Star Wars in my bedroom... NOT kinky!

In my eternal quest for thicker hair in my old age, without having to perm it, I have started using rollers. Nothing fancy, just some of those huge ones that use the same idea as Velcro. They just “stick” in your hair!

I usually put 3 of them in my hair right after the shower and go directly into the bedroom since I DO know how ridiculous I look in them and I try to avoid the laughter of The Man that early in the morning.

Not so lucky this morning.

The Man walks into the bedroom where I am dressing to say goodbye. He’s leaving for work.

“OK, I gotta…. (he has noticed my hair)… ummm… (he starts to grin, and quickly walks over to me, holding my arms down)… May the force be with you Princess Leia” He starts laughing his head off.

I tried to punch him, but he won’t let go of my arms. He struggles to get it together and stop laughing.

“Seriously honey, I’ve just never seen your hair in curlers” All serious now.

It’s still there in his eyes.

“Go ahead, I know you want to laugh, so just get it over with for crying out loud”

So as he snorts and carries on, I sit on the bed and give him “that look”, waiting.

He finally stops and gives me his serious, non-laughing face again.

“Ok, I really have to get going to work” He leans over and smooches me goodbye and backs away.

“Again Princess Leia, may the force be with you.”

I can hear him laughing all the way out the door.

So much for getting more volume without him seeing me.
