But blondes do not gray well. It's this weird, yellowed-with-age, gray thing.

Aiiiiiiieeeeeee!!! Please don't tell me that! I had counted on going white.

As others have said, it depends. Blondes often, but not always, have a yellowish-gray.

My hair used to be blonde. It looks okay gray.

Case in point. Hec's hair is beautiful. I would let my hair go that color. Unfortunately, the last time I checked (which, I'll admit, was at least 5 years ago), my hair was not a pretty gray.

{{Betsy}} So sorry to hear about your friend. I hope they track him down soon and he is fine.

Murder is therapeutic.

Just needed to be restated.

He brought me a teacup last night for a second date because he noticed that I collected them when he was in my apartment for our first date.

Definitely a keeper. A guy who notices things is rarer than rubies.

Here's hoping that Betsy's friend is fine and just caught up in the confusion. Good luck to you, -t. At first I wrote passing~ma, but it sounded too much like I was wishing you the ability to be something you're not. And at least the eight transitional visits are something, vw. I hope with the next therapist you get off of therapist roulette for a good long while.

I've become increasingly irritated at people in doctors' offices and the like who don't at least attempt my last name. I know it's a difficult name, people, but take a close look at me. Do I look like I want to be your friend?

I have a huge amount of work to do, plus I still haven't de-decorated, as a friend's daughter puts it. Am I doing any of it? Noooo.

Maria, I will write a note if it will help.

You haven't gotten annoying yet, sj.

A guy who works down the hall and comes into my office for coffee was calling me "Tam" for a couple of weeks, and then thought to ask me if I minded that, and I told him it wasn't my preference but I wasn't gonna jump down his throat about it. He said he'd stop. He hasn't.

I mistyped the same letter 3 time in this post. In the same place. Mistype, notice wrong letter, backspace, type the same wrong letter again, lather rinse repeat. And if I drink any more coffee time may stop for everyone else. SIgh.

Call it Mardi Gras decorations and leave it up till February, Ginger.

Eep! Betsy! I hope your friend is okay.

ION, now that I've made the decision to move, I'm finally starting to hear back from places where I've applied for jobs. le sigh

I may go through with one of the interviews just for experience's sake, though.

He brought me a teacup last night for a second date because he noticed that I collected them when he was in my apartment for our first date.

Awww...that gives me the warm fuzzies. He sounds like a good'un.

-t: here's to time flying by today.

It is very slow where I work today as well. There's very little to do except play on the internet.

Isn't that always the way, Anne (hearing back from jobs after you've made a decision that makes taking said jobs impossible, I mean). It occurred to me the other day that you won't have to gvie up Wtch and Posts when you move to st. Louis because you'll be in the Central Time Zone.

It is very slow where I work today as well. There's very little to do except play on the internet.

Someone want to make phone calls for me and fill out some of my forms? I'd greatly appreciate it!

Hey Anne! Good to hear about the hearing about jobs. Practice interviews are a good idea plus, if you do get job offer or offers, it will give you a good boost of job-hunting self confidence.

If you don't have anything else to do on the internets, check out our little faux webpage (our real one is for real in the works and should be ready for the public soon): [link]

Warning: the music starts up when you open the page. I HATE that but can't figure out how to make it stop.
