August 22, 2008 - visit to the hairdresser

BTW: does anyone else love Stephen Colbert? He is an absolute riot!





On the way home yesterday, I stopped to see my hairdresser, Susan. As I tried to explain my decision to go gray, I became sloppily overwhelmed and teary. God perimenopause sucks. I wish the depression and sorrow would end with the chopping of the hair, but I know it won't.

Susan explained that while she could never match the gray, she could cut lots of the blond off and then heavily highlight with silver and see where that takes me. She is very understanding; "worse case scenario: you hate it. I dye it. No problem!"

So into the void...the chasm...the vast abyss...the final frontier I proceed. Headlong and screaming.
