FRIDAY FUN VIDEO -- Bad Hair Photos (including mine)

As some of you may have noticed, I didn't blog Tuesday, although I had huge news to share. Though that news turned out to be why I didn't have time to post, because on Monday I found a long-lost (well, lost to me) sister (!!!), so unsurprisingly, the week's been filled with many messages and one way fun nearly seven-hour night-long phone call. I promise to tell more about the excitement next Tuesday.

Meanwhile, while gathering up photos to send to this new branch of my family, I found these:

Obviously I'm a baby in this one; my mother called this hair style a "pineapple."



At eighteen months, I'd gotten a lot more hair. Which only made the pineapple messier.



By my second birthday, since we were living in L.A., she seems to have been going for the Hollywood glam curl updo.



I can totally understand pinning it up, because this is what I looked like six months later without the controlled upswept pincurls. And no, I do not remember hiding a small animal beneath that top hair.



By the time I was three-years-old, she'd finally gotten a handle on taming that top wildness by holding it back with a big bow.



I think we've all had bad hair days. (I'm not even going to get into my center-parted flower child hair or 80s perm!) But some of the worst eventually end up on The Ellen Degeneres show. Enjoy:
