Lighter Still

I got a really kind comment from Kate the other day asking me to blog again. I'd been out of the blogosphere for so long that I didn't even know they'd adopted a sweet little girl. Congratulations, Kate & Landon & Lula!

For the sake of diving back in, I thought I'd start with an obvious and most recent development: I, uh, went blonde? I'd been dying my hair black for so long that I decided I wanted a change. A BIG change. And the process to get this light was really awful.

But these pictures kind of make me feel better about it.

I fried my ends after doing ombre for so long that I just had to chop them off. And there's still a lot of warm streaks in my hair, and then some blue/green streaks from where the ash toner kind of bit right in and wouldn't let go. Because I wasn't trying to go blonde, but that silver/grey that's really hip right now. That's why my roots look grey. They were the only success. But um, I like it? Question mark? This happened only three days so I'm still kind of reeling from how much I hate bleach. I hate bleach. And if I truly want to achieve my silver end goal, more bleach needs to get involved, but  . . . no. No more.

Other life updates:

We bought a house!

The children have continued to age and grow and poop!

I'm now the RS Secretary!

Seve shaved his beard and grew it back in again!

The new Blonde Redhead album is so good!

The film adaptation for Horns was so bad! So bad!

And, well, I'll be blogging again for a bit. It feels good to blog right now.

  2. Oh! I am so happy to see this! My pestering worked! (See, I'm just getting back into blogging myself and still don't check my feed very often)

    Your hair is so great. You bought a house! Your kids poop!

    Thank you for the congratulations, she is the best thing.
