like going to confession...only more fun!

playing along with mckmama...
~

to begin with

i most certainly did not

stay in my pajamas ALL day yesterday...

cause how gross is that?

i also did not carry around a certain

white trash bag and dispose of toys and toy parts

that i am sick of picking up, stepping on, or asking 'what is this?'

nope,

i would never do such a thing.

i did not take a 2 hour nap in the middle

of both weekend days,

really,

how lazy would that be?

a hairy situation

sorry, couldn't help myself with the title
i was tagged by my blog friend kathleen
i have been asked to reveal my worst
hair cut!
lord, there have been so many, where to begin?

let's see...
most recently, i got a trim
and apparently, she cut my hair blind folded or something
got home and one side was literally an inch longer than the other
hard to hide when it is framing your face!
i tucked it behind my ears for a week until she could get me in to fix it
she was speechless when she saw it
she should have been!

let's dig back deeper
5th or 6th grade
cyndi lauper was my idol
attended catholic school
so no way in hell i could dress like her!
next best thing? have her hair!
i got it cut short on one side and left it longer on the other
on purpose this time!
i am pretty sure no photos exist
and i am quite certain that my mom let me do it
knowing i'd soon return to rectify the situation
i hated it
it was only a matter of days and i got it cut
what was i thinking?

okay, and somewhere in between cyndi lauper and a few months ago...

is this less than stellar decision!

1991

middle of the big hair craze

i had the double whammy

short big hair

and i love how the photog decided to accentuate it with the back light

lovely

and what is with the look on my face?

come on, don't be afraid...share you're worst hair moment!
