I've Had Nothing But Bad Hair Days Since The New Millennium

I don't remember the last good hair day I had.  (No one else does, either.)

However, I offer you this...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

To show you how early we get on that downhill path (no, that's not me; it's just some poor schmuck of a doomed child).

Then here, as we get a bit older...

 

 

 

 

 

You could say it's sorta cute... but you wouldn't want it to be your ONLY hair choice, right?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We get older, and hope our keen sense of fashion will take attention away from our hair.  But it doesn't work.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So we give up on the fashion, and just let the hair take over.  But this is a bad idea, too. 

 

 

 

 

 

Finally, all hope is lost.  We don't give a rip.  It's time to look for a scapegoat.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Because what is more American (or human) than finding someone else to blame??

None of this has fixed my hair.  But then I have accepted that nothing ever can.  Best of Hair Days to you!

Good luck with the hair day.... I'm lucky, my hair is all frizzy and wavy today, but I get to stay home and not go anywhere today, so it doesn't matter!
Peter Joseph Swanson Aug 6, 2008, 4:59pm EDT
Have you never heard of a TURBAN ???
Angela A. Aug 6, 2008, 5:03pm EDT
I understand exactly what you mean. My hair has never cooperated with me. I've had gray in my hair since high school. I dye it reddish brown. So sweet!

Very cute photo article.

I have two words of advice on the hair - Agua Net

My hair got so bad (both looking and feeling) that I felt like I was walking around with a raccoon on my head! Finally, one VERY early morning (around 4 am) when I couldn't sleep, I got up and went into the bathroom and attacked my hair with scissors. With just a little help with the back, I did okay. It looks pretty cute and it's the shortest I've worn it in over 20 years.
Susan G. Aug 6, 2008, 5:11pm EDT
Of course, you couldn't get away with doing what I did unless you have very thick hair like I do. It's pretty forgiving of my hacking at it.
Nurse Nancy S. Aug 6, 2008, 5:15pm EDT
This is an every day occurance for me...LOL

Very funny, loved the Phil Spector photo.
ann c. Aug 6, 2008, 5:35pm EDT
It's always five o'clock on Gather Island!!
ann c. Aug 6, 2008, 5:36pm EDT
Where the men are strong, the women are good-looking and there are NO children to be above average!!
Tracy Fabre Aug 6, 2008, 5:43pm EDT
Only average chirren? Okay, that'll be fine. We have enough overly smart kids on sitcoms.
ann c. Aug 6, 2008, 5:57pm EDT
Silly girl, no children on Gather Island. What in the heck would we do with them? Let the cabana attendants watch them, I don't think so!!!
ann c. Aug 6, 2008, 5:57pm EDT
Feed em to the sharks?
Tracy Fabre Aug 6, 2008, 5:58pm EDT
You didn't mean no above-average children. You meant no kids at all. Well, of course. It's an over-18 island, FER SHER.
Tracy Fabre Aug 6, 2008, 5:59pm EDT
Just this afternoon Paco and Marco and Luko were waxing some guests'... um..... surfboards... and no kid needed to see that.
ann c. Aug 6, 2008, 6:00pm EDT
Leave those kids alone, AT HOME!!!
ann c. Aug 6, 2008, 6:00pm EDT
Is that the Marx brothers?
Tracy Fabre Aug 6, 2008, 6:00pm EDT
Paco made thirty dollars in tips from that, btw.
ann c. Aug 6, 2008, 6:01pm EDT
Who got waxed?
Tracy Fabre Aug 6, 2008, 6:02pm EDT
Well, Vivian, for one. She blushed a lot.
Tracy Fabre Aug 6, 2008, 6:02pm EDT
Rob was next -- said it was part of the training process.
Angela A. Aug 6, 2008, 6:04pm EDT
Just dropping by to say.. I had to do dishes, that sucks! Took for-eva.
And, I have to finish up the laundry. I'm such a multi tasker, aren't I?
Tracy Fabre Aug 6, 2008, 6:05pm EDT
Yes, you are. You're still young, though; that's why. (*chugs more vitamins*) (there, now I can make it across the room...)
Angela A. Aug 6, 2008, 6:06pm EDT
Oh, so you're old eh? ha, ha, as Petey would say!
Vivian P. Aug 6, 2008, 6:07pm EDT
Golbal warming as mucked up my spelling as well !!!!

It's true just ask Ann and Peter
Vivian P. Aug 6, 2008, 6:11pm EDT
I'm going to get waxed again be back much later
Vivian P. Aug 6, 2008, 6:11pm EDT
But Vivian Is OLDER !! older can be fun
Tracy Fabre Aug 6, 2008, 6:11pm EDT
lol!!

I need some chocolate. Someone at work just did something BONEHEADED.
Angela A. Aug 6, 2008, 6:11pm EDT
You are not that much older than me chicka. Not by much.
Tracy Fabre Aug 6, 2008, 6:15pm EDT
I'd like to agree with you. But lying would be wrong.
ann c. Aug 6, 2008, 6:17pm EDT
Global warming mucks up a lot of things!!! I'm going to be using "mucks up" a lot. It's my new favorite saying!!

I wanted to say something about muffled giggling but I'm laughing too hard!!!
ann c. Aug 6, 2008, 6:18pm EDT
Where's my durn walker!!!
Lance L. Aug 6, 2008, 6:19pm EDT
Just great.
I've seen Phil Specter twice in one day now.
There's not a lufa that will get me that clean.
Tracy Fabre Aug 6, 2008, 6:19pm EDT
LOL. You don't need a walker. Rafael will carry you.

IN fact, wasn't it Rafael you were rumored to have disappeared with on Saturday night?

(Yes, I know it was me who started the rumor. That's beside the point.)
ann c. Aug 6, 2008, 6:20pm EDT
Rafael, wasn't that one of the Ninja Turtles?
Tracy Fabre Aug 6, 2008, 6:21pm EDT
LANCE, I'M SORRY!
ann c. Aug 6, 2008, 6:21pm EDT
Poor, poor Phil Specter. He needs a new do!!!
Tracy Fabre Aug 6, 2008, 6:22pm EDT
Ann, this Rafael is no turtle. He is a strapping young man, bronzed and lean, with the kind of bedroom eyes women (and gay men) melt for...
Vivian P. Aug 6, 2008, 6:26pm EDT
Mr. Specter needs a lot more than a new do !!!!!! A whole lot more.
I'l take two Rafaels and tcall me in the morning no wait make that next week
Vivian P. Aug 6, 2008, 6:27pm EDT
Chocolate !!!!!!!!!!!!

Rafael can wait
Vivian P. Aug 6, 2008, 6:32pm EDT
is that smack or snack ??
Tracy Fabre Aug 6, 2008, 6:34pm EDT
Vivian: "snack him around" -- would be a waste of snacks!!
Gretchen Lee Bourquin Aug 6, 2008, 8:14pm EDT
cute!
Angela A. Aug 6, 2008, 11:20pm EDT
Darn me had to do more housework, and missed out on all the cool stuff!
Oh, well, I'll be back sometime tomorrow.
Hugs to all my gal pals!
queen.susan . Aug 6, 2008, 11:29pm EDT
thanks for making me laugh with those.
Rae M. Aug 7, 2008, 10:25pm EDT
Wonderful!
Ian B (in Toronto) Aug 8, 2008, 4:50pm EDT
That is SO you. :-)
William Dotani Aug 9, 2008, 9:48pm EDT
LMBO. This was just fantastic. LOved the images.
Martha R. Aug 10, 2008, 8:08pm EDT
too cute!
Jan C. Aug 10, 2008, 11:22pm EDT
Very silly Tracy - the older I get, the more cowlicks develop.

Hmmm ... where did that term come from "cowlick"

Have I been dreaming of red meat again???
Kay M. Aug 11, 2008, 1:47pm EDT
LOL. You are telling my story.
necee t. Aug 16, 2008, 2:03am EDT
