In A Funk

So in case you haven't noticed from the lack of posting, I've been in a bit of a funk lately. I can't even tell you when it started or why, but I've just felt. . .meh. . .lately. Maybe it's because it's almost my birthday and I've never really grown up about the idea of being spoiled rotten on my birthday. And CB's family has never been all that into big celebrations, so it's impossible to try and get the point through to him. But he did actually buy me a present this year, so maybe there's hope yet. He and Diva went to the store and picked out some delicious smelling Yankee candles. Then he found two candle holders. One says "Our Love is" and the other one says "Everlasting". Sweet, right?

Then GlamorousMom stopped by last Thursday and brought me this:
This? just might be the thing to break me out of my funk. It's fabulous! Mom also gave me some cappucino mix, so I've been doctoring it up with peppermint hershey's kisses and caramel creamer. Delicious! There's a whole section on their website dedicated to recipies for the thing. And I figure it'll be money saving too. Because I won't be fitting off to the coffee shop every time I want a coffee!

So, after I got that, I started feeling a little better. Then I woke up yesterday morning to see that my yard is no longer icky dead grass, but it's covered with glittery fresh snow! CJ didn't understand why I was so excited that it had finally snowed until I explained to him that I would take pretty snow over icky dead grass every day of the week.

Then I woke up this morning frustrated and all "woe is me". And I learned that today is supposedly the most depressing day of the year. So that shook me out of it a little bit, because I'm never one to go along with the norm.

It all changed, though, when I saw the video for Dierk's new song and saw that he CUT HIS DAMN HAIR! CB had called me and said that some DJ on the radio was whining about it, so I had a little warning. But I saw the video today and there is nothing there! No more curls! Just scruff. "Maybe he got tired of his wife nagging him to grow it out so he just buzzed it all off" was the sympathy I got from CB. "Shut up and don't even think of going near any scissors, dude." was my response to him. I've never really liked "long" hair, but I like to have something to run my fingers through, you know? And CB has gloriously thick, unbelievably soft hair when he lets it grow out. Sadly, he's usually got it cut like he just came home from boot camp. But since we have this theme party to go to in February, he's been growing it out. The theme this year is "Back to the 50's", so he's made it his mission to become Johnny Cash. Which is fine, because I love the whole "bad boy" motif he's got going on. It's freaking hot. But, he just informed me that the Saturday after the party, he's going to shave it all off again.

So, question of the day, ladies. What do you like on a man for a hairstyle? Short? Medium? Freakish 80's hairband long?
