Freaking Out

Okay.

I'm a little bit freaking out.

Or maybe a lot.

Yeah, it's a lot of freaking out inside my head.

I found something today and while it may not be "the first", it was "officially" the first. Why I'm freaking out, I don't know, exactly. My brother, who is older, has found a few. My brother, who is younger, has found a few. I have friends, older and younger, who have found a few, and some friends who have found more than a few. Maybe I thought it wasn't going to happen to me. Maybe I thought I was impervious to that part of the process. Maybe I've been too worried about the process lately and thus, this sprung up!

And it literally sprung up. That's why I noticed it. That springy, wiry, standing-up GRAY HAIR on the top of my head like I am Daisy-Head Mayzie or something. Know what I did? I pulled it out.

Then I took a picture of it.

It's actually kind of white.

I'm going to Rite-Aid. Gotta buy some hair color.

And in case you're interested, here's yesterday's photo of the day:

My guess? These two are partly to blame.

I am laughing so hard right now. And you accused me of sharing a lot on my blog! I have never shared a gray hair...of course I don't know that I have any! He he he! And I have no idea why you accused those two sweet girls of causing it either...if anything they keep you young and spry.

You, my friend, talk about your in-laws having sex. That is not even in the same category as a gray hair. Plus, I'm pretty sure "highlighting" is a regular event for your head of hair. ;)

My eyes, my eyes! Is that the s-word on your blog? ;)

For the record, I dare say your younger brother has quite a few more gray hairs than your older brother. And I have no sympathy for any of you!
