You know what I love love love love love?

Really good vanilla ice cream - creamy and buttery and sweet - it's classic, like comfortable jeans or the perfect pair of slippers - you can dress it up, top it, drop it into a float, or just eat it plain. I hate that plain things are referred to as "vanilla" because vanilla isn't plain or boring, it's a really complex and amazing flavor. You really can't go wrong with a good vanilla.

You know what really sucks, though?

Really gross vanilla ice cream with an odd aftertaste so it tastes like flowery bathroom spray - what a freaking let down. I'm looking at you, Breyer's new creamery whatever-the-fuck-style.

In other news, I hate my hair right now - it's lighter than I usually have it and it's taken me months to get to this point, but I keep seeing people with wonderfully dark brown hair and I remember how much I like my hair when it's dark - it gives me that Snow White-esque look because of my sun-deprived complexion... or does it wash me out?

I also hate the length of it - I'm trying to grow it out - I know I look better with longer hair, and it's much more versatile than short, but it seems to be in this perpetual state of "in-between" - like the ill-advised long bangs that are right about cheek level, so they're always in my face, and the fact that I pretty much don't do anything with it other than put it up in a ponytail, or a bitch clip.

I'm so tempted to go all Britney and just shave it, but I know that I would hate it 10 minutes later and I don't have the money for good wigs and I don't look good in hats and then it would start to grow out and I'd end up with soccer-mom hair and nobody wants that.
