he's an aneurysm waiting to happen inside my cranium.
i saw mamma mia tonight with my mom and sister. i've never been to the movies with them before. my dad was a baptist minister, and in the 80s pastors didn't go to the movie theatre. except, we did go to see billy graham presents "caught". man, that movie was disturbing. much worse than "the chipmunk adventure" or the ernest movies or anything ELSE we could've seen...
anyways. we saw mamma mia. i have to admit, i liked it much more than i expected. i thought it would be good, but i really loved the older women. i can see myself being much like them in my 50s. i loved meryl's long hair, i long ago decided to keep my long hair when i'm older, i think it's ridiculous that women cut their hair simply because "older women just don't have long hair". WHO SAYS?!?! meryl was beautiful and flowing and natural and confident. i loved that she and her girl-friends were goofy and comfortable together like old shoes. i hope i'm like that with my girls when i'm that age. somethings change with maturity, but personality doesn't. melissa's always saying she wishes she could see me at work because she thinks i'm too goofy to be professional (not that she doesn't think i am, but she wishes she could see me there since it's a side of me she's never known). i am rather goofy and quirky and random, i don't suppose that'll change much when i'm in my golden years, in fact i might be even more so! i've had things dormant fear for as long as i remember that as i get older i'll lose myself and turn into the grown-ups i've always known. it's disturbed me since the beginning. but now i'm feeling more assured that won't happen.
i need to download a bunch of abba songs. forgotten how much i love the song dancing queen.
when tomorrow gets here where will yesterday be?

yes! I'm totally with you on keeping the long hair. Except I cut mine about 9 months ago on account that post-baby it was all shedding and being grabbed at by unreasonable baby hands. It's growing back, and I feel I can safely say, that it will alway be grown back if needs must cut it again. I like my hair. I like yours too. I see no reason why this can't continue as it turns cool shades of grey and white!
totally! who came up with this whole "long hair is for the young" thing anyways.
i didn't realize post-baby causes shedding, but that doesn't really surprise me, babies do strange things. my friend rhonda's hair went curly after having her son.
i'm very particle to long hair. i like yours too :)
