April 6: Changes signing in Houston, TX

[Shecky]

OH!  AND JIM CUT OFF HIS HAIR!!

*GASPS*

That's just odd. Sometimes he's had his hair back in a tail, and the pic initially looked enough like that that I didn't think to question it.

[Aine]

nope, definitely super short.  Looks almost like a totally normal person now. 

Seriously, though.  The whole bookstore gasped like little girls at a Disney Princess movie when the announcement was made.

[Vijay]

Asked about the short hair and Jim said it had something to do with "Changes" (which I haven't read yet).

[Vijay]

Will try to youtube some of the Q&A, etc. Took it with an old camcorder I'd never used so it did not come out good and only got like 30 minutes of haphazard footage.  Since I have never done this uploading before it may take me some time to convert from stupid Sony format but will try to do it asap.

[Hazer]

Made it back home safe, if exhausted.

Pics I have: here. FB login req, but I set it public so you don't have to friend me to see them.

Awesome fun, just need more space for people. That was wicked crowded in there.

[Vijay]

I love the store and glad they got the business but it was even ill suited (parking, sitting, hearing, purchasing, etc.) in 2008 with half the people.  However, I don't think there are any better stores.  For Charlaine Harris MBTB arranged for the event at the downtown Public Library which has a large hall and parking.

[Shecky]

... my worldview is shattered. The Jesus hair is no more.

[Hazer]

Yeah. I had hair similar to what he used to have but had to chop it a couple of years ago because I went back into "Corporate America"... Fortunately I'm at a company now that doesn't mind me growing it out because when I do decide to chop it off again it will make another donation to Lock of Love.

First donation was 22" and that was because the lady cutting it didn't understand how to properly cut it or that I was going REALLY short with it.

Agreed. Also, with all the people, I didn't get to browse for other books like I wanted. Sad panda.

Here's my pic with Jim. It's from my facebook as well, but you should be able to see it. I look like a creeper in it though. ><

heh. Had you been facing more twords Jim it would look like you were pondering making a snack of his head.

[Priscellie]

The new 'do works for him.  Reminds me a little of Joshua Molina.

New to the board, but had a couple of pictures of the signing to share




He's signing the picture from his bookjacket.  Also his shirt cracks me up

You know I had a feeling that was you at the signing. The UT shirt and the UT earrings were what tipped me off.

I think you and I are the only two people who asked more than one question. heh

What can I say? The brainwashing has worked well.

I felt kind of bad asking another question but no one else was saying anything at that point so I went for it.

I've seen Jim with short hair.

This is not short hair.

This is "I'm shipping out tomorrow" hair.
