It's difficult to tell in this photo, but today I dyed my hair this really dark sort of mahogany color and I like it very much.

In other news, there is a dish of blue raspberry flavored Italian ice waiting for me in the freezer downstairs. Also, today I learned that the word "downstairs" was created by William Shakespeare. I wonder what William Shakespeare would think of Italian ice.

... by 'ice', do you mean 'ice cream'? :L
Shakespeare also invented the word 'bubble'. Too cool. ;o)

@metro_gnome Noooo, it's sort of like soft crushed ice with some kind of fruit flavor to it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Italian_ice
Sheesh, you Brits might be skinnier than the average American, but you're missing out on a lot of good food! :P
And "bubble," huh? I seriously wonder where he came up with that.

Ohhhh right. I think that's what we'd call a Slushie?

Oh wait, just looked it up, and Slushie seems to be something different according to Wikipedia? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slush_(beverage)

Lol, "Bubble, bubble, toil and trouble" etc. etc. is the first recorded use of the word bubble :D

@Metro_Gnome It's sort of like a slushie but more solid.
I wish I had come up with such a word. It's phonetically interesting. I'd rather say I'd come up with the word "bubble" than, say "truck" or "attorney" or some other mundane-sounding thing.

Aha, I dunno, 'attorney' is quite a cool word IMO ;D
