THESON FINALLY POSTED....."THE CUTTING"....

Theson has finally posted a video on his site - a painful one for me - of his "first" haircut in 15-16 years. I took this picture in April of '08, when he was home for his best buddies wedding. When his hair was wet - you can actually appreciate the length - and the CURLS!! Women were always telling me they would "kill" for his curls alone. Being the "mom", I always enjoyed combing it and occasionally braiding those thick tresses. Ahhhh, NEVERMORE!

In this video, filmed by his friend and co-worker Ken - his hair is dry and looks so much shorter - and I have to admit, I cried watching it being sheared. Theson was going to ask his girlfriend to marry him - but that didn't work out and they have now gone their separate ways. But this video will be memorable for nothing else than - THE HAIRCUT.

This was filmed in his apartment in Maadi, Egypt, where I stayed with him last May on my once in a lifetime trip. He is the best son in the entire world...I miss him, but thank heavens for Skype.

Enjoy.

thesons DILEMMA?!?!?!?!?

theson hasn't cut his hair in at least 14-15 years and I LOVE it long. He has been running a poll on his blog, as to whether to cut or not to cut. I had even gone so far as to try and stack the poll in favor of NOT cutting, but I got tired of rebooting my computer. Needless to say, the majority is favoring a shearing. If he does cut his hair, he is donating his tresses to "Locks of Love." That makes this a worthy effort.

I envy ETW on her Canon Rebel XT camera, but I purchased slightly lower than that. I bought the Canon PowerShot S51S today (picture above taken with new camera.) It has all the features I could possible need, and hopefully theson will help me play with it later this evening. I'm really excited just to be upgrading...I will let thedaughter use my little Sony Cyber shot.

On another note I just read that Condoleeza Rice is interested in being McCains' VP...now, has anybody noticed how little (if anything) this woman has done while in her position? And won't Bush be jealous losing her to another man? OOPS...can you tell I am not a Rice fan??? Just a thought.

So much for all I have to say tonight. Be back later. TTFN
