Glitter

At some point in early elementary school, I know it was before the second half of 4th grade because we moved at that point and I no longer took the school bus, I decided to put glitter in my hair one morning before running off to the bus stop on the corner. Nowadays putting glitter in your hair may not be an everyday activity, but you probably have done it, or seen someone else with it for a party or perhaps Halloween. But back then, for a 7 or 8 year old, this was unheard of. 

Once on the bus, a friend sitting nearby had climbed up on her seat to talk to me and at some point in our conversation about Barbies, homework or whatever else young girls talk about, she exclaimed, "Ewww! You have glitter in your hair." I'm not sure what my exact response was, but being shy, and apparently ahead of my time, I probably just blew it off.

Fast forward 20 or so years and I get an email the other day from Vital Juice about a stylist in Santa Monica that will weave pieces of tinsel into you hair. Definitely a step up from the coarse glitter I once sprinkled into my blonde tresses. Check it out for yourself.

Still on the hunt for a job. I have such a love/hate relationship with not working. It's great because I can do things during the week or have wild super bowl parties that go late into the night and not have to worry about getting up on Monday. It sucks because I'm home far more than I would like to be and well, the no paycheck thing is damaging my shopping habit.

But I figured I may as well enjoy the freedom of not working...hence the new addition of pink streaks in my hair. How very 90s of me. In high school I dyed my hair pretty much every color of the rainbow, but pink was always my favorite.
