The Powhatanization...

Oh, the things I do for authenticity.  I dyed my hair.  Yup, you read that right.  It's now a dark brown, thanks to an upcoming gig as a 17th century Powhatan.  Well, it's dark reddish brown, since apparently, it's nearly impossible to dye red hair without the color showing through.  I could have bleached it out first, but I refuse to go THAT far.  The dye is a temporary one, courtesy of Clairol.  It should wash out in about 28 days.  This is the first step in "becoming Powhatan"-- this afternoon it will involve self-tanner (really expensive self-tanner).  And Friday evening sometime, I'll take a henna pen and tattoo myself all up.  I'll be sure to post photos of the "transformation." 

In the end, is the beginning....

As it is with most people, my life goes in phases.  But, what I've noticed over the last few months is that my life phases appear to happen, most often than not, in August.  I was born in August.  New school years start in August (or close enough to it).  Most jobs I've had have started in August, especially those that we the most life-changing.  And, par for the course, another phase in life begins... in August.  A friend suggested that I start a blog about the insanity that is my life, so here I am.  August.  And everything after.
