I think YOU are a redhead, no?<BR/>And, yes, I have YOU to thank for ever finding "the other Jenn" in the first place. Wow. This blogosphere is a neat place!<BR/><BR/>Mimi-<BR/>Thanks for the reminder. I have had this on my TO DO list for several weeks and didn't get it done yet. I will make it a priority. I would SO like to represent The Netherlands on this day! <BR/><BR/>Jennifer-<BR/>(or may I say Jenn?)<BR/>Welcome! I am so glad that after my intense stalking of your blog you came round here anyway to share some thoughts. Sorry about the gray hair brigade. That sucks. You can bet I would have been HUGELY sympathetic to the discovery. :) <BR/>I love your blog. I love your writing.

Thanks so much for finding my blog and actually reading it. I look forward to keeping up with yours.<BR/>As far as the first gray hair experience, I found my first gray hair, which was actually nestled in a batch of SEVERAL gray hairs, on a flight to the US about five years ago. You know how the bathroom on the plane has the groos unforgiving neon green light, which magnifies every pore and bloodshot vein... I pushed my hair back and there they were, an army of grays hiding out in the blonds. I ran back to my seat and told my husband, who chuckled and went back to sleep.<BR/>I spent the rest of the flight contemplating my own mortality.jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14511174413208544186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9100513347252567500.post-51620181463056717412007-05-28T03:01:00.000+02:002007-05-28T03:01:00.000+02:00P.S.

I understand a wee bit of how you feel - obviously tho I've never been an ocean away from mine, so the magnitude of it must be overwhelmeing to you. And on top of that the grief that you must be experienceing. I really am sorry.<BR/><BR/>I'm excited to hear of your fun visit you'll have with your friend. That should be loads of fun -- and books!! I love new books.<BR/><BR/>You must write all about the visit. <BR/><BR/>You go girl ! - on your hair cut and color! I would so do that - (and have done it). It is liberating.<BR/><BR/>I do not know yet the rest of my grades.. thanks for HOLDING FISTS :)<BR/><BR/>Take care!!!Shelbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02757079675613448834noreply@blogger.com
