I'm getting my hair done. Finally putting some red highlights into my naturally dark hair, which is something I've been talking about doing for at least a decade. I'm also seeing a new hairdresser today because mine is no longer doing hair. I'm hoping she does a good job.

Laura, that is ridiculous, but that is a good son you have.

Apparently the best solution is for my son to make a 5 hour round trip to pick her up and bring her here.

Does she not drive? I don't think you mentioned that in your first post. (Because if she doesn't drive, then I would refrain from calling her utterly ridiculous. If she *does* drive, well, she gets the Utterly Ridiculous crown for the day.)

If y'all hear an explosion from the Cincinnati area in the next hour, it's just me having therapy. My Hulk rage is at an all-time high.

Yeah, she drives, but she is riding up with me to NC, then flying back home so she can't leave her car over here. It is still ridiculous. I'm hoping my brother has no hesitation to bring her half way.

She thinks it isn't a big deal for us to drive 13 hours, which would end up being 15 with stops. She says she would help driving. Still, I do not want to spend 15 hours in the car with her and the dog driving on the highway. I planned on 10 and can deal with that.

I'm getting grumpy in my old age.

ION, thoughts of sj with red highlights pleases me.

Having just gotten out of a car, after having been on a plane, the idea of extra time in a car sounds terrible.

Bob likes travel.

Photographic evidence on Facebook.

Oh! Scampers off to FB...

Love it! So fun!

Thanks! I think Mom hates it and ltc is looking at me like I'm an alien.

My sister doesn't seem to mind 14 hour drives. Anything over 3–4 for me means a plane ticket or a hard pass. Go, Laura's son! Way to be a sweetheart.

I've never shaved anything specifically for a gyn appointment. I shave my calves before pedicures, but that's just because the massage part feels better that way.

I LOVE your hair so much! I actually want to do something like that but with pink, but I really just don't want to have 1500 conversations about it at work with the other Admins who already think I'm a whackaloon weirdo.

My doctor's appointment went well, except for the part where I could not think of anything to say to the question "What do you like to do for fun?" Of course, it was during the pelvic exam, so I was also distracted. Also, why do they make you fill out an online questionnaire, and then ask you all the same questions? Are they checking my veracity?

Tomorrow-- mammogram!
