Please excuse the pictures of myself. I was having a good hair day and was on my way to a birthday party and well, I haven't posted a picture of myself in many moons, so I figured it was due. So here I am taking pictures of myself thinking about how my facebook profile picture has been the same since I opened my account on there. It's tempting to apologize for my imperfections I see in the pictures, but I won't because that would be tedious for you and you'd have to feel like you needed to compliment me to make me feel better about myself. What I will point out though is this...............................................
WORK! Now turn to the left. WORK! Now turn to the right. Name that tune, aye?
.......You know life is going along and you really feel for the most part like you're still 17 years old. I mean sure the mirror, my bread dough stomach, and the nearly 4 year old child that follows me around everywhere tells me otherwise but deep down I still feel like I'm in high school. I'm young. I'm invincible. I'm never going to die...WAAAAAA?! September 24, 2009. A day that will live on in infamy. The day I spied a pure white hair sprouting from my head. And it hit me. I'm dying!
I quickly plucked out that little sign of my mortality and photographed it for posterity...and you all. I mean snow white. Like that character off of X-Men after she's been put through the ringer by Magneto. I was trying to think back to what could have possibly made my body produce a single white hair. What kind of stressful situation can bring that on? Hmmm I wonder?

your hair looks fabulous. did you find a new gel?? i can get you the vavoom at a discount if you still need some. I was going to surprise you with some, but if you found something else you like let me know.
your hair does look nice. In these pictures it looks like you got it highlighted. crazy. I hope you did get good gel. :) one gray hair, who cares right. it's really not the end of the world.
I beat you to my first gray hair. I found mine like 2 years ago. It was a very depressing day. You look gorgeous! I love you I'm so glad that I have a beautimous sister oh la la!
You're not alone! My 21 year old stylist often makes fun of my many gray hairs:)
And so it begins... It won't be long before you'll be standing in the hair color aisle once a month, wondering if Nutresse is better than Clairol (hint - Loreal lasts longest). I used to pluck the grays, but I'd have been bald by 35 if I had continued that. So I color. And after 18 years of it, I still can't find a shade I really like. Good luck! And, might I add, you were having a VERY good hair day! And your daughter's hair is to die for! Lucky little thing!

Your hair looks fabulous and at the end of the day...or our lives...gray, white, or colored brown, you will still have hair and I will still be thinning...oh that sounds so depressing. I have an idea of a stressful situation that could bring on the gray but I will keep it to myself for now :)
