Sign of the Times

In 2 months and 6 days, I will be 30. Woo hoo.

I don't think I mentioned it, but one reason for getting my hair highlighted was to help hide the gray. A couple of weeks ago, I noticed that the most time consuming part of getting ready to leave the house was the plucking out of gray hairs.

Imagine my dismay as I was toweling off after my shower tonight and spotted 2 of those gray things living happily on my coochie. For Pete's sake, I'm just not ready for a gray coochie. I yanked those suckers out and I will be shearing the whole area tomorrow.

I apologize if this was TMI but I had to tell somebody.

Holy cow... I'm half-way to 31 and I'm starting to notice odd things here and there too. Like hairs where you DON'T want them. At ALL!

Ugh.

grey hair is NO indication of age anyway. I am forty ... and ... a couple ...
and I have two grey hairs on my head.
half a dozen grey eyebrow hairs and you do not want to know where the other 2 or 3 are.
I'm sure one day I'll wake up and my head will have just turned, but so far ....
look how cute you are htere with your doggies :)

Gray hairs are no problem for a woman. You can easily shave your girly parts and color your hair. Guy's on the other hand just go bald. And my "manly bits" have hand to many close encounters with a zipper to ever be near a razor.

Fortunately, there is nothing gray on me yet.

The Phosgene Kid - Okay, you do have a good point!

Amy - Oh yeah, I've seen some of that too. Love my tweezers!

MV - I didn't even think about my eyebrow hairs changing. Rats. I better get ready to dye those. It is nice that my doggies still like me!

MCB - Ouch. If I had manly bits instead of girly ones, I'd probably keep sharp things away from it too.

Tragic - I'm not a chocolate fan today but a cheeseburger did help :)

Pixie - You lucky dog, you!

Bex - For some reason, I don't think 40 is gonna bother me as much as 30. I could be wrong though. At 25 I almost had a mental crackdown. I'm having a problem with growing old gracefully.

Joey Polanski - How could I tell? Because they were smiling!

Al - I know it is better than the alternative...

Chickie said...

Bekah - It's Duce that's giving you the gray.

LOL, LOL, LOL..You crack me up, Chickie...BTW: I think your 'treated' hair...on your head, I mean....Looks FABULOUS! It is extremely becoming to you, as they say...
AND, secondly...at 30...you are just starting to really discover who you are and what you are all about---EVERYTHING is all ahead, believe me...And that is not to say you don't know who you are right now....I believe you do...I guess what I'm trying to say is...it all gets better...much much better...You have so much to look forward to my dear Chickie, gray hairs and all...(lol)

Oh, I know what I wanted to ask you..Which HOODIA Supplement are you using? (Did I already ask you this??? Help!) And, is it working?

I haven't found any grey on my head...but since I'm blonde, I likely wont until it's too late. however, I did find some you know, in another place, and I'm really upset. Not that anyone sees or anything...

There's your idea for next week's HNT.

Chickie said...

Bex - At least I have a good 7 years before I start fretting over that one!

Ginamonster - It's just personally upsetting to see them down there. Quite a shock, huh?

Anne Arkham - The intruders have already been evicted.
