DD thanks you for the compliments on her haircut. She hasn't said too much about her haircut other than it feels "weird" but she also told me she isn't having any regrets. I had DH take her to her appointment so they could have some special time together (not really, I just wanted to sleep in :-D) so I was surprised to see how much she decided to take off. I really love it! We think she has enough to donate to Locks of Love, but we have to check out the requirements because she's not sure if they take hair that's been color-treated, and she had highlights back in February.
And now for today's photos. Let's all point and laugh. I'll leave it up to you if you want to point and laugh at Baxter in his cone or me and my pathetic attempts at using flash. Baxter has a bit of an obsessive personality. And one of the things he's obsessed with is licking. He will lick your bare leg any chance he gets. He will lick your face if you're into that sort of thing. And he will lick himself to the point of skin infection if he's in an extra-obsessive frame of mind. A "leave yourself alone" in my voice usually does the trick to make him stop with the licking. He only listens to me saying that, though, which is weird because about all other matters he thumbs his nose at me (or he would if he had thumbs) and listens to DH. I wasn't watching carefully enough the other day. To make a long story longer, you can see his raw spot on his foot, and now he has to wear the cone. Which brings us to the pointing and laughing. He looks so embarrassed and offended.
Boy, that food bowl is really a mess. It needs a good scrubbing. In the meantime, it's funny watching him try to eat with the cone on.
What isn't funny is that he has figured out how to squish the cone against the floor, stick his tongue around it, and still lick his wound. It's also not funny that he constantly rams us in the legs with his cone and is banging into all the furniture and dinging it up. I'm pretty sure he's doing it on purpose because we laugh at him.
And because I'm not a good sport about this whole flash theme, I'm posting another pretty flower too.
Sorry for the long-winded post. Feel free to skip the words and just do the pointing and laughing at the photos.
Flash with flash exposure compensation at 0:
Flash with flash exposure compensation at -2:
I'm thinking custom white balance would have worked best on all of them. I still hate flash, but I'm going to keep experimenting.
