No More Drama

Okay, I titled this post "No More Drama" because that is what I wish I could have with my arch nemesis. There has been this ongoing struggle between me and this force of nature that wants the freedom to do whatever it wants to do, whenever it wants to do it- yes, I am talking about my HAIR!!!

ARGH!!! I have tried a myriad of options (fried, dyed and laid to the side) and I'm just at my wits end! Split ends would be a more accurate description. Over the years I've been a devout beauty shop patron but time, space and other complications have caused me to become inconsistent. My biggest problem -with life in general- is that I have NO PATIENCE whatsoever. When I go to the salon and my appointment is at 4:00, I expect that no later than 4:07 you are tending to me in some shape, form or fashion. I do not wish to sit for almost an hour listening to you gossip or watch you eat and all the while you're complaining about being behind?!

Serious work ethic issues. . .anyway, I've been doing the "natural" thing lately where I just wash and go, literally. My hair curls up and is reminiscent of Ola Ray! Ha ha!

What I really wish I could do is just cut it all off. . .a mini 'fro would be ideal. But working in the corporate establishment trying to represent the race makes me a little hesitant. I just hope one day me and my hair can call a truce and work together for the good of all mankind.

Hit it India!

The Eyes Have It

Aging, lack of sleep, stress and heredity have me looking a little racoonish from time to time. Not to mention I have enough extra skin under my eyes to be considered the original Bag Lady. However because I wear glasses I am able to camouflage the madness. . .sometimes. I usually take my glasses off right before I take a photo because the glare on the glasses makes them look a little THICK (such vanity) but when I look at the photos I think I would have been better off leaving the glasses on.

So, I broke down purchased Dr. N.V. Perricone's Advanced Eye Serum from Sephora. I haven't started using it yet but it's supposed to provide amazing results in less than a month. Takes care of puffiness, discoloration, hydration and more. I will provide updates and before and after photos once the miracle takes place!
