I bought a flat-iron. I've been wanting one for years. So I finally caved. My new best friend/stylist suggested it. So being that she's my best friend now, I take her advice very seriously.
It's so easy to justify something that you really want!
I just picked up a really inexpensive one from Wal-Mart. The store I love to hate. (I really do have a love/hate relationship with the place. That's a whole 'nother story). I didn't know you could get one for so cheap. Why have I always thought that I'd have to sell one of my kids before I got one?! (kidding.)
So I'm off to try it out. It came in one of those form-fitting plastic cases, so tight even Britney Spears wouldn't be caught dead in one. I had a heck of time opening the darned thing. Why do they even make that kind of packaging?! I mean, I know they're trying to save space and all but it took me three pairs of scissors, an ice-pick, a pair of plyers, a plunger and a pack of duct tape before I finally opened the thing. (Duct tape really can be used for anything!)
Maybe I would've been better off if I sold a kid and bought the professional one.
At least it came in a box. ;)

i'm curious where the plunger came in....to unstick the curse words from a "potty mouth" perhaps?
all right, i know i'm dating myself as hopeless in any fashion sense, but what is a flatiron?
also, i think the picture of you just winked at me.

Lol!!!!
I'm not laughing because you're dating yourself. Just laughing because your whole comment made me laugh. Well mostly 'cause you said I just winked at you. You crack me up.
A flatiron is...well it looks exactly like a curling iron. Only it's flat. You use it to straighten your hair. I only know about it 'cause I have younger sisters. :)
Oh, we could have fun w/ that one... like... could I use it on the stomach or thighs to flatten and straighten things out a bit?
No? oh durn.
I think I need 20 minutes of shut-eye, I'm getting slap happy.
Yvonne - LOL!!! :)
So I was going to ask about the plunger too...but also, duct tape holds things together, how do you use it to open things? I'm enjoying the mental picture of you opening that package...I bet my little boys would have opened it in 2 seconds flat!
Lol! (Sue) :)
...and without the tools. ;)
You could stick the duct tape to the case and pull at it. And I agree - those plastic cases are near impossible.
I'm trying to figure out how the plunger was used.
your hilarious jennifer! and so were all the other comments! i love your third to last paragraph (starting with 'im off to try it out')! :)
Actually...I think that's where Britney gets her fashion inspiration
Lol! (Beatle)
