The power of marketing

Yesterday morning while I was getting ready & blow-drying my hair, Sis walked into the bathroom.

"Wow, Mom. Your hair is really messy today."

"Yup. That's the way it normally looks, because it's curly. Unless I spend time to straighten it."

"Huh."

"You don't like it?"

"Hmmmm... well..."

Last night, then, as she & I were sitting at Bub's baseball game, she looked at my hair again.

"I really like your hair messy like that, Mom."

"You do? I didn't think you liked it messy."

"Well, I was reading in one of your magazines today about a hair stylist whose salon is in HOLLYWOOD. And she says when she fixes her hair, the bigger and messier, the better."

So, thank you, mystery magazine, for making me okay-looking in Sis's eyes! :)
