The misaventures of Edward Scissorhands’ victim.

As usual, it will require an intense psychological preparation and a deep, deep breath before to step in the hairdresser’s.

Hairdressers and I can not be friends.

First, I have, as they say, “a- so-so-so-beautiful-hair-omfg”. From the second they spot me, I can see their hands shaking and their eyes becoming bloodshoot. I know the prospect of playing with my hair and scissors makes their mouth water. Consequently, I will end up with everything but the haircut I asked.

Secondly, I have curly hair. Have you noticed how hard it is nowadays to find a hairdresser who understand that no, your hair is certainly not straight when you get up in the morning, neither it is in the afternoon ?

And finally, who would befriend someone whose answers range from “I’d rather not” to “no fucking way !” ? I don’t blame them.

I think I’m going to have to start collecting decks of playing cards. :)
Each of the cards has a different illustration, and represents either a character or theme from Wilde’s works and/or life. I have to admit I got all sentimental when I saw that although Bosie is the Jack of Hearts, Constance is the Queen. :’) (Oscar himself, of course, is the King.)
Don’t expect to play Texas hold’em with these though. They’re just for casually admiring. With clean hands. While I stand over you, watching suspiciously to make sure you’re not bending them. :P

"People lie, cheat, rape, swindle, kill, maim, torture and destroy. Bad thing. People also pop into bed together and cosy up. Good thing. If we think fucking is a sign of moral decay then we’re a little bit stupid-stupid, aren’t we ?"

I just finished it. I am still in shock. David Simon & Ed Burns are geniuses.

I also feel like an orphan. Ray, Iceman, be back !

[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]

A piece of music that sounds appropriate to the darkening sky, the falling leaves & the melancholy that seeps out from everyone.

Autumn is coming, dear.

H series started two weeks ago. Therefore I am happy as a lark.

The very last scene made my cold, cold heart melt.

You can watch the trailer of this lovely independant film here.

And I have to find this poster, it’s almost too beautiful to be true.
