Can you believe it?Only another blonde junky will understand this.
Biff and I still think it's not the right "me blonde".SO self absorbed ....that's what some may say. Unless you know the Blondie/Foodie/Druggie/Drinky/Sweety/Shoppy/Gambly obsessions some may see this as shallow, narcissistic, needy being! Not true. At least not all of it's true. Give me a chance. I am "NEEDING to be ablonde "BEING."
Please remember that in every aspect of my life I have OCD....."OBSESSIVE COLOR DISORDER" and ADHD,"A DECENT HAIR DAY"
The morning after!
H'mmmmm....... Ahhhhhhhh NOT! After picking up Grace and a friend at school....and both of the girls were so shocked to see me.....T.J. was befuddled when he saw the new, not so improved, me!
It was when Biff arrived home. after his flight across the country, that was my tipping point. He was shocked! "You look like the lady who sat across me on the plane!" He reminded me of my "happy hair" as we called it....I agreed. BUT it was one in the morning. Off to sleep. Every time I had to pass by a mirror I looked. It was like my evil twin!
This morning Biff and I laughed when I picked my head up off the pillow! I was the other woman! I called my hair salon.....and took my shower to try to wash it back!!! No chance. I had to wait until one thirty....and manage to steer clear of the mirrors!

oops.
Computer confusion. I was reading my blog from last year. Somehow, I have moved the January 27th blogpost to today. Oops.
Barbie
Woo Hoo! My Barbie pink laptop is back! Barbie has been around the world and back....kind of typical of the "real" Barbie. Barbie turned 50 a while ago. "Naturally" it's time for Barbie to check in somewhere and have a little nip and tuck or Botox! For my Barbie laptop, a new keyboard was just what the doctor ordered. Just like any perfect Barbie, it's the outsides that count. Appearances. My "real" Barbies had great clothing and accessories, cars and even Ken.
Ahhhh Ken, the quintessential pretty boy! Nope, not for me. Ken just didn't do it for me. Too "plastic"....not my type...icky. And just like Ken, a little too stiff for me. Too contrived....like one of those Sears Catalogue types....frozen in place in the ol' tying his shoelace pose.
Pose. That's the word. Posers. I just learned that word last year. It still cracks me up. Even Grace and T.J. are on to posers....anyone who's trying to hard to drop names...of schools, accomplishments, connections, clothing. Barbie and Ken were posers! That's what I knew way back when....way before I knew the term.
I always preferred Midge, Barbie's younger sister.
Midge seemed less uptight. Her style. Her clothing. Wait....who was Midge's boyfriend? Or was she a woman who could handle herself...without a guy. Maybe Midge learned how to be on her own and take care of herself....before glomming onto the guy...like Barbie. Maybe Barbie didn't hang on. Grace and T.J. would call the "hanger onners" of today, "tools."

Boo sleeping at my feet while I get to work on my "Barbie" computer (pink laptop)....finally! Barbie has been to the spa for a sort of Botox treatment....so Barbie to have to be perfectly nipped
and tucked...my Barbie needed a keyboard replacement. Who knows... the "real" Barbie is over 50 now.....she might need a knee replacement and an AARP card!

This morning the kids had a youth connection in town ...to talk about high school kids' issues. peer pressure. why some kids do drugs and drink and their opinions or ideas how to change our town and ideas of what we can do to make them feel more connected.
My favorite kind of table.......for the youth talk......paper, markers, pretzels, popcorn and. candy.
