I almost forgot about "them"

Another funny thing from my trip down to help my mom with her thumb that I forgot about until I was messing with my hair this morning.

I had been shampooing my hair twice during my shower every day (way more than usual) to try to get the remainder of the blue out of my hair prior to going in to have my roots bleached. I missed the blond hair while it was blue, but I liked the blue as well.

So while I am putting the gel in my hair one morning I say something to my mom about the hair appointment I had scheduled. She says, "I am glad you're getting your hair done again. 'They' don't like the blue."

I smirked at her and said, "Oh, 'they' don't, do they? Well you can tell 'them' that I may well do it again so they're going to have to get over it."

Like I give a crap what three little middle aged biddies in Ohio think of my hair.

Which is actually funny considering that "little old blue haired ladies" is a particular stereotype of the midwest...

They haven't gotten to that point yet, but my mom (who I know is part of "they" even if she tries to deny it) has the same perm she's had since I was in grade school. My aunt, MAB#2 has the same butt length straight hair that she's had since I was a baby, though she did add bangs sometime in the early 90's I believe. MAB#3 is either an opinionated friend of theirs who looks like one of the Judds circa 1995, or it's my uncle who got his fashion sense from "Golfers Garage Monthly" so they all have no right to judge... They never saw it in its full blue beauty, they only saw the faded out pool water stage, which admittedly did look a little on the gross side. I did as much as I could to keep it looking shiny and cool, but there's only so much you can do when your hair looks like you feel asleep in someone's swimming pool.

I'm much happier now that it's all one color again.
