Miles to Go Before I Sleep

September 19, 2011 By Laura

6666 Miles.

 

That’s how many miles I earned last month on Delta.  Should I be concerned?!  LOL!

Also, there appears to be a tread of rocking chair in airports.  The above is in St. Louis.  I’ve also spotted them in Charlotte.  Weird – more so for St. Louis than Charlotte, I think.

 

 

No blogging for the weekend.  Saturday was a busy day – I drove up to see my stylist and get a new ‘do for Italia.

 

It’s red.  It’s shorter than I’ve ever had it (I usually keep some length in the front).  I LOVE it.  I love my stylist, Karen.

 

Karen is the owner of Lava Hair Salon.  She used me in a couple of ads than ran recently!

 

The thing about red dye is that it runs if you get your hair wet too soon after getting it done.  Today I took it upon myself to serve as a warning for those of you who are planning to go red.

 

6 mile run post-dye job.  I looked like I just killed someone.  No wonder people were staring as I ran by!  LOL!

 

 

I also spent some QT with my credit card.  While I was at the outlet mall, I HAD to buy a new Coach bag for the trip…

 

Did you celebrate Talk Like a Pirate Day this weekend?

In honor of this very special day I want to profess my love for a new (to me) product:

Pirate’s Booty.  Veggie flavor.

 

How did it take me so long to try this?!

____________________________________________________________________________________

Not quite as many days on the road, but I did take a rest day.  Those late-night flights make it hard to fit a workout in! Plus my body was feeling a little road-weary.

    Your hair looks cute! Short hair totally works for you. I’ve tried to cut mine, let’s just say curly short hair is a little harder to manage.

    I’m assuming you’ve seen the movie Up in the Air? I always think of it when you talk about all the business travel that you do.

      Thank you! I did see that movie… it reminds me of my boss. 🙂

    Ha! (Oh, I mean, ARR!) I posted about TLPD, too! Love it. I’ve never tried the Pirate Booty before, though I want to. Love the red and the new ‘do! Craziest color I’ve done? Probably purple. It was SUPPOSED to be auburn, but sometimes those boxes….I ended up going over it in black and now I don’t go near the boxes anymore. 🙂

    Sweet hair! That’s also really awesome about being on the ad. The pics are smokin’ 😀

    Love the color red on you!
    And the best part of my weekend was finding my wedding reception outfit! 🙂
    And when I was younger my mom would bleach our hair with facial bleach (all my friends were doing it) so we could have highlights. One time (the last time) we kept it on too long so I had bright orange streaks in my hair. Not good!

    LOVE the red!! It seriously looks so good! I usually go to Vivid in Virginia Highlands when I’m in your neck of the woods. Maybe I’ll try Lava next time!

      It’s in Dawsonville… but you can make a day of it and go outlet shopping! (Hence the Coach bag. 🙂 )

    Heheh I’ll never forget the time I dyed my hair red when I was 12/13 and I went out in the rain at breaktime at school and it dripped all down my face my friends were freaked out haha

    1. You’re so gorgeous.

    2. Love the cut. It fits you PERFECTLY! So awesome.

    3. The fact you posted sweaty dye-drip post-run makes me love you all the more. 🙂

    Love that color on you!

    I tried to go “golden blonde” last fall and turned out orange – which had to be corrected by going DARK blonde – won’t be trying that again! 😉

    • Laura says

      September 19, 2011 at 11:10 PM

      I have done that same thing – I tried to go from dark to blonde and turned my hair FIRE orange. It was the last time I attempted dying my own hair. 🙂

  14. Alexa @ Simple Eats says

    You look SO pretty with red hair! I love it! I wish I had the guts to try a different color!

  15. Emmy (Wine and Butter) says

    September 19, 2011 at 5:09 PM

    Ha ha!! I did the same thing when I went running after a spray tan – way to waste £25 looking STREAKY!!! the cut looks awesome though – and go you being featured in the advert!! xox

    I LOVE your hair!! I wish I could pull off something so spunky..but short hair just doesn’t work for me. :/

  17. Hannah says

    September 20, 2011 at 12:44 AM

    Squeee! That hair is AMAZING!!! I want to steal it and stick it on my head, but that wouldn’t work, I don’t think.

    Love the red hair! I go between dark brown, red and light brown with blonde highlights 🙂

    Fabulous new do, darling! Can’t go wrong with red. Of course, I may be a bit partial 😉 I don’t know how you manage to stay fit and positive while on the road. I’m fixing to take a trip myself and i’m going to keep thinking: what would Laura do? I know she wouldn’t eat the sbarro pizza and drink four cups of coffee in the Miami terminal…

    By the way, I’ve given you an award over on Deep Dish 🙂

      It helps that travel has become as ordinary and changing underwear… it’s just something I do. 😉

      That Sbarro smell is always tempting though…

    Welcome to the world of redheads! We really have the most fun. 🙂

    Have you tried the BBQ Booty? I love that one. There is a pizza flavored one that I’m not sure I will like…but it makes me think of pizza-flavored Combos and that sort of makes me happily nostalgic in a “oh how i loved overly processed foods” kind of way. [And sometimes still do?]

    • Laura says

      September 20, 2011 at 10:32 AM

      Veggie was my first flavor… BBQ is next on the list now! 🙂

      I’m with you on the pizza flavor… I’m not a fan of pizza flavoring. Except on pizza.
