No probably not... but its nice to think so...
2012... its finally here. New Years is always a bust in my mind. The whole resolutions thing is so annoying. I think the one resolution I ever kept was giving up Diet Coke. Although I feel like resolutions are more about lifestyle changes... lent is more about giving up a bad habit. So what... I did give up the Diet Coke habit for years and years and have still only had it once or twice since then. It was a VERY bad habit. Stupid caffeine addiction....
Anyway... in 2012, I decided to not stress about the resolutions. I know I won't really follow through with it. I can make promises to do things... exercise more... get out of the house more... quit stressing so much about the little things... update my blog every once in awhile.... However at the same time.... I know I won't do anything of the sort. What is the point of making empty promises, especially to yourself? I will continue to sit around eating candy, watching netflix, knitting, and playing WoW. I don't mind. That is what I enjoy doing... and isn't that really what reservations are for in the long run? Having fun in life and making yourself feel better... about yourself.
In the interest of new year new me... I have decided to take a leap. I want to be ok with who I am.... and how I look... and the people around me. First step is that I have decided to be ok in my own skin... and HAIR. Thus the big decision... I am going to grow out my natural hair color. Yikes! It has been almost 12 years since I've seen my natural color... I was always blondest blonde... and for the last 7 years or so I have been black. Blackest black. I stopped coloring it a few weeks back... so I have about an inch of natural growth coming out on the top of my head.... and A LOT of a kind of awesome silvery gray in patches.
Due to my hair being so damn fine, I don't want to go through the chemical process of striping the color from my hair. That would just destroy me. So I'm going to let it grow out for a while longer... and then I might just chop my hair off. Drastic change... but more then likely necessary. So the real challenge will be not giving up on this resolution. To ignore the skunk stripe that will be emerging on the top of my head.
In the interest of sharing the process... I will post a picture of myself once every Friday. So here is my version of a picture a day.... but I don't like myself enough to do it every day.... once a week will be QUITE enough I think....
And here's to 2012.... counting down to the Apocalypse.....
