Work2
This one has alot of pictures. DISCLAIMER: I did ok this blog with my boss. No big, go ahead. This is the park across the street from my house. It's not big, but it's nice.
I live in the Fairmount District off Magnolia. Also known as Coolsville. Also known as Former Ghetto. Also known as Hospital District. This is just a shot out my car window of the only so-so mexican restaurant Benitos. Not my fav. But so-so.
There's some road work going on by King Tut's. Road work is my life as we'll later learn.
I have never been here. It makes me feel at home though. Probably the word "Home"on the sign.
This was a blessed mistake. That's my current haircolor - yellow,orange, red. Fire.
This is the first time I bought gas under $2.00 as of late. Well, this is first time in almost 5 years? I think so. 
Pier one building? Or condo? I don't know. $1.85, woot!
This is my current sound system in my car -- Zune hooked to headphones hooked to me. CD player pooped out on me :(
Taking 7th street in, which will soon be the new "downtown" or "Ft Worth Victory Park" if you will. Construction sequence soon to follow. 
Driving over the river. Glory. 
The first 7th Haven location. They're in their 3rd. For a while there was a sign on this building saying, "Future Location of the Black Dog." This never came to fruition and haunts me every day.
Hauntgomery Plaza. Montgomery Plaza. Want-strawberry Pizza. Plant Hominy Pasta.
Montgomery Plaza rules my life. Glorias. Target. Ross. Starbucks. Subway. Sallys. Pet Smart. Office place.
A view down 7th. Across from that Carroll st stoplight is the 3rd locale of 7th Haven. And Foch St (my work st) is located at big construction building #1.
Construction sequence as follows.
Down Foch. Dirty Foch.
It rained. Messy Foch.
Wet Foch. 
Foch Blocked. 
Gang bang. I mean construction workers helping Foch regain it's confidence through destructive behaviours.
The Salounge.
The first thing seen when entering the salon. If I'm not working. Ale and Kristin, having a serious discussion I'm sure.
Kristin is working the phone. And by working it I mean, she's working it.
Our Bed Head buy one get one free make-up. Interested?
Afternoon view. Loverly.
Some products. I'm a fan of the Sebastian. But Pureology is vegan.
Party Paparazzi
Paparazzi. Vanessa. Assistant.
Paparazzi. Angela. Assistant.
Color wall.
Color tubbb.
These are the cool funky fun colors persons will most likely see in my hair.
My goal is to be all pink again by summer 09.
I drew this staff photo of us on paint. This really is spot on for an MS paint portrait. Not trying to brag, but I have a talent for MS applications. Makin t-shirts.
Our slogan? No, just our stickers.
Misha. This was not a party paparazzi. She posed for this for a while. And I think this picture reminds me of the next one...
A box of heads. 
Ale is cool. Celso is cool too. He does my hair. They are talking about football. Just kidding. They are talking about guns. Just kidding. They are talking about their feelings. 
The cupcake from J Raes. Bakery next door. Amazing. They bring us free stuff alot. Like this cupcake. 
JT. For when you're having a bad day. I almost typed JTT. I wish.
The 10-key. For cool kids. 
Laura. Reading Maxim. Waiting for a haircut. She works here too, this is not a client.
Kristin about to leave. Kristin and I are both crazy cat ladies. We learned very early on.
The rest of the free cupcakes from J Raes. Yummmmmmm for reals.
The cool fiber optic light in the salon/bar. It lights up and spins and is beautiful.
The dj booth, host of spinners, people that spin things, djs, and lots of complicated equipment I won't begin to try and learn to use.
Working.
This cat is too cool for laser or bubble jet printers. It's an all-in-one all the way, baby. This print job's so bright, he has to wear shades.
My nacho's from Chimy's, the love of my adult life. And the hand that bit the hand that fed it....Vanessa. 
I look at this screen for most of my life.
Yes, we're open. Despite the construction, we're open!!
Evening view.
I discovered that I need to get new jellies.
And that is all that happened until...
The night view.
Sometimes this is what I do when we run late. Don't think this is all I did this night. It wasn't. But I did find time to peruse the household decorations section of urbanoutfitters.com.
So lonely. Jk, but I feel like some Hank Williams or Patsy Cline song should be playing while I slowely walk out the back door.
The long and lonely strip mall esque outside hallway.
Foch Alley. No, I'm serious. But it's kind of pretty at night. That's Chimy's it's the best.
Goodnight Construction. Good night Bulldozer. Good night Crane. Goodnight thing that hits the ground really hard and breaks the cement. Goodnight construction workers who always want to turn off our water when we have chemicals processing on peoples hair. Good night cupcakes. Goodnight saying, "Esoterica, This is Sage."
That's not a typical day. It was a poetic one. Oh, also, watch this!
