Gotta dye my hair blue now
Feb. 8th, 2009 12:53 pmToday is "Scout Sunday." After finding four volunteers this past Wednesday at the troop meeting to usher for today, I told the boys that it would be great if some extra scouts would show up just because it is Scout Sunday and the blue-hairs (old ladies) of the church would love the opportunity to say how nice they look and pinch their cheeks. Additional volunteers were non-existent...so I said that I would dye my hair blue the following week if I had 8 scouts in uniform for the church service. Depending on who you include, there were 7, 8, 9, or 10 "scouts" there.
Although I can weasel out of this on a technicality that neither the two Cub Scouts nor the over-18 Eagle Scout are youth in our troop (which would only show that I'm a wishy-washy asshole), I've decided to go ahead with the dye job.
I know I can probably find blue hair dye at Hot Topic, but I'm really hoping to find it somewhere else in town now. Hopefully I can purchase the dye tomorrow (I'm thinking about going to Sally Beauty first, then Enchanted Masquerade or Zero Gravity if no luck at Sally) and dye my hair either Tuesday or Wednesday before the next troop meeting.
