37. Love the Oldies

just changed my playlist again - god how i love the oldies :)


i worked with a guard yesterday who - when i mentioned oldies - made this gagging noise. i was shocked. i then asked him - as i do a lot of people upon meeting them - if he at least liked the beatles. he stared at me blankly. i asked him if even knew any of the beatles and he slowly replied 'john lennnnnooon...i think'. dear god in heaven - what is happening to the youth? i'll give you not liking their music but to not even know them?? no excuse - bad parenting. sigh......


but...i do work with another guard who upon realizing we liked the same type of music mentioned that i chose my first university based on a CSNY (if you don't know this band shame on you) song (and yes - i chose my place of higher education based on a rock and roll band - but it was very history related). he knew right away - Kent State and the song was Ohio. and this guard was younger than the dumb one - so there is hope out there i suppose......

36. To Cut!

i'm going to do it!


i just made an appointment at the JUUT (i think that's how you spell it) salon for september 13th - the day i will try on my wedding dress again! the salon itself is pretty expensive but since i'm rather nervous about chopping it off i want it to be good. not that places like cost cutters and trade secret are not good but i haven't had the best of luck there - very hit or miss - (anyone remember the time when they decided to layer my bangs! ack!). so i'm shelling out a few more bucks and crossing my fingers.


i'm also going to be getting it styled like i would for the wedding so i get the full effect. so - be on the lookout for a cut angled (or not) bob cut with some volume in the back (ala early 60's). if you find something let me know - i've been looking but haven't seen exactly what i'm looking for.


alright - now i'm off to the gym. must go to gym before i can play with all the cute stuff i just bought at the yarn store :) (someone really should ban me from it - i went in to buy one small thing and ended up leaving with about ten more....)
