Getting Ready

Yesterday was my birthday, and we were heading over to Bullwinkle's Family Fun Center to party it up with some friends and family. I'm not a dressy girl, I knew it was an arcade, so I wasn't about to "dress up" for it, but still...it's a special day, so I figured I'd doll up my hair.

I tend to change my hair often, but one thing that has remained a constant for me is that my hair will take a curl like a sponge takes water. In the 80's this was "cool" with perms, etc. Now, it's great with hot rollers, and until I find that someone can give me a perm that gives me the same result as hot rollers, I'm sticking with them :)

So, I rolled my hair, pinned and clipped a little, and hairsprayed the heck out of it.

And then the camera came out.

This style remained during Go-Karts, bumper boats, mini-golf, and rain. We also played lots of arcade games, and Laser Tag...in which we got hot and sweaty. My hair remained killer.

In the party preparations, Little M also curled her hair, but her hair takes curl like cats take to water....poor thing.

So we mollified her with painted nails, and she didn't care once we were livin' it up at the arcade.

Another post to come, with party pictures, my dad trying to smother me, and one of my BFFs skiing.
