Going Gray

I know, it's been a while since I posted...and I have a few fun things to share including the real live cowboy we saw on Saturday night and my ride on a fire engine. But until I have the chance to download the pictures, here's my post for the day...

I know I'm almost 35 and everything, but I've noticed that the gray hairs are starting to grow at an alarming rate! Seriously! I pluck them as much as possible (although I've heard that you're not supposed to do it...I wonder if that's true), but it's impossible to keep up with them. Plus, when you live alone, how are you supposed to pluck the ones you can't see?

It stinks getting old.

I'm 31 and I am getting them too. It's kinda depressing.

Just submit to the dye, Laura. We all come to this point eventually. And really, what's worse - having to dedicate one of your old t-shirts to your home hair dying endeavors or having bald patches due to over-plucking?

amen, sista! I hate gray hair. I think mine are actually just white and they get all curly and stick out of the rest of my hair. Stinks getting old.

I started going gray at 27. I've been dying for years. If I didn't, I would seriously look like a weird old lady.

I'm going to admit that I kind of like my gray hairs. They make me feel respectable. But I think it's mostly because, in my heart, I'm 80, and it just feels right.
