soooo sleepy.

Jun 22, 2009 15:04

I spent the weekend running around like a mad woman, so I feel like I didn't get much of one. It's all good though.

Saturday I did a customer appreciation event at Terry Costa, which sells casual dresses, formals and bridal gowns. We raffled off a Satin Hands set and got quite a few names. I then did a skin care class for a group of four Nigerian girls, who giggled and screamed and took pictures through the whole thing. It was a great time, and I feel like I can finish my month strong - if I don't reach my goal, I will definitely come close.

*Also, for those of you who volunteered to assist with remote facials, you should receive your packets this week.*

Sunday we went to my Dad's house to celebrate Father's day. We ate a turducken. This would be a chicken, stuffed inside a duck, stuffed inside a turkey, with layers of rice stuffing in between. It was definitely an experience, I don't know that we will repeat it anytime soon, but definitely worth trying at least once. I think my Dad was more impressed that between the 8 of us, we ate five lbs of mashed potatoes.

Today I am dragging a little bit. I've gotten a few things accomplished at work (most important - shopping for and eating a red velvet cake). I have a bajillion phone calls to make (tomorrow, tomorrow, there's always tomorrow) and a meeting to go to right after work, lots to do before this one sleeps.

*and now, for something completely different*

I am CUTTING my hair. OFF. I met a girl at Terry Costa with super-cute hair (looks quite a bit like your hair, Dr. Profeta, except she is blonde like me) and took a picture of it so that I could show it to BJ. I have an appointment for Saturday - unfortunately I couldn't do it any sooner. I have had long hair for the past four years, and I am beyond tired of it. I am tired of washing so much of it, I'm tired of fighting to comb through it after washing it (despite conditioner), I'm tired of having to style it, and I'm tired of being tired of styling it and putting it back in a ponytail, wet. I want something that fits my new life - wife, full-time cyberspace investigator and part-time business owner, closer to 30 than to 20 (and feeling okay with that). It's really weird, but I almost feel like holding onto this hair is holding me back from moving forward with my life - which sounds CRAZY - but I honestly feel like it's the kick in the pants I need right now.

I know that I'm ready, because where I was afraid before of the loss when I would see girls with long, long hair, now I think 'been there, done that.' Moving on!

I'm also contemplating a tattoo. This is the Chinese character for 'family' -




It's the most important thing to me, why not?
I'm thinking I might be a little crazy for wanting one, thoughts?

Back to work...just over an hour left! 

life, changes, mary kay
