red and nude

• Here is my new hair. I had it done at a salon, which was quite an indulgence. It is a very striking color that is not found in nature. It gets a lot of attention, as it contrasts greatly with my mayonnaise skin. Sometimes I think I like it and other times I don't. As Jerry says about me, I really like being noticed, but I really hate being noticed.
  
  

• Would you ever consider going to a nude beach? I am open minded. Sure it is not modest, but in some cultures it is considered de rigueur. In Finland everyone gets naked for the sauna. In a purely non-sexual way, I think it would be very fascinating to see all of the different variations on the human form. I would wish I were a sketch artist, but all of the bathers probably would not appreciate being sketched. Or maybe they wouldn't care, how should I know?

• I dropped Aubrey off at Carnegie Mellon University on Sunday. It was sad of course but somewhat natural as well. She knows not a single person there. She is ready for her new adventure. I will post pictures of this event later.
