Going Gray

I'm kind of obsessed with this book. I think it's because I'm already sick of dyeing my hair and I'm only 31! Of course, thanks to some awesome genetics, grays have been sneaking onto my head since I was a teenager.

I think if I really had a full head of nice silver or white hair I'd probably go with it, but I'm worried my natural sort of bland medium/dark ash brown hair + a ton of greys will just look messy and weird.

I've been considering switching from permanent dye to the kind that lasts for 4-6 weeks and slowly fades to see how it looks as it grows in.

Anyway, regardless of what I decide, I think this book looks really interesting. And check out the great group of before and after shots the author has on her site (that is, women before growing in their natural gray hair, and after - and even a few who have never dyed theirs).

OK, in light of my recent crying jags about animals in shelters, anybody want to do something nice for them? That is, if you don't have a giant farmhouse that means you can adopt 50.

Thanks again for the crying gene, Mom.

Sarah McLachlan and the ASPCA make Jenn cry

OK, so last night I'm watching something random on TV, I think Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares on BBC America and all of a sudden, during the commercials, I see a depressed looking dog in a cage and Sarah McLachlan's song "Angel" starts playing. I immediately burst into tears and say, "Fuck you Sarah McLachlan, for making me cry!" and the commercial continues by showing me about 20 more sad looking animals, kitties and dogs, and it's for the ASPCA so then you get a few lines about how every year thousands of animals are abused, neglected, etc. but the ASPCA works to help and save them etc. but for many it's too late. More crying. Then Sarah McLachlan herself comes on and talks more about how you should give money to the ASPCA and by then I have to leave the room.

WTF?

I seriously had to go sit in the bathroom and bawl for a minute.

That's all.

Happy Friday!

p.s. Why, when I went to find the YouTube video of the commercial did I torture myself by watching most of it again? At least the sound was off on my computer.

Really?

Thanks, very nice of you.

First, check my

Amazon.com wishlist

and there's no need to worry that I already have it or won't use it.

Tip: Check around for better pricing. Amazon's pricing is usually good, but not always the best available.

A quick Froogle search can't hurt.
