I was Lillie Langtry in another life, and might have a crush on Calamity Jane.

Teenagers are from Uranus

"What dreams may come when we have shuffled off this mortal coil must give us pause." - William Shakespeare

Yep, I have definitely decided that teenagers are from some other planet in the universe. Visiting here just to wreck havoc in the domicile. Alas, I too was once an alien. But, luckily I shed that skin fairly unscathed.

You would think being a teen in the late 60's and early 70's would have given me a window into the minds of 15 year old boys. Not. I really understand about wanting to be different (although in their terminology it really means "Like everyone else"). I really understand all about it being "MY hair".

At the risk of imitating my dad, GET THE SHIT CUT, OR I WILL CUT IT MYSELF! Dangerous going around looking through tangled locks of brunette hair. Must think the world is truly a hairy place to live through those eyes!

Joys of parenting.... Listen and take heed all ye of unborn progeny.
