Nothin' like a Montana Spring

Nick and I had the pleasure of driving 7hrs Friday after work (3:30pm) to Big Sky, MT for a glorious day of skiing. Spring skiing has never been so wonderful. Even though the wind and the temperature (12 degrees) felt like January, the 4 inches of brand new powder clouded that fact. Nick's sister, Libby, won two nights in a condo in Big Sky. This condo was three times the size of our house, with heated floors. Needless to say, we did anything but rough it. Oh just look at the pictures...I don't feel like typing anymore.

It's hard to complain when this is the view...

So I am impatient....whats the big deal?

I am not sure that being impatient is the same as being impulsive but I definitely show many signs of both. If I think of an idea or project, I have to do it right then, I can't wait until later, or tomorrow. Most of the time if I wait until tomorrow, I already forgot the project anyways.

Many people know this about me, and just shrug it off. One of my biggest things to be impatient about is my hair. Now any normal person would call and make an appointment then wear ponytails or hats until they could get in. But in my case, if I cannot get an appointment the moment I call, I just do it myself. Now, I know you are thinking, there are so many walk in barbers, why don't you go there? Well because I am picky about who cuts my hair. I went to Studio Galactica in Bellingham, and I go see Kelly here in Spokane. But the one problem is Kelly is very busy (probably because she is very good), so it usually takes two weeks to get in. My impulses usually don't give me two weeks. So I color it and cut it in my bathroom. I know I am not a professional, but it's just hair, it grows. Besides who can deny that a $15 cut and color is a great deal. I know our bank account thinks so. So to make a long story short, here is my new cut.....

Sorry for the dear in headlights look, our camera is really slow to take pictures, that is IF it even takes it. So most the pictures I have a funny face, this one just looks SHOCKED! But I cut my bangs shorter, really because my friend Andrea just got hers cut short, and I really liked them , so I cut them short again.

It looks like I am opening my eyes really wide, but I think its just the fact that I am surprised our dumb camera actually took a picture!! This one is where my bangs are swept to the side...this cut is so versatile (insert laugh). But really, I think I like it, and if I decide I don't, it will grow or I will just cut it again...

Anyways, I am really just copying a friends blog because she just did one about her hair, and I read it while I was dying mine last night, so I did it too. I love you Andrea!!

HAPPY ST. PATRICKS DAY!! Drink lots of green beer...
