the best-laid plans of mice and men...

i've always loved that phrase, but i have no idea why or when mice have plans, and why, when or how they would get ruined. but there's 80,000 ways to say that same idea, and some others i enjoy are: man plans, God laughs. man proposes, God disposes. etc.
so since it's pretty early this is gonna be a quick one. i only have two pictures from the wedding so far, and they are both of my hair from the back. i figured there'd be plenty from the front, and i wanted the back documented, so after the wedding and reception and before the after party, i had jon take two shots with my cell phone.

the title of the blog comes from the fact that the hair is not what we had originally planned, which was kind of a bummer, cause i had really liked it -- in fact, it was the only thing in the whole ensemble i was really excited for. the rest i liked but didn't love. but apparently it was too humid for curls, so my tumbling cascade of curls would have been floppy nonsense with no curl, so... booo! but the end result was still pretty. i thought it looked a little prom-ish from the front, but i don't have any pictures of that at this time, haha, and it seemed to be a hit, so it's all good. my only complaint was that it was like 8 times the bobby pins the original style took, so when i felt down into it, i couldn't even feel my scalp.. just metal. which was weird. a first for me, since i never did the whole getting-my-hair-done-for-prom thing.

anyway.. enjoy. and just know that these pictures are after about 7 hours of wedding/reception/drinking/eating/occasional dancing/tons of picture-taking and literally about two minutes before i started ripping bobby pins out of my head. with jon's help, haha. what a good boyfriend!
