Well, well, well...guess who's hosting today's Fun Monday...my trashy friend, Robin at Pensieve. (Go check out the complete list of participants at her place.) Our friendship goes way back. There was something called S.P.E.A.R. Challenge 2007. But, on with the show...she has asked us to find our Worst "Bad Hair Day." She goes on to say, "If you're the unfortunate soul who has more than one, well, then post as many as you are willing."
More than ONE ? How 'about more than TWENTY ? Here goes..
This is a collage of old school photos from my school teaching days...
BELOW:
Moving left to right, top to bottom...
No explanation needed for the first one.
Four school teachers who were chaperoning a middle school party, having a blast. In fact, we probably had more fun than the students.
Invitation (designed by theHansMan)to my 50th birthday party: L to R: 4 years old, senior picture-class of '69, pic at daughter's wedding)
Green hair: What else? St. Patrick's Day
Orange hair: Preparing to watch Oklahoma State University NCAA basketball game
Pink hair: No reason. Just wanted to wear pink.
Chichen Itza Mexico(interesting link for those interested)
That's where we were when this pic was taken. I didn't think I would ever get those beads and braids out of my hair. Thoughts of maybe leaving them and starting a dread locks entered my mind.
This next picture is probably my favorite "Bad Hair Day" picture. It represented a new beginning for me.
So, there you have it... two dozen Bad Hair photographs in one click of your mouse.
Thanks for visiting.
I'm somewhere in this state
flitting around on my broom
I hope to locate a cornpooter
And be able to visit you sometime soon.









Oh, deep breath, I panicked for just one moment when I thought that was a feather duster. Then I realized it was witches broom.
I'm okay, smelling salts and all.
Now thats a lot of hair days. -- cept for the Hansman. He doesn't have enough to be bad.
I admit a few of your coifs made me giggle. But most of them were quite lovely, in fact.

If only my bad hair days were as tame as yours, I'd be able to hold my head up higher!

hee hee - I recognize the mid-80's short coif immediately.
I've always wanted to have my hair braided and beaded - but I guess I'll stick to my boring style instead.
enjoy Kentucky.

Hmmmm, why would I instantly think of you on a "hair day" theme? I have no idea.
Your "DOs" are not bad, just different. I KNEW I could count on you, cutie. Just knew it!
Love the beads and braids...maybe I'll have that done on my anniversary trip. Maybe I'll wait til after ;).

enidd is seriously impressed - what a variety! which did you enjoy most?

Nice new look with the banner! Glad I don't have to go through the torture of yearly school photos anymore. (2 of those were good though...) The most recent picture I have of myself is from the summer of 1993! How did you ever sit still long enough for the beads and braids to be done? Happy travels!

These are fun bad hair days (not really bad in fact your hair is very neat and tidy) the braids and beads are familiar beccy went through that faze.

or even 'phase' if I could spell
Posted by: Chrisb | April 23, 2007 at 02:02 PM
Okay, you win fun monday! But I wouldn't classify any of those as "bad" hair days - you look cheery and bright in every picture!
Posted by: melissa | April 23, 2007 at 03:29 PM
bad hair? I see no bad hair...well, with exception to the 'no hair' moment. LOL
Very cool hair montage, there. :)
Posted by: thepearlady | April 23, 2007 at 07:18 PM
Swampy, some of those early pics would definitely classify as Hair Helmut! I do love the pink, orange and green.
Will I recognize you next time you are in Seattle? We are still *on* aren't we?

It's 10:00 p.m. in the Bluegrass State. Just finished feeding 3 college boys (one is a grandson). They range in size from 6'1" - 6'5"...weighing in at about 250 each. I've never seen so much lasagne, salad, bread, and chocolate chip cookies go down the hatch so quickly. First home-cooked meal they had in months.
Thanks for visiting today. Don't know if I'll be able to post back tomorrow or not.

You DO look like a teacher! One I would not misbehave for. I like you best in the photo sporting the red/white/blue flag sweater.

I'm loving your no hair look - you could give Sinead O'Connor a run for her money.
