Crazy Hair Day


When I was in grade 7 I participated in a time honored event at my middle school: Slave Day. It was a part of the homecoming festivities and what a week lead up to this! Twin day! Reverse Clothes Day! Opposite Sex Day! Finally, on Thursday we girls got to bid on boys and the boys got to bid on girls and on Friday, if we were lucky, we got to have a hot middle school boy slave for an entire day!

My girlfriends and I pooled our money and we were the highest bidders in Slave Day history by spending $10 on (ooh...someone who should remain nameless). Let's just say he was super popular and super hot. We all imagined getting to do to him what we had been watching M.R. doing to his girlfriend all over the school yard all year long, but we are good girls at heart and didn't do anything our mothers would be ashamed of.

Back to the modern world. Now days, elementary school kids get to have Crazy Hair Day! The lead up to crazy hair day was very exciting. "Friday is crazy hair day! Friday is crazy hair day!" Good thing I have a new job at a salon and there are products there that can transform even the blackest hair into gorgeous blue spikes. There are products that can make the brownest hair turn reddish orange. Even Willie wanted to have blue spike hair. It was a fun morning around the Greear house.

Maybe I had the most fun reliving events that are hard to image anyone ever allowed to happen...

The moose has been unveiled! It is a fantastic mount and it is hanging right over my couch! It is huge and as promised I am thrilled to have the man displaying it in my living room. (Emphasis on the 'thrilled to have the man'.)

He and DeeJay mounted extension ladders and with their drill guns and nerves of steel had it done in about an hour. I'll be honest. I love it!
