Karma!

I need professional help... sure you have all been saying that for years, hmm?
Okay, sometimes I am a wee bit too impatient and it does get me into all sorts of trouble, but this....?

It has been a long time for this gal to have done something this stupid!
Well, maybe not that long...
But it is at least thirty or more years since I had a hair color that was not in Vogue unless your idea of being, 'with it' is avant garde. Let's see when I was sixteen I did have blue hair by mistake of trying hard to prevent brassiness with silver drops making it too blue!
Then at around thirty something I had dark avocado green by another coloring fluke but this time (At this rate my next experience should be in another forty years... I'm good; pretty sure I won't be around for that one!)

Fast forward thirty years later... I HAVE ORANGE! And in my case ORANGE IS NOT THE NEW BLACK!!!!!! It's just 'orange' that rhymes with nothing! Oh alright, the NEW BROWN, but not for long, I hope!
Don't laugh, oh alright go on ahead... but it's my head!
In an effort to speed up the coloring process of making me once again a blond I tried the quicky method..., now get your minds out of the gutter and back here where I need them, HELP!
I used a product that has the stamp of approval from many women for many years' worth... a Clairol one... but this one type of theirs I had never ever tried before....
And all it promised was to take me
from dark to light; pretty darn impressive, hmm?
But I ask any of you, does my hair color above appear to resemble any of those colors below it? NO! I hear you! Not really, but I bet you said no too? SURE YOU DID! For you are NOT color blind although at this moment I wish that I was, I know I just got my eyesight back and all...not so funny when I put it like that!

Any-who, what would you do in this case?
I can't hear you and so I will tell you what I did...
It being Sunday and all I first foolishly called the number on the box, 1-800-Clairol, logical right?
They are not opened on SUNDAY!
Next I called the places who sell hair color that are open today, but sadly they amounted to grocery stores and drugstores with no professional hair colorists there, and not allowed to recommend a fix.
Although, a couple suggested contacting two pro shops, Sally's and Cosmof also for people in the business and of course they too were closed....
Now some of you who are shaking your heads profusely thinking why the heck I didn't go to a professional salon to have this done?
Well, I have a problem with their sinks to wash my hair, due to cervical stenosis I cannot have my head tilted back like that it could hurt me severely or cause a stroke since I had a TIA.
I even go into my haircut appointments with a clean wet shampooed head...
So now I am on hold.
Until tomorrow, I hope only...
I will be postponing my PT that was scheduled for tomorrow.
We have the phone company coming between 8-5 tomorrow anyway since we have been experiencing static on our house line.

Oh I won't be answering the door if they come, Hubby will and if he has to make a color run for a cure (wish everything can be cured so easily, put this into perspective, although, when I look in the mirror I don't know whether to laugh or cry, really!)... to my Carrot Top, and so sorry Carrot Top, on you it looks right... but not me, believe me!

On that note of why me?
This is so silly and ridiculous at the same time... but it does serve me right... and oh by the way if you try to stop by to get a closer look I am not answering the door at all!

Allow me to wish all of you a very happy good night and ask you to kindly count all your blessings and share all your overages and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, you hear!
