It's so hard to say goodbye

Well, I've said goodbye today to two major parts of my life: my blond highlights and hair and my beloved VW Beetle 'vert. Although they told me Tuesday, the trucker dude called me this afternoon asking if he could possibly take it today. It actually made life a little easier, so I told him to come on by, quickly vacuumed the interior and took all the floor mats, CDs, and whatnot out of the car, got the license plates off, and said a teary-eyed goodbye.

Here's a pic of my Bug on the truck behind a new 2009 S-Class Mercedes. At least they can chat in German together.




The other, albeit less major, but still integral part of my life, is my blond highlights. Three years ago I chopped 11 inches off my hair, got a bob and a blond dye-job. I have had some variation of that bob and blond highlights ever since.

Today, I went in the complete opposite direction. Although I still have the bob, the best color to describe my new hair is "chocolate brown with raspberry highlights." It's totally new, and totally rad.

Sorry, no pics of that yet.
