talk me down off the ledge, please

I'm sorry but I had a very good laugh. You forget my dear, you are working with bunch of ENGINEERS!! Bunch of social nit wits, a big social ZEROS. Take it with a grain of salt. Remember what HR people have to say about engineers, bunch of socially inept people social IQ is in the single digit.

Around here, engineers without people skills get eaten alive. Please, please, please don't perpetuate the (often incorrect) stereotype.

For some reason, talk of hair color or hairstyles always gets me thinking of The Talking Heads and "Life During Wartime".
"I changed my hairstyle, so many times now, I don't know what I look like!"
Classic!
It also reminds me of the double standard on grey hair in men vs. women.
But then, I just colored my hair the other week, so I'm good for at least another 2 months.

I liked that clip, thanks for posting it!

It confirmed my earlier decision. My grey is staying!

I will admit that I like my hair MUCH better when I'm cleaned up and dressed for work or for something nice...I don't like what it looks like when I've rolled out of bed or after a workout or a swim. That's probably my own concern that I look like I don't care (grey hair + sloppy look) instead of just looking like I'm 'au naturale' as might have been the case when I was younger or still a brunette. I think that speaks to one of the comments in the clip that grey = I-don't-care or I've-given-up on a woman.

This was taken last fall so the style is different now but this gives you an idea (it's lighter now too because I wear it parted the other way and my right side is much whiter than the left side):

I LOVE IT! Don't change it - looks awesome. Looking forward to seeing you in February - gray hair and all!

I absolutely hate the use of ma'm, or sir for that matter. It feels rooted in subservience.

This really sounds more like certain parts of the U.S. I don't mind if somone occasionally calls me "ma'am" if they are trying to get my attention. How else should they flag down my attention if they don't know my name?

GLC, you worry too much. You look chic.

You look fabulous. Quit worrying!

+1! Honestly, you look fabulous. I think the grey is very flattering with your complexion.
