: a story I keep meaning to post:
: Carrie and I worked a 50th birthday party last summer, and this
woman asked Carrie, while she was working on her, "how did you begin
doing this?" Now, what you don't know is that Carrie bus-napped me
all the way from Vermont to Colorado. I took the forty hour busride
under the mistaken idea that she just wanted her best friend to visit
for the summer. No, she
: wanted a henna partner. I got off the exhausting ride, not knowing
my name, to Carrie saying, "This is henna, this is what we're doing
this summer..." Customs, application, practicing--soon I saw designs
everywhere. She's obsessed and now I am, too. So, before Carrie could
answer this woman's question, I leaned over and replied, very
seriously,
: "oh, it was awful. Carrie fell in a vat of henna."
: "Really?"her eyes widened.
: Carrie and I couldn't hold it and we burst out laughing.
: Since Carrie has red hair, we've since amended our henna obsession
excuse to:
: "Carrie fell in a vat of henna, and her hair never recovered."
: Feel free to use our excuse at will :)
