I am always looking for cute hair styles.  I take pictures on my cell phone and take them to my devoted hair stylist asking for miracles.  Grace and I were in Target the other day and I notice a poster of a darling hair cut.  I shot the picture and was off to see Jane (my stylist).  Jane cut a cute pixie style and we both commented on how it would look better if I was platinum.  
You can probably see where this is headed.  I decided to lighten up my hair and what occurred was some sick chemical reaction that landed me with old lady, lavender gray hair.  It was 8:30 at night and I was too tired to cry.  Bryan and Grace kept telling me it wasn't that bad.  This just made me mad because I knew they were lying.
Dialed up my neighbor Heidi who I knew would be truthful.  In PJ's and slippers I ran through the backyard making noise so the cougar wouldn't get me (yes, we still have cougar issues in suburbia).  Heidi, being a true friend said "Oh Honey, its NOT OK."  Thank you!!! Some honesty.  She hands me a glass of chardonnay and we sit down to watch dancing with the stars.  This is not a good show to watch when you are feeling ugly.  Every woman has a rocking, spray tanned body and glued on costumes.  
My every faithful Jane is fixing me at 0930. I considered taking a picture but my pride just can't handle it.  
P.S.  The lastest on the Cougar is that the wild life people believe it is a male cougar weighing 120-140lbs.  My father tracked him and found paw prints.  The wild life people gave us directions on how to recognize cougar scant(crap).  Lovely.  I didn't move to Mason to look at scant.

You have the ability to combine humor with reality - a quality that has served us through the years. Everyone needs a Heidi...the one who will say "yes" that hair must be fixed! Also, thanks for the visual of you dodging the cougar - What is up with that?
Ang, as we discuss humor, and you indeed have it, I was there for the "RED HAIR" incident - weren't you in the salon for 6 hours the next day???? I walked downstairs, saw you and thought "It must be changed!"
Good luck today - good times!
