In Need of a Makeover

Apparently, I'm in need of a makeover. This epiphany came to me one night while sitting at the computer chatting with John who was at the time deployed to Afghanistan. Sean approached me and began with, "You know, Mom, if you want to be popular....". I'll stop there to let you know what was going through my head at this point. It was a bunch of whaaaaa???? Huh? He definitely got my attention. I interrupted him and said, "If I want to be popular?". He replied, "Yeah. If you want to be popular you need to get some popular shoes, some popular pants and shirt, and you need to get an InStyler for your hair". "Ok," I replied. "So I need popular shoes, pants and shirt and an InStyler." "Yeah, so you can have "flaps" (making an upward curving motion with his hands by his ears; think of the Flying Nun and you'll have a general idea). "Flaps?," I say. "Wow. You think I would look good with flaps". "Yeah, I think so. And you can look like you just stepped out of a salon every day". Lord help me the day he figures out how to dial the number and give them my credit card. I'll have every piece of crap sold on tv. But I bet I'll look damn good!!!
