Old is a state of mind, right?

This morning I got out of bed.
I know, off to a great start already!  And while I was brushing my teeth I looked in the mirror.
I've learned to look past a majority of the sleepy, wrinkle lines and dark circles to my hair.  And wouldn't you know it - I found a BRIGHT GRAY HAIR right in the middle of my head!  (My first, if you can't tell.)
I promptly plucked it out to make sure it was actually gray and not just the light reflecting weirdly off of a blonde strand. Yep, it was gray.
But yay me, I didn't crawl back into bed - as much as my graying head wanted to.
Now, what color should I go this time?  Stay brown or shoot for some red.  It is fall now, so perhaps some cooler colors might be fun!
And a new cut, too.  Popeye is digging my hair getting longer.  Me? Not so much.  In fact, I loathe my long hair so much that it is a constant thought for me throughout the day.  I should just cut it.  I've made myself a couple of cute hats that a cute little cut would look so great under with the flips coming up over the bottom of the brim. 
Yep.  I think I'll do it.
Suggestions on a style are welcome - but keep in mind that it has to be fairly easy to manage. And I have wavy hair - so no football helmet styles. 
What about this one?

The length is good.  I have some bangs already so those won't be an issue.  Yeah, I kinda like this one.
Thoughts?

Hee hee, I've been thinking about covering my gray too. A little red would look nice on you. And I love that hair cut! You could totally do it.
