling roommate Kelly is FINALLY almost home, and we're going to the IU Basketball game against Illinois tonight. My guess is we'll lose, since we're ranked second to last in the Big Ten (Actually 11, and potentially 12 if they add Mizzou! By the way Purdue, sorry for your loss today.... PSYCHE! My cousin IS one of their top players, but I go to IU and that is precisely where my loyalties lie!). Either way, it will be fun to go to a game, since I've really only gone to maybe one since freshman year.

  1. One of my proudest moments for Kent State's basketball team was when they beat IU during March Madness--of course this was like 2001 or something, but still....measly lil' Kent State beat out your team. Sorry to hear they're not doing all that well still.

    Oh, and on my blog, I almost was gonna be like, "soooooo NAME THAT SONG!" and then I was going to follow-it up with a little "shout-out" being like, "ALEX's WONDERLAND, I'm counting on you to get this!!!" Looks like you were on the same wavelength even though I didn't pose it as a "name that song contest". That's amazing that your password to stuff used to actually be that long, and that awesome!
