NYC on a Friday Night!

The other day a co-worker mentioned to me that they show free movie on the flight deck of the Intrepid docked in the river. The other Friday I went with a group of friends to watch Jaws ( a movie by the way that gave me years of nightmares as a child... I was even afraid of pools, convinced the floor would fall out and a great white would appear) It was such a great NY experience. There was a great breeze off the water and it started to rain a bit, but that didn't stop us. Everyone just pulled out their umbrellas and sat tight! That is until the lightning started and they had to shew us all off the deck for safety reasons. But even with that and getting completely drenched it was one of the best nights. I am hoping to go to the next movie this summer.

Back to my roots... literally

This summer I made a huge decision. To go back to my "semi" original hair color. My hair changed color over the years naturally depending on how much I was in the sun and I am sure many other scientific things I do not understand. But from the time I was 16 on I was a red head from a bottle. And the last few years in NYC I gradually became darker and darker... even dark brown/black occasionally. This year I let my roots grow a bit to discover that my strawberry blond had become an ashy grey blond :( not a good look for me. So with a little stylist aid and several hours (11 hours and 3 hair appointments) I am back to a much more natural strawberry blond. I still love my dark auburn hair so am not sure how long this will last, but for now it is a fun change. I still don't quite recognize myself when I look in the mirror.....

Before & After




These are just quick shots from the camera on my computer. I will try to get some better shots soon.
