Hair and things
How is it possible to go from wanting to rip someone's lungs out with a rusty spoon, to loving them in one hour? I went to the hairdresser yesterday, and as they started to put the tint on my roots (yes girls, I colour my hair... I've been grey since I was 24. It's genetic, okay!!!) I told my hairdresser that it was the wrong colour. It was like blackcurrant and the usual stuff she uses looks like raspberry puree. She told me it was the 'recipe' that was on my card.... Needless to say, I came away from the basin looking like I'd washed my roots in gentian violet. I totally freaked - my hair is normally a dark red with white & gold streaks and here I am looking like some kind of technicolour freak. I was dragged back to the basin and fussed over for over an hour. At the end of it all, my hair looks awesome! I still have some violet in it, but that's been turned into streaks, and it looks great with the red and the white/gold. Okay - it sounds strange but it looks really cool. And I got a free cut & blow-dry as an apology! Go me!
I'm having so much fun catching up on all the reading I've missed. I seem to have spent the weekend in a haze of permanent lust! Luckily both kids are at various friends for the weekend so I don't have to worry about them sneaking up behind me and reading over my shoulder!
We moved offices on Friday - 300 people and they expected the movers to do it all in one day, and us to go in over the weekend to unpack! By 11.00 on Friday they had moved - but not unloaded - one truckful of furniture and boxes, with about another 40 loads to go. Luckily our Advertising Director is a really cool guy, so by 11.30 our department were in the pub having lunch on his company credit card ... and I was home at 2.30. I like that kind of working day... I could seriously get used to it!
Anyway, the kids are on their way back, and I need to plan some kind of supper... and two posts in one weeks is kind of a first for me!
