Rachylou and Thistle, it is a good maxim. I have to take care not to forget it.
Beth Ann, that's a good analogy! It's the same for me playing Clarinet.
Claire, my hair was actually for a longer time short or shorter than long. I cut it all off to a pixie twice, once with fourteen and once when I was seventeen. The rest of the time it was anything between that and shoulder length. The long hair you've seen me with was the first time I let my hair grow that long since I was a child. And yes, I'd say the Tomboy is still there. I need ease of movement, practical clothes. More casual than dressy. More feminine than I ever was, but not really girly. Like I said in Ornella's thread, I'm also rediscovering jeans and tees as a deliberate choice.
