I Opted For Distraction

This morning my hair was fighting mad! Mr. Husband said I looked like 'The Heat Mizer,' from an old, but popular Christmas cartoon.

At 5:30 a.m., I was planning, plotting and pondering what to do, with this stuff on my head called hair. It's Homecoming week on campus, I could get away with a ball cap, and polo shirt, both with the school's mascot.

After taking my son to school, something finally came to me. I could either dress to accent my hair, or dress to distract attention away from it. But how was I to do either?! Time was running out, it was 20 minutes and counting before I had to leave for work.

On a whim I thought about calling in sick. I couldn't do that either. Tonight is Coronation, and my daughter is singing the 'National Anthem.' I can't show up on campus later, after being "sick," all day.

Dashing into the closet like Super Man, into a phone booth, I emerged dressed to distract. I put on slacks, a nice dressy sweater, and boots. I curled my hair, as much as two minutes would allow, making sure crucial sections were curled. I was out the door and headed to work, on time.

This trying to grow my hair out is For.The.Birds! I don't know why I agreed to it! As soon as my stylist can fit me in, it's back to my pixie do.

I know you didn't think I'd actually post a picture of my hair now did you?! HA!

Help - My Hair Is Mad!!!

My bad hair day lapsed into a bad hair week, and now it’s just mad as hell. Now I don’t know what to do with it.

I’d cut it all off and start over if my husband wouldn’t complain. A few years ago, I was preparing for knee surgery. Didn’t know what to expect, so I prepared for the worse. Doing so, I got my haircut… all off! My son literally had more hair than I did. I didn’t even need a brush. It actually looked good. I wore make up and earrings at all times, rocking it. My husband on the other hand, was not a fan of the baldhead. He said I looked like a little boy from behind, and that wasn’t cool.

Getting a touchup after scratching your scalp is a not a good idea, ever! It will set your soul on fire, and leave your scalp seriously scarred. I’ve gotten by all week with bad hair. What I’m going to do with this mad hair tomorrow is a mystery. Tonight I will pray for a miracle!
