I don't typically like to make fun of myself, but today is your lucky day! I'm taking one for the team cause I feel like making you laugh!!!
The girls have been in swimming lessons, and we have to get up and moving a little early (for summertime, anyways). Last night, in an effort to make this morning go more smoothly, I took my shower. Now, when I shower at night, my very thin and fine hair is usually stuck to my scalp in the morning and it is nearly impossible to style it very well. Knowing this, I decided it might be nice to put curlers in my hair so I would have some volume in the morning. Except I really didn't want to sleep in curlers - I actually did want to get some sleep.
So then I started thinking about how back in the olden days women did pin-curls. I don't know how to do pin curls, but I figured it probably wasn't rocket-science. So I just twisted my hair up into little curls and inserted some bobby pins. Then I went to bed. And I didn't sleep very well. Turns out bobby pins aren't a whole lot more comfortable than curlers. :) And when Kyle got up this morning to get ready for work, he actually looked at me like I was a freak. (He was asleep when I came up with this little plan the night before).
When I finally got up, I ran excitedly to the bathroom to remove the bobby pins - sure that my hair was going to be so glamorous today!! Not so much. Actually, my hair was an absolute train wreck. I looked like a poodle with a bad perm. I know. Nobody gives a poodle a perm. But just imagine what that would look like.....My hair. This morning. Are you laughing yet? Good. Now, if I had wanted to make you pee your pants, I would have taken a picture and posted it. I was not feeling that generous today. :) I tried to work with it a little bit - but it was just going to look bad no matter what! So, I ended up back in the stinking shower, and I went to swimming lessons with wet hair.

I just recently tried the same thing ;) But then a blog friend shared this: http://mommara.blogspot.com/2011/07/you-must-try-this-hair-idea.html
and I actually don't look too bad when I do it.
I couldnt really get the full effect. You should have posted it.
I tried that before, too, with about the same results, except I was in 5th grade and it was picture day. Bad, bad, bad.
