Anyway, since it's the middle of July, which is totally a shallow introspective insight month IMO, I think I just need a speedbump. Nothing major, just enough to shake me up. And I've figured out what I'm going to do.
Y'all, I'm thinking about getting highlights.
I know, right, kind of a big commitment? I mean, last year Dolo even sent money for me to get them done.
Instead I was all, "Oh wow, that would mean I had to find someone. That's not easy in the city since all the good ones are probably out of my league. And then, let's say I do find someone and it's a good experience, then you have to keep seeing them all the time. And you have to pay to see them! It's just too much."
[Except, sometimes you find a keeper in which case you have a new friend. I recently stumbled on an article I wrote for a college journalism class about that. It got me an A. If you're bored at work, judge for yourself. ]
My newest entre into highlights follows a fairly typical pattern. In the past, my hair has been my go-to source for quick life altering changes. I've been a blonde and a brunette, a lot of stuff in between, and currently some people think I have red hair. False.
I also once went from long hair like I have now to one of those short bobs that seem like a good idea but aren't. The BFF was not a fan. And for two seconds recently I was thinking about bangs but realized that was way too much. I might as well just get a dog if I want that kind of responsibility.
So even though a few blonde streaks may not seem like a lot, I still think that inching my way toward a life changing commitment is a testament to how far I've grown as a person in the past year.
Or something. Like maybe I'm just worried that blondes might be having more fun.
(Yes this could be due to hanging out with no less than 10 blonde Texas girls in the past few weeks. Exactly like college. Woo.)
i suggest you curl you hair and put bows in it...every day...for the rest of your life...muahahahah
