Blonde and Proud of it!

Constantly I am having my blondeness called into question. This has nothing to do with my ability to act like a dumbass! I believe I would continue to do stupid shit regardless of my hair color. I am told that I have a quota of times I can blame something on the fact that I am blonde. Hey I mean come on it’s a convenient excuse! I like to blame my sometimes stupidity on my sister pushing me into a TV at a young age and giving me a concussion. But we won’t go into the constant family abuse be it physical or verbal. Like my sister breaking my arm, she didn’t really I just like to mess with her and say she pushed me off the swing. Are you sensing a pattern here?? But I jest, in my family we are just full of sarcastic humor that is often directed towards each other. Even my ten year old nephew is in on the game, which means he will only get better with age and that frightens me to my core! Not only will he eventually over take me in size and be able to exact physical revenge on me for tickling him to tears or hanging him upside, but he will be able to beat me at a game of wits and name calling! I will say I am not above bribery and the constant reminder that I am the fun one in the family, which I am sure, will only placate him till 16! Hopefully he will have discovered girls by then so he will forget about torturing me and torture my sister with going out on dates ha ha ha.

What I mean about having my blondeness called into question is that people are constantly asking me if I dye my hair! I guess I should take that statement as a compliment but I don’t. I am a natural blonde, yes my eyebrows are darker but hey that is just genetics and my genes fault for pulling the short straw on that one. There is nothing that makes me want to punch my friend L more when he looks at the top of my head and says the hairs are brown up there you can’t possibly be blonde. It is at this point I threaten to hit him and he moves on. It is summer time so right now I do not get too many questions about my hair color because my hair bleaches out to white blonde. This is a gift I love and hope never goes away! However, since I hit 13 probably my hair gets darker in the winter. I prefer to think I am a dirty blonde in the winter but more and more people are telling me my hair is brown. This sends me into convulsions! I love being blonde I can’t imagine dying my hair any color, though some of my more sadist friends threaten to dye my hair dark brown should I get unruly or too rambunctious.

When I go through the really you are blonde statement, I generally try to hold my twitch in and politely respond that I am my hair just gets a bit darker when I am not constantly out in the sun. What I am thinking though is do I possibly have the best of both worlds? I get to be a brunette and a blonde, all without the aid of chemicals! I mean first off I am not one to shell out 100 dollars to have someone to dye my hair. And could you even imagine me trying to dye my own hair! Hello catastrophe, I would probably end up dying my face or burning my eyes out! Which would make very funny table talk, but alas I do not have any interest in accidentally dying my eyeballs! More and more I just think that I have the best of both worlds And of course Blonde do have more fun, or maybe I just have more fun!

Till next time!
