I woke up late today and I don’t just mean late, I mean 15 mins before I had to be at work.
So as I screeched round the house putting my pants on & just about tickling my teeth with the brush - my greasy old hair, at this point, wasn’t top of mind, but when I caught sight of myself in the mirror as I sprinted out of the house I knew there was only one thing to be done; to at least try and hide some of my dirty locks– get the hairband! I raced upstairs grabbed the piece of material and ran to my car.
When I arrived at work, just about on time, the hairband was in place. I felt a little groggy but overall thought my appearance was ok considering, until Mr Peter Gordon got into the studio and asked "What on earth is that piece of material on your head?" I replied "what do you think it is – it’s holding my hair back and it’s a band – it’s a hair band!" Stupid boy!
Then a little under an hour later I was told that Wavy Davy thought I looked like "Superwoman, or Wonder Girl or whoever that lady was that used to turn around and change into her costume."
"Wonder Woman Wavy!"
I have to say I was mildly flattered that I was being compared to a 70’s icon – even if it was for my blue hairband, which looks nothing like the golden crown that Lynda Carter wore, but still the comparison was there –until the lovely Wavy Davy said "Only cos of the headband Posh not cos you look like her or anything…"
"Oh Right. Thanks Wavy." I replied, as I scampered off to the bathroom to put my make up on, realising that no amount of slap would help me look like a 70’s icon, but it would make feel human for a few hours at least…
Note to self – get another alarm clock!
