The weekend was pretty good. On Saturday the three of us headed out to Montclair for my hair appointment. Back when I was pregnant the color I had (red) faded to a dark blonde and I was cool with that. Now that I am no longer pregnant and my hormones aren't all wonky anymore (well, for the most part anyway) my hair has decided that it wanted to fade to brown. While there are certain people I think brown looks amazing on (like my Mom), I don't like how it looks on me. I also realized I had been getting that same red color done for about a year and wanted to change things up a bit. I got to the salon at 11am. First they put stuff on my hair to take all the color out. Then that was washed out and my hair was given a series of conditioning treatments to make sure it didn't get damaged. My hair was dried and filler was put on it to add back in some warmth. That was washed out and my hair was dried again. Then the color was put on, washed out, I had my ends trimmed, and my hair was dryed and styled. Six hours later (around 5pm) I walked out of the salon with a gorgeous golden blonde color. I absolutely love it. Margie will never cease to amaze me with her hair coloring skills. I love the color and my hair didn't end up damaged at all. I think this is one of the best colors I've been and when I asked her what she'd put me to if I just came in at some point and told her to give me my ideal color, she said this would be it. So yeah, I love this color and if was definitely worth a day in the salon. Gabriel was very well behaved the entire time.

After our trip to the Salon we headed to Lionheart. They didn't have the book in that Rob wanted, but he got some minis. We had just found out that they were closing down in the middle of May and wanted to stop by and say hi to Lenny. We're hoping to stop by once more before they close if it's possible. This sucks. Lionheart is the best game store I've ever been to and they're closing. Ugh. I am not happy about this at all.

From there we headed to Babies R us for some baby items. Rob took Gabriel in the back room to feed and change him while I did the shopping. After I had purchased everything and loaded up the trunk he was done with Gabriel's feeding so we just headed out and went to dinner at Golden China. As always, their food was great. After dinner we did some diaper and foodage for the baby in the backseat of the car and then headed out.

On the way home we made a brief stop at the ATM in Claremont, filled up the car with gas (I'm not even going there right now), and made a stop at the Game Zone (which is decidedly less cool than Lionheart) to pick up the D&D book that Rob was looking for. When we got home we watched some TV, got Gabriel ready for bed, and then passed out.

Sunday we both slept in. Granted, there were times in the night when we woke up, but we just went right back to bed then. Both of us really needed sleep and while there's no way we can make up for what we're missing in one night, it did feel good to keep being able to go back to bed. We decided to just spend Sunday inside the apartment. We washed up some towels for the guest bathroom and some other random towels we had used for Gabriel. We gamed a bit, ordered in Chinese food, and went to bed at a decent time.

This morning Rob decided to take public transportation in to work. Not only because of the skyrocketing gas prices, but also because traffic was going to be a nightmare because of the protests that are going on in LA today. My morning so far has been a combination of both good and bad. The good being the fact that Gabriel hasn't spent much time crying (though I'm sure that will change now that I typed that) for no reason. The bad being the fact that he threw up and wet through his diaper while in his fish swing. While he's easily cleaned up and changed, the fish swing isn't. I took the seat off and tossed in in the wash. I'm sure it will come out fine, but while it's being washed and dried Gabriel will not be happy because he can't use the swing. Uh-oh. The swing is what usually makes him happy and quiet. On the bright side it looks like Rob might be getting off early from work today and my Mom will be out here tomorrow. Salvation at last!

TYPE M
You scored 91 imagination, 58 confidence, 41 dominance, and 41 generosity!

You are a KINKY, CONFIDENT, SUBMISSIVE lover who prefers to RECEIVE. This means that: You like relatively kinky sex, and you have the great imagination that will always keep your partner guessing and excited! There's no getting bored with you around, you could never settle for dull sex, you want something fun and new all the time. You aren't afraid to try out anything you hear about. You might just be an intelligent lover who needs to be mentally engaged, or perhaps you have some dirty dark secret kinky desires, but either way, you're never boring. You are pretty confident in bed. This means that you know you can please your lover. Maybe you've read a lot of sex manuals, or have the experience from previous lovers, or just tend to be skilled at whatever you get your hands on, but you're good and you know it. You can really get results and know that you have pure talent, so you won't be hiding away shy, pretending to be all innocent. Your partners love your naughty self assurance, you don't hesitate and this makes you a sensational lover. You tend to be submissive in bed, so you prefer to go along with what your lover likes rather than your own plans. You might like being ordered around and acting out a slave/master fantasy, or perhaps you just get turned on by being helpless and unable to move. Or maybe it's as simple as you lacking courage so prefering firm instructions in bed to make sure you are doing things right. Either way, you won't be dominating your lover anytime soon, and might prefer the missionary position to any others. You would rather Receive than Give. This usually applies more to Oral sex than anything else, and other types of foreplay. This could be for a number of reasons. Maybe you are just very hooked on the sensation of orgasm, maybe you feel you deserve to be treated like a god/goddess, maybe you just aren't confident about your skills when it comes to returning the favour. Maybe you are lazy. Or maybe your partner loves to give and that suits you fine, so everyone is happy. Either way, remember to be a giver sometimes too, as long as your partner likes it. WE SUGGEST YOU TRY: Being Blindfolded and even tied up with scarves, and letting your partner tease, tickle and delight you, in the most tempting way. You are confident and imaginative enough to not mind them doing all sorts of fun things to you, surprises and frustratingly out of your reach pleasure. Just lay back and enjoy, and maybe you can return the favour, maybe not.

What's your sexual style?
