Well, it’s confirmed.
I’m older than Methuselah!
And I’m able to document whenΒ my ancient-ness started to the exact day. How many people can say that?
So, there I am, putting on a little makeup before the man gets home so that I don’t rival the Crypt Keeper for ugliest freak show on earth and I see something in my eyebrow.
“What on earth is that?” I ask myself.
Then I flip the mirror around to the 10x magnification side (eeeee gawds, don’t ever do that!) and saw this monstrosity:
What in the ever-loving hell is that?
Who ever heard of such a hideous thing?
Half luxurious black. Half Jodi-is-old-as-dirt gray.
What the fuck????????
I’m too young for this!
Oh, and add to the grayness the fact that that eyebrow hair is 300 feet long.
It looks like a 90-year-old man’s nose hair.
Hmmm…what shall I do to cheer myself up?
I’m thinking a splurge of pizza for dinner.
Yep, that’ll heal what ails me.

Hope you guys are having a good week! XO
There are worse places to find a gray hair. Trust me. But a little snow on the roof – or shutters, or front porch – doesn’t mean there’s still not a fire going inside!

An old lady in a nursing home is wheeling up and down the halls in her wheelchair making sounds like she’s driving a car. As she’s going down the hall an old man jumps out of a room and says, “Excuse me ma’am but you were speeding. Can I see your driver’s license?” She digs around in her purse a little, pulls out a candy wrapper, and hands it to him. He looks it over, gives her a warning and sends her on her way. Up and down the halls she goes again. Again, the same old man jumps out of a room and says, “Excuse me ma’am but I saw you cross the centre line back there. Can I see your registration please?” She digs around in her purse a little, pulls out a store receipt and hands it to him. He looks it over, gives her another warning and sends her on her way. She zooms off again up and down the halls weaving all over. As she comes to the old man’s room again he jumps out. This time, he’s stark naked and has an erection! The old lady in the wheel chair looks up and says, “Oh no… not the Breathalyzer again!”

Oh my good Lord! That is hysterical!!! You boys will do anything for head! π Can’t blame you. I tell my hubby that if I had one of those toys attached to my body I be banging cantaloupes on a daily basis. It seems to me a cantaloupe would be awesome for banging. But what do I know? I don’t have one of those thingies. I’d probably never leave the house if I did. π

LOL! I found MY first gray hairs 2 weeks before I turned 30. I know! I know! Why in the hell was I looking for them?? But I did… and there they were!

The day I find something like that, I’m done! It’s bad enough having to color my hair, which immediately takes 5-10 years off my face, but always feels like an epic chore.

All in all, the gray hair isn’t too bad. It’s more the maintenance than the significance that’s a total pain in the ass! π
As for the books, I hope you like them! Fingers, toes, eyes and knees crossed. Wait. If I keep my knees crossed the hubby will feel neglected. I’ll keep everything else crossed that you enjoy them or at least get a few good chuckles. π Hugs!
