Nancy Drew

[catch22girl]

I went to Waldenbooks today and got a Nancy Drew calendar for one dollar - I think that's a pretty darn good deal. I used to love Nancy Drew, she was the reason I wanted red hair in the first place. Of course, I never got red hair, I got reddish hair, because red never stays in my hair. So, that's why I went blonde instead. At least, semi-blonde and I need to get my hair done again soon, it's starting to be unmanageable. I did get the best hair dryer ever though -- conair ion shine! And yes, I'm easily taken in by vaguely scientific sounding beauty ideas.

Anyone remember the newer covers? I swear her hair changed with every cover, sometimes she was a strawberry blonde, sometimes a copper blonde and then I knew the designers had given up when she started appearing as a full blonde. My favorite of the new series was The Nancy Drew/Hardy Boys mysteries. Those were fun. I loved crossovers at an early age - lol.

Other random thoughts...

For about an hour tonight I was completely convinced that my cell phone was lost and I almost freaked out looking for it. Earlier today, I was convinced I had lost my wallet in a mall only to discover that no, I just couldn't see my black wallet against the black lining of my bag. I'm slightly blind sometimes, apparently.

It's so cold out here I heard that we're going to get snow all weekend - more snow! The worst part about snow -- the shoveling -- the best part? The look. If I could get the look of snow without the work I'd be a happy gal.

Daily Show was cute today, but I still don't quite get how "Jenny From The Block" was a satire.

Maybe I'll see DareDevil tomorrow, I don't know...the only thing I know for SURE is that I'm not going back to the evacuated theater any time soon.

For some reason, I remember that her hair is *always* described as "titian" lol I guess it was better than 'red' *G*

I used to read those voraciously...those and Trixie Belden books. OMG...that's like...soooo long ago lol

You're right, it was 'titian' -- but that's such a vague color - lol. Trixie Belden?

Beldon? Belden? Beldan? Anyway, they're mysteries set in upstate NY, along the Hudson. Trixie and her family and their friends... pretty cool, when you're 12 lol
