Quick Post.

Well, I have to get up tomorrow and step on the scale and see where we are in this weight loss battle. I'm crossing my fingers.  I lost a couple of pounds a week or so ago, I'm hopeful that I've done that again or at least not put on any weight.

I've also done a makeover of sorts.  I think with women especially I think it's important to give yourself a change. I know I get stuck in a rut at times, be it hair style, the type of glasses I wear or weight.  On April 9th I got a hair cut, just before my first date with the man that later turned out to be a racist and subjected me to a 35 minute diatribe of his hatred.  Again I don't care how you explain it, hate is hate!

Anyways! Yesterday, April 13th I got my hair colored.  I was sporting a very dark red color, I've had this color since 2006 or so.  Recently I had started to break up the very dark red with highlights which recently had kinda came out a bit orange. Well, yesterday I decided to go back to my 'natural' color (I say it in quotations because at this point what my natural color is basically is anyones guess).

I want to give my scalp a rest. I loved, loved, loved my red hair, I got so many compliments on the hair color, BUT it was very taxing on my hair. Red is a very hard color to maintain, almost as bad as blond. I was putting coloring on my hair each month. The beautician did tell me that with all that I'd been doing to my hair that it was really healthy in spite of what I'd done to it.

I just need to let it rest. I MIGHT go back to my beloved red in the future.

I wanted to get a more conservative hair style, plus I just got bored and needed something else.  It's a reddish brown with highlights.  We'll see what happens with the new color, hopefully it won't let the red show back through and I'm hopeful it'll be close enough to my natural color so I can just let it be.

I felt that a more conservative look would be receptive when on interviews and I believe I was correct.  Today I had an interview for a job. I'm not spilling any details, but I'm a few steps away from nailing it, I hope.

So wish me luck on the weight in. I may post a video of my hair just for the hell of it.  TTFN!!
