This is my first post in NB. Started it in D/S... but you know? I think it goes here.

Nothing huge. I got my hair cut last weekend (I have had short spiky cuts for years), and did something kinda different. I *almost* have a mohawk. Its way short on the sides and back and all crazy long and spiky on the top and longer in the middle on the back. But not like punk mohawk... like... business mohawk. And this weekend am dying it black with big hot pink chunky highlights. Cus I can that's why.

I have been feeling extra spicy this week and I'm not sure why, but I realized this morning that the x would have haaaated this haircut (which was not consciously in my head last week at all) and I really love it. It's the first (visible) thing I've done that feels like ME. Feels like the me before all that other shit happened.

I dunno, it just made me very happy realizing that. It's like all these little things keep happening and the doubt and negativity and 'bad' that was my M at the end is shedding off, piece by piece. I still have my days, but overall my soul and my being just feels lighter. I'm... happy. Is that what that feels like?

Well done you!

This is exactly what those NB things are "supposed" to feel like. Every day you make decisions (some big, some small) that are just yours. Things that make you smile. Being the decider in your own life is really an incredible thing.

Just love it LE.

(P.S.: it also looks good with your bitch boots).

Edited because I apparently need to watch conjunction/junction again.
