The Mock Dock

I should seriously be hired as a spokesperson for PajamaJeans.  They arrived waaaaaaaaaaaay earlier than anticipated, which is already a bonus, but I just ripped open the package just now, and put them on, and they are FABULOUS.

AND, they totally look like nice jeans.  You probably couldn’t get away with wearing them with something tucked in, because there are no Actual Buttons or Zippers on them.  There’s just stitching that sort of looks like buttons and zippers.   But you could EASILY wear them with a cute top that hangs over the waistband, with a fabulous pair of shoes, and no one would ever guess in a million years that they are basically sweatpants.

Now – I personally think they fit/feel more like yoga pants than pajama pants, because, at least on me, they are snug-fitting.  I suppose I could have ordered a large or something and they’d be loose, but I got a medium, and they fit like yoga pants.

I LOVE THEM.  If I could wear them every single day, I totally would.  I intend to wear them to work tomorrow.  YAY!

Thanks to the alert and astute mockdocker who sent me this – the perfect follow up to this post.

An alert and astute mockdocker sent me this video, and while I could almost understand someone making a video of themselves to see what they look like trying to dance, I do NOT understand actually POSTING said video for the world to see, particularly when it looks like THIS.

Eeew.

Sorry for the non-postiness yesterday, mockdockers.  Before I knew it, the afternoon was gone and we had company last night so there just wasn’t time to hang out with you guys here.

One of the folks we had over is a policewoman, who shall henceforth be known as CopGirl and she is a total badass.  She had some great stories, including one about a female detainee who removed and then hurled a tampon at her.  Yeah.

CopGirl is a tiny thing, probably no more than 110 pounds, but you just know when you meet her that she could beat the pulp out of you if she wanted to.  It’s all about the attitude.  And it’s not that she’s mean – she’s like the nicest, sweetest person ever.  She just has this total ass-kicking aura about her.

We talked some about what absolute BS it is that cops are ever allowed to be landbeasts.  I mean, it’s not safe.  They’re required to take a physical fitness test to BECOME cops, and the academy for training is tough physically as well.  But after that?  Many departments have basically no rules for maintaining fitness.

Let me ask you, would you feel safe if one of these cops were on the scene to protect you?

Those two probably can’t run to the refrigerator, let alone after a criminal.

GAWD.

Lindsay Lohan’s a hoarder. Huh.

She’s also a user of lip collagen, I believe.

This weather man is by far the biggest spaz about weather who ever existed EVER. But I love how much of a spaz he is. I mean think about it – how BORING must reporting on weather be? It’s not like you ever have anything new and exciting happening in weather in Baltimore. You pretty much have rain or sun or snow. So who can blame the guy for flipping the freak out about a BIG snow?

I love him. LOVE.

Mockdockers – I need your professional opinions.

I just tried a hair coloring product – Loreal’s Excellence 10 minute thingy to be almost exact.  If you’ve seen pictures of me, which you may have if you’ve been around here awhile, you may know that my hair is sort of a dark blonde color.  And you may recall that I’ve been a loyal Sun-In fan for some time.  But it has stopped working for me.  My hair has developed some sort of freaky immunity to Sun-In.  So my mom suggested this Loreal product.  In the lightest blonde color.

I had never used one of these DIY color thingies before IN MY LIFE.  But I read the instructions super carefully and wore the gloves and saturated my hair with the goo and even put on a kitchen timer for 12 minutes just to be extra sure it would work.  And then I did just like the package said and lathered it up with warm water and rinsed it out and conditioned.  And you know what happened?

I LOOK EXACTLY THE SAME.

I suppose it’s POSSIBLE that my roots might be slightly closer to the color of the rest of my hair now, but the difference is truly negligible.  If anything, my hair is a little darker now.

So I need to know, from those of you experienced with hair color, what you might use to Actually Lighten your hair without going too drastic.  Because Loreal Excellence 10-minute thingy did nothing but expose me to chemicals unnecessarily.

Advice please!

She really ought to reconsider her shade of blush.  I think she’d look a lot better with something in the peach family.

I wonder what his shoes look like.

Seriously.  That’s how jaded I’ve become.

Why?

Why would he think this is ok? Under any circumstances?
