I was waiting for AB to arrive on Friday night and decided I was going to go blonde over the weekend. Poor AB was due to arrive at 9.30 and she didn't end up at mine till almost midnight due to evil traffic on evil motorway somewhere between Milton Keynes and London Victoria. It was soooooo great to see her though. We did talk for hours and hours and then we got up nice and early in the morning so we could talk even more! I miss AB! I wish she could move to London!
AB agrees that Onion Ring is a strange little troll-like creature. AB never says anything mean about anyone so it's clearly true. Onion Ring kept me awake all Saturday night with her drunkenly shrill voice on calls in her bedroom and bouncing my wine glasses off the walls and carpet in the wee hours of the morning. Clearly I slept in and missed my morning run in an effort to recapture some sleeping moments before work. Now I feel like a blimp. It's so great having someone to blame for all my problems! ha ha ha!
Am v pleased with my efforts at work yesterday. I had a lovely but nervous bride first thing when i was there and she was so pleased with what I did for her. Later in the day I had most difficult lady wanting a new look but didn't want to tell me what she usually wears, etc. The usual "let's test the make up artist" story. Half way through she didn't like what I was doing but decided to crack on. By the end she was totally loving it and bought everything! Hooray! Snaps for me!
Meanwhile, I am now a strawberry blonde again. I had intended to go properly blonde but I think this is a good compromise for the time being. I will think about going bombshell blonde in a few weeks. I definitely feel a little more like the old, flirty me with the new hair. I keep forgetting about it though and I get a little shock when I look in the mirror! Whoops!
Sweet SoH, please spend less time reading blogs and more time enjoying most brilliant holiday! I have noted lack of postcards. Do they not have mail in SA? Puppy beyond adorable, however how can you say it's "the most amazing thing I have ever met". Surely you're reserving that title for me??? Am hoping inclusion of picture and personalised message are making you feel better re: lack of mentions in most brilliant Blog.
