So I wrote this last week but was about to delete it because I was like, it’s sooooo boring, who wants to read about my boooring life? And then I thought, hmmm, well, this site is called Michelle Woo (me), so I guess you all do. Which brings me to my first goal of 2010 [...]

Oh yes, hair. A big thanks to all who weighed in on Decision 2009: Long vs. short wedding hair. Well, after many chats with my bridesmaids and dates with my bathroom mirror, I have finally decided to go …

Showing off my skillz, my new haircut and Matt’s spectacular view.

Tho far, tho good!
OK, I guess I don’t sound that bad, at least according to my too-kind friends.
I’m very thankful to have this state-of-the-art apparatus that will, in just one year, make me smiley-er and prettier, but I have some things to whine about and that’s exactly what [...]

So it is almost the middle of February, my deadline to get skinny, and yet I am not skinny. So Matt wins! Hooray! Cue the confetti.
