Transformational Transformation!
"Transformative" is a word I'd never heard until I started working for Jeebus, along with "missional" and "visioning." But last weekend felt pretty transformative, not on any grand, life-altering scale, but in the sense that I feel I am no longer being overpowered by my hair, or overshadowed by my glasses.
It took me ten tries to take a photo of myself over the shoulder and in a mirror. It's harder than it looks! It should be a friggin' Olympic event!
Anyhoo, here's my ratty, hippie hair, as of Saturday morning.
Yeah, completely out of control. Too much upkeep, and very little pay-off, as there are very few gorgeous men stopping me on the street, begging me to let them run their fingers through my supple locks.
BUT! Here's my hair sans five inches on Sunday morning!
I expect a stampede of hair fetishists to mob me at any moment!
Okay, here are my old glasses.
I don't like the way the top of the frame cuts me right across the top of my eyes. This is what I get for letting the 97-year old receptionist help me pick out frames. (Seriously, is she my optometrists mother? Why does he keep her? She can't even walk!)
Anyway, here are my NEW frames, that I picked out all by myself!
Nice, eh? So, yeah, I'm pretty happy with the overall package. I'm no longer hiding behind my glasses or drowning in a swamp of hair.
I guess now all I need is a new ass, fewer chins, and a complete wardrobe overhaul. Baby steps, Wenchie. Baby steps.
Comments
1) It is a pain trying to take flattering pictures of yourself.
2) You look simply marvahlous!

Nicely transformative! In addition to beauty and wisdom, your eyes are also bionic.
