So I found my first grey hair.
On my head, to be clear. I have found stray white eyebrow hairs before but I plucked those suckers and tried to forget them.
I found the single grey hair right where my hair parts. It's curly. My regular hair is bone straight.
The timing of this is suspect, by the way. It all happened a week after my sister and I said OUT LOUD that neither of us have any grey hair yet. She's older. I feel robbed.
And like my friend Jennie always says, "don't bring the evil". I brought it on by saying it out loud. Totally my own fault.
Anyway, tonight I stuck my head right under my husband Sean's nose and demanded he flashlight the hair, to determine if it's white or grey.
He said "It's a different shade of white."
So, it's grey.
Then he asked if I wanted him to pluck it out and I surprised myself when I said "NO!"
I earned that sucker, It's my new friend.
And, it's curly! Maybe my hair will finally have the full body I have always longed for!
Silver lining. Or, grey lining. Whatever.
