I want to dye my hair
I’m crazy. I really want to get red (not auburn) piecey, highlights in my hair. Why? I donno, but I have always liked the look of dark hair with red highlights…maybe even a miz of white in there too. The catch? I can’t do it…I would never be able to pull it off at the company I currently work at. How frustrating is that? Something I just want to try for a little bit I can’t do…unless I pay some serious money to get it done very well and then if it looks too edgy I can pay some serious money to have it dyed back. That’s a HUGE waste of money. I don’t know why, but it seems women can get away with the change in hair style and color much easier then men. Why is that?
Once, I wanted to grow my hair out too…but that only lasted 4 months then I cut the sides and back…let the top grown for another 2 months. I couldn’t take the “bad hair days” any longer and cut it the same way I had 6 months before.
What have you wanted to do to your appearance, but couldn;t for fear of reppremad at work or just the looks people would give you?
“This is one of those views which are so absolutely absurd that only very learned men could possibly adopt them. “

Marinating or marinate
I challenge you to use the word “marinate” in any of its conjunctions (I think they’re called conjunctions) whenever you have to tell someone you have to pee…for the entire month of October. What am I talking about? Kids say the darndest things: see what I mean.
Right, So hopefully you just read that…
As a new feature I’ll find a obscure word for a random routine task and challenge you to use it. The best part is that you can thank me for your soon-to-be new blog content on the funny stories that ensue after you complete the challenge! Oh…the stories can be flat out lies too! Who the heck is going to challenge your story??
Want more fun? This can even be a twist on Pee Wee’s Playhouse where whenever someone uses the word in a blog, you can “scream” in their comments. Ha! Who said the internet isn’t fun? Oh, you never saw Pee Wee’s Playhouse? Well the idea is when someone says the word of the day you scream. Simple.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to marinate.

I can’t believe this is one of the first things on 43 things that I added to my list; it was never that huge of a dream, more of an interest.
Last week per a conversation with a few friends, the decision to write a book came up and now one of my friends and I have started down the path. We had a nice brainstorming session last night and drummed up a few tasks…now we start with some paperwork formalities, then we’re off!
It’s a two year project; but as Lao-tzu said “A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.”
“Glamour, that trans-human aura or power to attract imitation, is a kind of vessel into which dreams are poured, and some vessels are simply worthier than others… A beautiful woman can turn heads but real glamour has a deeper pull… Glamour [is] the power to rearrange people’s emotions, which, in effect, is the power to control one’s environment.”
– Arthur Miller
