Streaks of blond

Bible study is over with for a little while; I had my hair colored, I absolutely love how it turned out. I had it lightened, with a tint of red, and streaks of blond, Small sweet delicate streaks of blond. I had it colored Saturday afternoon, the hairstylist told me to not wash it till this a.m.
That was hard to do, I shower and wash my hair everyday. And, then when I was washing it this a.m. I thought, huh...gasp, what if it turns orange, or green or blue or something? (Wheew, it didn't.)
I've gained weight since I've moved; I am not, Big, huge, big or even close. Just, heavier than I am used to being. I feel like I am on the right track though, With my new hair color I feel like I can start working out, Like I used to.
Isn't that strange; I hear an old, inquisitive, gotta understand everything Mark as he says, 'I wonder why that is? Why is that, Do you think, Melisa?'
Uh...I don't know. Here it is my first holiday, in a new city, alone and on my own. It won't be for too long though. I have to go home to see a friend buried, the weekend of Thanksgiving. She was a lovely, lovely, strong lady. Just a good person. A real good person. And, I sort a look forward to going home; Even, if for a second, a minute or two. To see my friends, go to my old church and to see at least one of my family members..While, I can. To do the right thing; Just like a person can only be born into the world once, So they can only die out of the world once. It is one of those occassions, One should honor. I want to be there for my bestfriend. I have a 90-year-old bestfriend and though she won't say it outloud (Strong, stubborn, Yeh is it a wonder she's my bestfriend.) I know she would like to have a friend with her as she says good bye to someone whose been a good and bestfriend to her. I have to go, it is the right thing to do. Why do I feel like I am trying to convince someone? Why do I feel like, I have, to convince someone? I am a grown woman; I live alone, make my own money and can pay my own way home to go to a funeral. Why do I have to answer to anyone.

Well I am almost done with my cheesy favorite book of the moment, 'Twilight.'
Yep, I said Twilight. I've enjoyed it so darn much; I am surprised at myself. I will buy the sequels, in Hardcopy too. It was a hard thing to admit, It was.
I am a book snob. They say admitting one has a problem, is half of the battle. Yet, somehow, I don't think I'll be able to help being a book snob. I don't think I can win that fight. Heck, I don't even think I'll try it. It is Monday night and I am missing CSI Miami, And maybe I'll go rooting and foraging for some sort of snack to snack on....And finish my book...
