Southern Discomfort / A minor marital vignette

A minor marital vignette

[L: Me with newly red-ified hair; R: shadow of husband taking picture. One of our stranger portraits together.]

Proof my husband hates me:

He recorded “Bait Shop,” starring Bill Engvall and Billy Ray Cyrus, on the DVR.

Proof my husband loves me:

Only five minutes into its playback, even he had to acknowledge it was so desperately, irredeemably bad that he deleted it.

This might also explain why, even when I am flipping him off, I am also smiling.

Your hair is beautiful! LONG LIVE LONG HAIR! :)

(And yes, love the color.)

Having come to your blog from Twitter, it dismays me to find, in the comments no less, that you are a great big liar, liar, pants on fire. You are no more 38 than I'm thirty... um.... [redacted]. From this picture and the flip off one, I was sure you were in your twenties and plan to continue operating under this delusion.

Aw, you're so sweet! (And I'm not 38, it's true. I'm pushing 38. I will be 38 in 3 months and 8 days. Not that I'm counting!.)

But hey, I understand necessary delusions. I am, after all, using Vampire Red to cover up the silver and gray, so... um yeah. :)

I get the feeling this photo doesn't quite do justice to the blood-red-ness of the hair coloring. I was imagining a more Hammer-vampire-Christopher-Lee-with-SpaghettiOs-on-his-mouth sort of shade.

Ha! Well, my hair is naturally pretty dark, so the areas where the dye seeps in the most are where the gray streaks and split ends are. (Why yes, this is how I cope with pushing 38!)
