Happy birthday, SA! Though I'm still all woe-betided that you won't be in SF on this trip. By the time you meet Matilda she's going to be a total small person, not a rosy little baby. Still adorable and lovable and yum, but not baby yum.
Aw, I know! This is the first time I get to meet the Bean too, and she's all toddlery and stuff. I just have to live vicariously through pictures, and maybe next year do California again.
Awwww. We need pictures of you cutieheads too.
I have strong prescience that that may well occur tonight.
ION, it is raining like mad crazy here. I couldn't hear it over the air conditioner, but then a freaking Thor-sized thunderbolt rang throughout the hills and I was all WTF? And thus saw that the sky was falling.
car~ma for Andi and Daniel.
Thanks for all the car~ma, everyone. I got my Caprice squad car out of mothballs, and although it needs an exhaust manifold, exhaust repair, cosmetic repair, and the tranny is a bit sticky, it ran like a dream to work and back.
Also, my cousin Steve (who is muuuch better now, for those who remember my talking about him) says it might not be a thrown rod, but something inside the engine that is cheaper to fix. Full eval this weekend.
Skies opened up here too.
I thought we were done for the week.
In shallow news: J at the Masquerade!
Many thanks to JZ for lending me her cunning hat. It was quite the hit.
wow! you look spectacular!
JZ, I use Herbal Essences semi-perm. If you get a color slightly darker than your own (or leave it on a little longer) it'll come out darker and the color will "soften" but it won't wash out as quickly. I use the dark brown. I have about 50% gray and it covers it nicely.
Pretty juliana!
JZ, I've used the Clairol Natural Instincts as a semi-perm (Plei is gonna correct me because it's really a demi and she's right.) and it works nicely. Bits of gray are just starting to show through as highlights and I did mine a few weeks ago. The gray definitely pokes through first. The rest of my hair will likely keep the color another couple months.
Though I'm still all woe-betided that you won't be in SF on this trip.
And the irony? I will be in the Bay Area for a few days while SA is "here".
Wowza. Those are some damn fine pictures, juliana
