I am so glad!
Woman in the Middle | June 29, 2012I mentioned before that a friend and I am starting a new writing adventure. We will now be writing a local history column for our daily paper the Press-Enterprise. A couple of weeks ago we had to get our photo taken for the paper and I went all out, getting my hair done and getting a make over at the local Clinique counter. Well, the Press-Enterprise put a good-sized ad in the paper today announcing the new column which starts this Sunday. I am SO SO SO GLAD I went to the hair and make up trouble! I can not put enough SOs in front of GLAD to express how happy I am that I had enough female self preservation sense to fix myself up for that photo. Yes, in an ideal world I would have liked to lose 50 pounds before that photo was taken as well, but that wasn’t going to happen in a week, so hair and make up was the best I was going to do. The picture looked pretty good. They put a sepia tone on it which hid the extra chin nicely (I am going to remember that) and I smiled and looked friendly. I don’t know if I looked like I knew a dang thing about history, but that is for others to decide! Almost makes me want to go put on make up right now. Almost, but not quite. I don’t think I need to look too glamorous to take the bottles and cans to be recycled!
I’m interested in seeing the pic!!
I read the column sunday, but missed the picture,
They didn’t use my photo with the column, even though they said they were going to….but they said they will be running the ad some more as space permits. As I said, sepia is a good thing!
Cal Poly Pomona sounds just as pretty as the Huntington Library and Gardens. It would be interesting to try the student-grown produce.
Well, maybe not quite Huntington Gardens, but it doesn’t cost you anthing to visit! The produce is nice!
