Definitely go to a salon - it is likely that the highlighted pieces will take the color differently than the rest of your hair. [ Reply | More

[ - ] Anyone every work on Capital Hill? Full disclosure, I'm cyberstalking an ex boyfriend. He married a woman who is "Chief of Staff, U.S. Senate". Sounds fancy. Is that a high falutin' job?

NP - it's amazing - you have so much space, you nver have to delete anything, and you never lose anything because you can search for emails, if you remember one word out of the mail, you'll find it. Tagging instead of filing, so an email can be in several categories at once, and emils are grouped in "conversations" so that if you sent out a group email, whoever replies to you or to everyone, the email stays in a "bunch" with the others so you can follow the whole conversation [ Reply | More

you're in the "maintenance" phase, I think...
