Stare Master

Hypnosis has long been regarded with skepticism. I mean, can you really make a person bark like a dog without his knowledge? One has to wonder if it is really possible.

However, after seeing Abbie, Toto and Charlie in action, I am starting to believe there might be something to it... Those eyes... I can't help but stare...

"Looooook into my eyes... You will never get me near a bathtub again..."

"You're getting sleeeeepyyyy... and the uncontrollable urge to give me a treat..."

"When you wake up, you will not be able to stop yourself from finding me adorable..."

Whew! What just happened? Did they really...? No, it can't be truuWOOOOF! Ooops! Ooooh, they're good...

Cry 'N Cyan Moan

Earlier this year, Pantone declared the color Turquoise as the Color of the Year for 2010. I was particularly gleeful upon hearing that, especially since cyan hues are my favorite colors.

Sadly for me, my enthusiasm is not shared by everyone, as evidenced by the picture below. Cuki's piercing (if not glow-in-the-dark) glare during bathtime says it all.

"Mark my words: Next year, white will be the new It color! Grrrr..."

True blue, baby I love you... ;)

Bed Head... And Beard

Every decade has a distinctive hairstyle that defines it. Remember these? (Be honest, we won't tell anyone how old you really are!)

1950's: The Beehive and the Poodle Perm
1960's: The Pageboy
1970's: The Shag, the Afro and the Farrah Flicks
1980's: The Mullet and the Mohawk
1990's: The Rachel Bob

Which hairstyle were we introduced to in the new millenium, you ask? The Bed Beard! (Not to be confused with the trendy and humanly popular Bed Head)

And how do I achieve this 'do, you ponder? Easy! Simply get in bed, fall into a deep sleep, toss, turn and wake up. It's that simple! No, really, take a look at Reece and Cokenee to see how it's done.

"I wonder if Mr. Sandman ever looked this good..."

"Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray for hair like a jumbled heap..."

Hairdressers the world 'round are weeping... ;)
