EXTREMELY blonde hair

So I was at Rite Aid a few weeks ago waiting for my prescription to be filled when I came across a bunch of items on clearance. Nothing really that I wanted... and then I saw it! Hair color for 50% OFF! Now if only I could find two boxes of the same color... sure enough I did. However, it is called "Bleach Blonde". So I'm already.. sort of blonde. But that almost orange-ish nasty blonde because I tried to dye my hair from dark brown to blonde, lol. Well I thinking this time is going to go better... but I can already tell it's REALLLLLLY blonde :o/ Only ten minutes to go and we will see... very scared.
p.s. Josh helped :o)

I also got to move my desk to a bigger, sweeter desk at work. Right by the windows too so I won't have to waste break time to watch the wildlife that graces the NCAC :o)

I went to the doctor yesterday to talk about some things... mostly to do with my training. I'm having problems with my knees and he has diagnosed me with Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome, or Runner's knee. How appropriate. It's no biggie though because he gave me some exercises and special stretches to do and I love stretching so that should be easy.
 I've also been having problems with breathing towards the ends of my runs. It feels like I can't take a deep enough breath in, like my lungs won't expand. Well, as I feared, he is pretty sure that I have exercise induced asthma. Which is ok, because that is do-able. I mean what would be the alternative? Something worse I'm sure. He is sending me for a pulmonary test to confirm that which is sweet. I really like my doc because he isn't afraid to BE SURE and order tests. He's very thorough. Any way, I'll be fine. I've never had an "attack" or anything so it's all good. Should help my training.

Speaking of training I suck. I haven't ran for a week! I have a 5 k in less than 2 weeks and the half marathon is just over a month away! What am I doing?! Argh!

Oh, my doc also referred me to a nutritionist. I've been running pretty vigorously for the past 2 months 3,4 sometimes 5 days a week and I'm just gaining weight! And I know it's because of my eating habits. I'm not 14 anymore. *sigh* so depressing. But it's ok. I WANT to eat healthier. I want to be healthy. And I want to kick ass at that marathon in the fall!

Still haven't decided which one. Maybe the Detroit Marathon, because I don't think I'm going to have enough money to go away somewhere. Money is another blog :)

Time to rinse my hair! Wish me luck!

  1. Pretty much all I can say about the hair is... "wow"... I have the urge to throw in a "shit" there too... but it always takes me a few days to decide if I like something or not. I like that it's... different, lol.

  4. lol yea you can tell... it looks pretty fake. I think I need to thin out my eyebrows because they are a lot darker... It's a pretty color, just not sure it's pretty on me.
