Project: Bottle Blonde... In Progress

Today is finally here… launch of Project Bottle Blonde. Launch of Fashion Week. To that extent, I’m completely adorable… now, not to be confused with every other day that I am completely adorable, but today is just—special. I don’t know why, exactly. Sometimes you just have a sense of it.

So, at 11:30, I will depart from work, leaving behind all the quality concerns, the testing issues and HIPAA regulations that have been dancing on my schedule all week and take myself to lunch. I have lunch nearly everyday, but today, I’m having it with me. What I mean by this is that I have allowed myself the luxury of being all consumed in my own thoughts and feelings and not the extraneous things that float in and out. It’s kind of like mediating, which I haven’t done in about a week—and am in dire need.

Following lunch will be a much needed and much anticipated hair appointment. Nothing spectacularly different—just catharsis. And then, there is the shopping. Nothing in particular…

…and that is really what Project Bottle Blonde is all about. Nothing in particular, nothing spectacularly different, just a cathartic reconnecting with oneself. Remembering all those things that make us great—and applying it, like you do with bleach to the hair… carefully, with thought and precision and just every so often when the roots are a little to dark to see in the mirror.
