greatest license ever

As promised.

So in middle school I one day realized that my hair was not really blonde anymore but had turned a shade of brown. I was horrified. I had to do something about it. (No, I never stopped to realize that it was the middle of winter and maybe I hadn't been in the pool since August.) I am not sure how I decided on a color, probably went to Long's and found something with a cool name. Infact I am not sure how this story goes at all. Shoot! I may or may not have done the first round while I was babysitting and the kids were asleep so my mom wouldn't catch me. If you remember the story please comment and fill me in. I must have lost brain cells from all the chemicals.

What I do remember is when I decided that keeping up the dye job was a pain. I was told that pigment would have to be added back into my hair first, then it could be died to match the color that it naturally was. And that cost A LOT. As a result I had to wait for it to grow out naturally. I can only assume my mother put up with it because she was trying to teach me a lesson. I am sure she was horrified and embarrassed to walk next to me in public. Imagine that platinum blonde growing out with a consratsing stripe of dark brown running down the middle. I must have looked like a reverse skunk. Luckily by the time this picture was taken the color change line was concealed behind me ear. Luckily? Something like that.

Lets see that one more time.


Yep, me at 16. First drivers license.

Awesome.
