It Is Hereby Declared . . .

. . . that today is actually Thursday, February 19, 1984, which would make my roots less of an appalling eyesore and more of a fashion statement.  Less "Suicidal B-r-u-n-e-t-t-e Blonde", more "Material Girl".  Less overdue for emergency hair intervention, more Debbie Harry.

So I'd very much appreciate it today if you would all join me in doing your hair in a distracting side-ponytail, throw on your nearest neon pink glitter-paint tee (points if you have the plastic t-shirt clip), grab the nearest Cabbage Patch Doll, and declare this day 80s throwback day.  You with me?

More later, after my salon appointment . . .

Yours in 1 million friendship bracelets,

This just made me laugh out loud in my office. Love it!

Damn! I left the house without my neon pink shirt and purple tube socks.

My dear, I feel you on the hair front. Mine needs some assistance, and badly--but, where's the time???

Your posts always brighten my dreary, law-filled mornings! I'm right there with you on the roots - every time my salon asks me if I want to schedule my next appointment and I never do. I then forget to schedule it until it is too late and I have a bad case of white trash roots - add another couple of weeks to that because my stylist is always booked up! This past time I learned my lesson and made an appointment for 6 weeks out!

I'll even wear my most special beaded safety pins on my tennis shoes for you today!

Oh goodie! Then my roots won't look bad either! This blog world is so great - we can time travel and everything to suit our beauty/fashion needs!

I have on my slap bracelets and a neon scrunchie...Ha!

Can roots that gray/one-shade-of-brown-lighter- than-the-rest-of-your-hair be 1980s too? If so, I'm totally in.

Miss E stole my comment! I was going to offer my slap bracelet to the cause!

I am wearing silver city pink lipstick, wearing my shoulder pads, and dancing to Devo just for you.

Mmmmm, I love the 80's. I will wear sparkly blue eyeliner and listen to early Madonna!
