Friday night I had my first GTG (get together) with the Raleigh knotties.  We went to Dos Taquitos for dinner.  It was really nice to meet these girls that I talk to on a regular basis online.  I know it might sound weird, meeting “online” people.  But it was really nice to have a night out with the knotties.

And on a completely unrelated note, I am going to get my hair done tonight.  It has been a while and it’s looking pretty bad.  My roots are brown and my hair is flat and, according to M, dirty looking.  (Thanks hun!)  Tonight I am not only getting highlights but I am also getting low lights.  I hope this looks good and I think it will make the “grow out” process a little smoother.

I started doing highlights because I was tired of having roots all the time.  I thought highlights might be a better option.  But now I have roots from my highlights.  I guess it doesn’t help that it’s been about 10 weeks since I had my last highlights done.  That is a good 3-4 weeks past my normal time frame.  And my hair desperately needs  a cut.  My bangs look crappy and are heavy.  They fall in my face and get on my nerves.  Currently they are pulled back in a barrette.  Yes it’s bad.

I also get to leave work a little early so I can get to my appointment on time!  YAY!  It has been super slow at work lately and while I feel bad reading blogs and knotting there really is nothing else to do.  We are taking over credit soon and I will be the lead on that, so that is good.  I started training this week and it seems pretty easy.  I am familiar with the processes and only needed to learn the details really.  It should be a good change.  And it will give me more experience.  That’s never a bad thing.
