Attack of the Faux Bangs

Today I spent most of the day with my Mom. She came into town so we could pick out wedding invitations. When I asked her what I thought about my faux bangs, all she said was that they used to do the same thing when she was young. What do you think about me with bangs? I'm pretty sure that I look better without bangs, but you can't go through life with the same haircut you had since high school. Sometimes you just have to shake it up. I really want a change, but every time I've had bangs before they were bad b/c my hair is so wavy and frizzy. I wonder if having heavier bangs might work. Anyway, it's highly unlikely that I would do anything drastic like cut bangs right now since I've got the wedding coming up, but you never know what I might do when I come back from the honeymoon. So I would love to hear your opinion about bangs as an option for my face.

What I Wore While Picking Out Wedding Invitations:


  • blue tank (Target)
  • green wrap sweater (Target)
  • blue floral skirt, shortened (thrifted, Goodwill)
  • earrings (I can't remember)
  • black leather sandals (Truflex)
  • faux bangs (yours truly)
  • golden snitch necklace (Love Erin Designs) *

* yes I am a total Harry Potter geek. I may have screamed and jumped up and down a little when Erin said she was going to start making these necklaces. Shhh don't tell anyone that I'm that geeky. Ok who am I kidding? Everyone already knows.

What I Ate That Was Mostly Cooked By Other People:


  • breakfast: scrambled egg with jalapenos, onions, and Laughing Cow cheese (prepared by Rand), alternative bagel, cantaloupe
  • lunch: original sandwich and side salad (Chick-fil-A)
  • snack: string cheese, cantaloupe, Cliff Z bar
  • dinner: BBQ Beef Cups (made by Rand again), roasted broccoli, pink lemonade

Exercise:

Still nothing b/c my calves are even worse today. Lazy day for Tina!

Total for the Day: 32.5 points (5.5 points from Weekly Allowance), no exercise
