Normally, my hair is kind of brown with blond highlights. That's normally - not naturally. But right now it's a bit darker and some folks have taken notice.
Here's the scoop. First off, let me ask you this question: If you had only 30 minutes to live, what would you do? I would dye my hair. Because that waiting for the dye to cast is a long, long 30 minutes. So last week while waiting I decided to wash some crystal pieces in the kitchen sink.
Not knowing a piece was broken I plunged my hand into the soapy water. Immediately the bubbles got bloody. I wrapped my hand in several paper towels and thought about the most sensible thing to do.
I wanted to just continue to wash the crystal pieces until my 30 minutes were up. But the paper towels were turning red. I wished Dave was home but then realized he would only say:
Hey, babe, you need a band aid on that.
I was dressed in only my ratty old "hair dying" robe and my wet hair was covered in Suran Wrap so I guessed I'd better shower and dress just in case I was bleeding to death and had to call 911.
So that's why my hair is brown. Only about 18 minutes with the dye!
After that I rewrapped my finger with a pile of kleenex while I put on some makeup in case I had to drive to the ER. But the bleeding was slowing down.
So an hour or so later I put on big plastic gloves and finished washing the crystal.
Then I applied a band aid.
