I have been having a wonderful week. Lots of time with friends which helps to balance all the “official” stuff that needs to be done.

Friday night I even went to a girlie party. There were women coloring each other’s hair, painting nails, there was food, I brought tea (go fig) and I even did an incredibly un-Carol act. [livejournal.com profile] dreadygoddess and I both put henna in our hair. I’ve never done anything to my hair before… I don’t even blow-dry it. This was a bit of a stretch for me. It was a spur of the moment decision. What was brown hair with auburn highlights is now brown with red highlights. It’s quite a change, it’s a bit darker than it once was, too.
