If you're not happy, go back and talk to him about it, especially if you're a regular. He wants you to be happy with your hair.

Be warned, though, that fixing color is tricky. I had a color issue with a new colorist in CT (my hair turned out clown red). She fixed it and I really liked the new color, but 6 months later, a bunch of it broke off. Just my cautionary tale.

Thanks.

Yeah, my hair is pretty fine so that's definitely a fear.

I really didn't have much choice in the fixing, but if you just don't like it, you should still let him know. Maybe go in so that he can see what you don't like about it, so that it doesn't happen again.

YOU GUYS. I AM HILARIOUS.

Here, in case anyone forgot, is my wedding dress: [link]

Here is my damn PROM DRESS from 24 goddamn years ago: [link]

So, I have a type, it seems. And it hasn't changed much in a quarter of a century.

(The Prom picture is even cooler, because those 2 gentlemen on either side of me, who I have cropped out for privacy reasons, were my English teacher and my Algebra teacher. NO ONE IS AS COOL AS ME.)

This IS hilarious. And, you look faboo in blue.

I think we might be twins in parallel universes. My teachers we all my besties in HS and, I definitely have a type clothing-wise. Whenever I _really_ like something, it is a safe bet I actually own it already.

Just got a reminder of how idiosyncratic bodies can be.

A friend of mine suffered a reaction for no reason anyone could determine. Could not sleep. No appetite. lost 20 pounds in six weeks. And every test on earth found nothing. Finally a nurse redid the in-depth interview. "Did you change anything?" "I answered that at the beginning" "Answer again. Can you think of any change no matter how small.."

Well it turned out that having passed menopause she decided it was time to drop the birth control she had been on since the age of 30, when she decided that three kids was plenty. They put her back on the birth control pill; She is eating and sleeping again, and has gained back 18 of those 20 pounds over the past three months. And eventually they will try tapering her off in small gradual increments, the way they get people off predsizone. Anyway, cheers to the nurse who had the hunch to run the questionare again instead of trusting that it had been filled out the first time. And I'm guessing that is not the normal reaction to going off a birth control pill. Don't know which kind she used.

Bodies is weird, yo. And birth control pills are hormones, and hormonal changes make your body do the wacky.

Speaking of bodies and medicine, in this fascinating NBC news story, a doctor in San Diego talks about revolutionizing medicine (and its costs) with a smartphone.

I've been trying to think of ways that it could go wrong, but it seems like an interesting path to explore, regardless.

So, I bought a groupon for a month of krav maga classes. I plan to start April 1.

Vortex, I'm afraid that will cause you to exceed your Awesomeness quotient. You can only take krav maga as long as you don't fight while wearing a corset.
