Remember that entry where I talked about how I'd decided to grow my hair super ultra extreme long? Remember "But I'm really bored with my style so I've got to do something about it soon or I'm gonna end up chopping it all off into a shaggy wild child 'do."?

Weeell. Yesterday I chopped it all off into a shaggy wild child 'do. I have a very long ponytail of hair in a ziplock bag that I haven't decided what to do with yet. I feel free but also naked. I miss my hair like a little pet or a stuffed animal. But I can't wait to experiment with my hair now. This cut has a lot of options.

And then there's the au pair news. Suddenly I've got eight different families pounding on my door, and I'd love to work for every one of them. So I'm scrambling to answer all their e-mails, which keep coming, and argh! But also ahh, a sigh of relief.

I'm really freaked and frightened about the antichrist being reelected, but I'm not thinking about it yet.

How exciting with all the au pair families! Where are they from?

Oi! I have like 3 au pair families all wanting to know more about me / call me / etc...is it normal to get completely freaked out at the idea of explaining to family why the hell you're wanting to be something they call "a low - paid slave"? I guess my family is just odd...we never saw the need for a nanny or an au pair, and so the idea of having one for anyone I know sounded odd, but it really sounds good to be / to do. But I'm freaking out all of a sudden because I started applying to schools and got my letter of rec's and doing the applications...and now I'm pondering moving away? I mean, gah! I'm fucked up!

Ok, not going to wig out in your journal anymore. I guess, back to my original question. Is it normal to be scared all of a sudden at the idea of moving somewhere to join a family you've never met?
