Where does a gal get her hair done in LA?
There's also Ultra Lux Salon in either Redondo or Hermosa beach. I've never been there but it seems like a cute place! I've been meaning to go since I spend a lot of time in the South Bay rather than the Burbank area.- pigeon toe

What would you love to wear but have not?
I can't even come up with a single definitive answer because there's so much out there that I'd love to wear but don't have the income for! I've always wanted a great, long 1930's formal gown, however, as I'm 5'2" I fear I'd be drowning in the thing. Also, an original burlesque outfit would be...- pigeon toe

Dating etiquette
He did get lucky! I was so hurt and angry. I think it was just an honest, stupid mistake on his part. He's a wonderful guy and has treated me amazingly ever since, so I'm quite glad I didn't dump him!- pigeon toe

Dating etiquette
I can't think of any of my own mistakes right now, but my boyfriend made a BIG one when we were first going out. I had only been in LA for a few months, and didn't know any of his friends when he invited me to a birthday party for one of his high school friends. Being that I'm quite shy (he...- pigeon toe

Nutrition and exercise!
I had just lost the 7 lbs that I gained over the summer when I got shipped off to the Netherlands -- the land of cheese and chocolate and pastries...all things I am addicted to! It was so easy at home to lose weight just by not buying sweets and popping in a Lean Cuisine for dinner, but that's...- pigeon toe

Is Swearing a Vice?
Oh goodness, I am a terrible swearer. Quite often I surprise people with my foul mouth -- people don't expect those words to come out of a tiny girl with a squeaky voice! But it's a habit that started when I was 8, and I don't really care too much to change. I don't swear around anyone other...- pigeon toe

iPods! Yay!
This American Life is a great podcast, as are Science Talk (from Scientific American) and The Skeptic's Guide to the Universe. There are also a few podcasts that specialize in vintage radio shows which are fun too.- pigeon toe

Best hairpsray ?
I got some Elnett the other day and it worked pretty well. Of course my curls had mostly fallen flat by the end of the night (but I was out running around all over Utrecht), but they held up while I was indoors, which is more than the other hairsprays did for me over here. Now I'm seeing how...- pigeon toe

Girdles, Corsets, and Underpinnings
Has anyone been to the WKD boutique in person? There's a 99% chance I'll be visiting London in the next few months and so I wanna know if it's worth stopping by to shop! I know that Playtex (maybe Hanes, not too sure!) has bras in half-cup sizes, which is a god send for me, because I'm between...- pigeon toe

Northern Californians...need a raft?
Wow, I'm actually glad I'm not in California anymore! This reminds me of the first year we moved to California. We had a creek in our backyard that flooded, our pool flooded, our garage flooded, and we were without power for who knows how long! In high school a few times we were without power...- pigeon toe

BEST OF 2007
Music, I'm not too sure of. Maybe The Tabaltix, a psychobilly band that sounds more like 80's psychobilly (a really strong rockabilly influence). As for movies, I really loved Juno. I don't watch a lot of movies, but that one was wonderful! For TV series I'd have to say Dexter. I haven't...- pigeon toe

Congrats! I've always wondered if people actually won sweepstakes or if it was just a big sham. We'll I guess this proves they are real! :)- pigeon toe

Best hairpsray ?
Is Elnett available in the Netherlands? Is it a supermarket/drug store brand or can you only find it in beauty supply stores? I'm going to be living in the Netherlands until May, and I need a new hairspray! I got a Schwarzkopf hairspray at the supermarket, but my hair falls flat in less than...- pigeon toe

How to avoid looking like emo / rockabilly / scene ???
"Emo" is some sort of music that involves a lot of whining I think. ;) And the style of dress is more of a skinny skinny jeans, ironic t-shirt, square glasses and dyed black hair kind of thing. Right? Perhaps I'm a bit off! Also, an easy way to separate yourself from the average rockabilly...- pigeon toe

How to avoid looking like emo / rockabilly / scene ???
I kind of know what you mean, as I don't want to be taken as a "cherry girl" (what my boyfriend and I call the rockabilly girls who dress head to toe in cherries and try to be Bettie Page look-alikes). There's not anything wrong with that style, it's just not me. I mean, I'd be a hypocrite if I...- pigeon toe

I'm in LA!
Wish I could help show you around, but I just moved to the Netherlands! I'll be back in May though! I really hope you like LA. I was originally from the Bay Area myself and all through high school I thought I would hate it, but once I moved there I fell in love with the place. I'm really...- pigeon toe

Show us your hair do's....
Oh wow, thank you so much ladies! I wasn't expecting such a response, you all are way too sweet! I washed it for the first time this morning since I got it cut and it's so much easier to take care of! I don't have to use nearly as much shampoo and conditioner and there are no little nasty...- pigeon toe
