Sproing

Sproing
Guess what?
(Chicken butt)
I have a little story for you. Not an old one either. Yesterday, I had just pulled up to work, and as usual was running a bit late-ish, so I had shower fresh wet hair. It was mostly dry from my ingenious use of the ghetto hair dryer--the open window; so I got my brush out and pulled my hair back for a ponytail. That's when I saw it sproinging out the side of my head like a rabid mini-slinky.
The grey hair.
The harbinger of doom.
My mortality sproinging me right in the face.
Truthfully though, I'm not upset. I mean it had to happen sometime right? I think I'll look lovely with grey hairs. And if I don't, that's what hair color is for damn it!

So...

Work was so busy today. Wait, before I begin, that reminds me of something.
Why is 'so', a good descriptive word? It's like 'very'. I have this habit of reading everything when I am in the bathroom. When I am brushing my teeth, I read the handsoap bottle, the listerine bottle, the back of the book sitting on the potty, that sort of thing. I was taking a lovely bath, and the only thing in sight was Dakota's shampoo bottle, so, I read it. Loreal for kids is so gentle! Loreal for kids is so detangling! Loreal for kids smells so good! Loreal for kids is so safe! sososososo. SO cool! Really if you take the so out, it doesn't make too much difference there. If it was amazingly detangling!, smelled fantastically good!, and seriously safe!, I may have paid another dollar for it. Really! :p
As I was saying, work was 'so' busy today. :p It usually takes a good bit for me to get frazzled, but I was today. I had so many things going on, that I was on my way to do something and totally forgot what it was, so I just froze in place, in a walking pose no less, trying to figure out what the heck was going on. I stood there for at least 5 seconds with my mind a complete and total blank. It was like there was nothing in my head but my eyeballs. Then, tt-tth-tth-thwap! It all slammed back into my brain, I knew where I was going and I had all the things I was juggling back up in the air and in good order.
Not to skip around and around to the same subjects, but I keep reminding my own self of stuff today! One morning reading the kid's mouthwash bottle, I read it to say, "Keeps kids whiter and brighter!". I thought to myself that that was a little messed up. Turns out, the bottle was turned enough to where I missed the word "teeth". Keeps kids teeth whiter and brighter! Ooooh.
Um. I think that's enough for today. I'm killing myself here, I can only imagine how you feel! No worries, those brain cells will grow back someday. Sure they will! I am so sure.
