To Dye or Not To Dye

The overwhelming question niggling at the back of my head for the last couple of weeks is whether or not to try and dye my hair to some consistant shade. As some might remember, I had it bleached last year - I dyed over the bleaching back in the spring, as my roots were growing in and it looked bad, but my hair never takes dye well, so it's faded out a lot (even black fades on my hair sometimes, it's terrible). You can now see three different layers of color in my hair - my roots, the half-assed secondary bleach job (my hair doesn't bleach well, either), and the much better pro bleach job.

Now, to me, the layers are really really obvious, but, well, it's my hair, so I look at it a lot more closely than everybody else does. So, I leave it up to you, dear readers! ( This is my hair now: )

Look good, or no? Dying it is not a huge impact on my time or budget, I'm just a lazy bastard. And I'm trying not to fry my hair any more. Oh, and this is for Tatsumi and Leon, BTW.

Con Friday! So excited. Even though I'm kind of dead - didn't sleep well last night (had a House/Wilson dream, too, I think o.0), and I got five hours the night before care of neighbor. But! That might actually be getting worked out - although from the sounds of it, she was a lot less antagonistic to the RA than she was to me ('I'll comprimise' versus 'sucks to be you').

Costumes are done, at least for the definition of 'done' I'm using for this con. Still have no sidearm for Leon, but at the moment, the two options are something cheap, hideous, and plastic or nothing. And I have too much pride for cheap plastic. If I really tried, I might be able to get a starter pistol, which are better looking and still pretty cheap, but airlines consider those firearms and I don't have a hardsided case to ship it in. Things I need to do before the con - finish packing, buy some AA batteries, chem lab report, and not failing my English midterm.

There will be some of the usual pre-con stuff later this week, particularly once I find out if my cell number is still active. But for now, an FYI - Rockstar Juiced is a lot more drinkable than regular Rockstar, although still not as good as Full Throttle.
