looking forward to: just one moment at a time. trying not to look back or forward.

I usually do some sort of tribute to autumn with my hair - a few shades of reds/apricot. The company I'm with is a bit more conservative than where I've worked before. Gotta figger out how to have the hair I want without making the vp's nervous.

I love that. One of our VP's actually had fuschia highlights in her hair. Very cool. Apparently we aren't that conservative - at least when it comes to hair. We have gotten the whole "work casual" doesn't mean sloppy. Good to converse in type with you Beth. Been missing you!

I was definitely glad to see that your puter woes seemed to be over - missed MissMe.

((Beth)) good to be back
