I'd like a Trifecta Box on Three Grey Hairs

This morning I had The Count's voice in my head. One grey hair. TWO grey hairs. THREE GREY HAIRS! I'm only thirty two and I have THREE GREY HAIRS. Possibly more but maybe my eyesight is going and I can't see the rest.

The first one I found I plucked and then cried. The next two I found I left alone and tried to cover in a ponytail. Nothing is working. It's officially the beginning of the end. To add insult to injury I'm going to have to up the visits to the hair salon, which will put a dent in the pocketbook for sure.

I've had the same hair stylist for eight years. He works at the salon that invented the Jennifer Aniston "Friends" do. Last time I was there I sat next to Nicole Ritchie. He's not cheap, but thankfully since I've been seeing him so long he gives me a break on the price. He's a really good guy. Guess I have to make an appointment soon.

So much has happened in the last few weeks. Fourth of July came and went. We spent a lovely day of bbq and fun at our friend's house in Atwater. My bff came down and spent two nights at my house so we got in a little quality time. She and her husband are two of the people we're going to Argentina with. Speaking of which, I finally got our internal flights so we're all set. Five flights in fourteen days is certainly going to be interesting.

Last weekend we headed to Hollywood Park for the last day of horse races. For some reason, I'm really good at betting on horses. Only been twice before and won both times. But since I'm so afraid of losing money I only bet $2 at a time. Well, last Sunday we walked in, grabbed the race list, I picked 3 horses who had the best names and bet $2 on a trifecta box. Won $115.00. Turned out to be a great day at the races despite my slight hangover from dinner with The Marrieds the previous night.

When we left the park I was about $150 up. Just enough to pay for a pizza dinner and balance out my hubbie's $100 loss. Check out some pics below.
