Mer and I colored our hair today. I'm auburn, and she's more brown with a hint of red. Hurray for mommy-daughter dye time! If I can manage a picture that doesn't make me want to weep, I'll post it so you can see my ginger glory.
Her indoor soccer games start tonight. The game's at 9:00. She's got to be there at 8:30 and it's about half an hour away. So, I'll be gone from around 8:00 until after 10:00. I considered sending her on her own, but truthfully, I like watching her play and indoor soccer is great. There's no out-of-bounds, it's very fast paced and just a kick to watch. Mer may ask to play keeper part of the time, to get back in practice. It looks like she'll be the keeper for the varsity team this spring, barring any surprises with her grades. The varsity coach sought her out yesterday to ask her to come to conditioning on Monday. He's bringing on a trainer for her, apparently. She hasn't played goal in a few seasons, but she used to be a pretty good keeper. The one season she was solely in goal, her team went undefeated. So, she needs to bone up again.
She also still needs to get her sports training hours completed in the next two weeks, I think. She has to assist the trainer for 9 hours a quarter, and I don't think she's done any since football ended. Will have to remind her about that. I know she has a gymnastics meet scheduled and something else, but I think she'll need at least one more. I'm not sure why she hasn't done it sooner, she likes it.
Um... That's about it, I guess.
ETA: Shocking realization. It would seem I missed the last couple inches of hair in back. Not sure how I managed this. Must buy more dye and fix. Bugger.

Your shocking realization made me smile. You're so funny. :)

My shocking realization made me groan, mostly, although I definitely saw the humor in it. I've been assured that it's not really noticable. The color just fades toward the ends. So, I haven't fixed it yet. Probably over the weekend.

Trei would die. He loves indoor soccer. The closest place to us is an hour away, though, and that doesn't go well with getting off from work and getting to practices during the week. We would never make it. :(
Good luck to Mer!
*giggles* about y'all's hair. That is so sweet. Can't wait for the pics! :D

I am thinking of becoming a redhead.
What do you think?
I love you.
I miss you.
Email, write, or just get on AIM!

Re: Red Hair. I think you'd look good with a light red, like a strawberry blonde. I'd worry that a darker red or auburn like I've just done would wash you out since your coloring is so delicate.
I love and miss you, too. I do need to send you mail. I've been such a slacker about that sort of thing lately. Do you have YIM? I'm on there a lot because of Caliga, but I don't spend much time on AIM anymore. I'm KateinVA both places. *cuddles* And I'm totally down with you roadtripping to VA now that you've got your license. Just give me enough warning that I can try to put my apartment in some kind of order. (Ha!) It would be Emmie/Kate party time!

I did, but it kept freezing and then would freeze up my FULL computer.
Talk about annoying! So, if we can't talk on AIM then you just need to send me a weekly email about your life, so that I can stay in touch, and I promise to do the same for you.
