Officially grey
Yesterday at the dog park a little girl (I’m guessing around 6-7) watched Photon go through her tricks repertoire. Eager to come up with something informative about the dog to share, she finally said “Your doggie’s the same colour as your hair.” All I could come up with as a riposte was a rather spluttered “Yes. She is.”

But I’m not changing my blog icon…until or unless I go gorgeously platinum silver, like Miranda Priestly in The Devil Wears Prada. I have to admit I’ve also always had a soft spot for the Cruella de Ville look….
And James—if I could grow polka dots in my hair, I would!
It’s better this way around. Trust me. I started dying my hair to match with my kids. Otherwise people asked if I was the nanny. )-:

I dedicate this short post to Tamiko and Sev, and their dad, who are all in various aspects of the biz. Probably knew this years ago from being so much closer to the research. And a hat tip to pal Erik for this.



But imagine how exotic you’d look if your hair were the same pattern as Photon…
