Popular Randomness???

So a friend's twenty something coworker scolded me today for not updating my blog. It seems she enjoys the pure randomness of my thoughts. The layouts bore her - and I always think the the posts without layouts are the snoozers...

Anyway, before I tell you about my "Carol Brady" day, I have to say to that cute little twenty something - Go OUT!!! Have a Snakebite or a Hoegaarden in my honor at the Bulldog. Make "sexy" eyes at some guy and have him buy the second round. Laugh at his stupid jokes. Play pool. Don't do laundry or dishes when you get home. Pick up late night Taco Bell. Fall into bed in your clothes knowing that you'll make it to work in the morning - you've been doing this for years! And while you are doing that, I will have a smile on my face because you are checking my blog in the morning for the latest stream of consciousness writing...

So, back to my life (snoozer)... for the last three mornings, I have made the coffee, taken a shower, put on makeup, fixed my hair and then looked in the mirror only to see Carol Brady staring back at me. How did this cute haircut become Carol Brady all of a sudden?? What's a girl to do? Well, make a change, of course!

I walked into Salon Bella Vita where Rebecca is amazing. I was waiting for her when she got to work - just sitting there with the sad pathetic Carol Brady hair - of course she had that deer in headlights look thinking - did I double book? Once I explained the Carol Bradiness she knew an intervention was in order. She told me to come back at noon and we would get "snazzy".

So by 2 o'clock I had a new do - NOT Carol Bradyish. Feelin' better - I wouldn't go so far as "snazzy", but BIG improvement over this morning. If M&A can manage a picture I'll post one - seriously I don't know when Ironman is coming home. It's been just us girls for a few days.

Ok - no sign of the Ironman, so you'll have to wait for the new haircut - oh, I know - you can hardly stand it... Just go to sleep early, that's what I do when something exciting is happening the next day...

Come on HB, take a pic in the mirror. You know you want to post one! At least tell us what M&A said, not that it would give us any hints......remember "leopard"?

omg, I wanna see.....remember you DO LIVE ON THE COMPOUND, there has to be at least one adult who can POINT AND SHOOT.......ok, so....when can we go get a drink with a crazy name and make sexy eyes and get our drinks paid for??? Or does that not happen after you've been married a hundred years and gained a million pounds? But hey...we can buy our own drinks.....LET's GO!!!

Ok Heather...thank you for the updated blog post!! I greatly appreciate it.

FYI - I am the "twenty-something" she's talking about.

I'm 23 to be exact. I did go drink some beers at the Bulldog last night, I didn't pay for ANY drink...the guys I was with paid for them all night! I did not make "sexy eyes" at anyone though, that's not necessary for me! (haha - that sounded conceited) There are no pool tables at the Bulldog, we just sat outside on the patio and drank and talked. I did not do laundry or dishes when I got home - I did them Wednesday night! I did not pick up late night Taco Bell...I just went straight home, put on my pjs and went to sleep...and I was at work this morning and I did check your blog first thing!!! HAHAHAHAHA... so thanks for the shoutout!!! I thoroughly enjoyed it!! I can't wait for Dawn to get here so she can read it too!!

-Amanda-

P.S.-I'm glad you liked your party cup!
