UGH!!!!

After I got out of the shower today I reached for my hair dryer and tried to turn it on only to realize that it had died. (It did last 5 years of almost everyday use, so I guess I can't complain too much!) So I headed off to Tar.get to buy a new one with sopping wet hair. I just knew someone from a "make-over" show was going to be there ready to scold me for looking so hidious!! But, I was able to make it there and back with no ambush make-over. So by the time I got home my hair was frizzy (thanks to my natural curls). For those who don't know, if you have naturally curly hair, you either dry it as soon as you can so you can forgo the frizz, or let it dry on it's own and throw it up in a clip. There's no salvaging air-dried hair with the hopes of having it look decent down and curly. It will end up down and frizzy (well my hair is anyway). So my choices were to rewash it to get my pretty, frizzless curls back, or dry it, flat iron it and go with straight hair. Today is a fairly humidity-free day, so I went with the latter. J will be so shocked. I never wear my hair straight because, 1.) we live in a very humid area of the US, and naturally curly headed people end up with frizzy hair the second they step outdoors, 2.) it takes too freaking long to dry it and flat iron it, 3) it shows way more gray than I'd like to world to know I have, and 4) I look better with full hair, and when I flat iron it, it makes my hair look too thin. J's gonna think he's gotten a new wife...no glasses, 15 pounds lighter and straight hair. Hmmm, could make for an interesting evening!! :o)
