The Prom


We are finally done.  Courtney's last prom.  I had just finished paying off her last prom!  Dresses, dinners, hair, shoes..  Ugh!

Courtney has naturally wavy hair.  For some reason, this natural state is entirely unacceptable.  We spend a ridiculous amount of money every year overcoming this "immutable characteristic."  Chemical straightening every six months is combined with a daily dose of a ceramic hair straightener that costs more than my car.  The GDP of some developing countries is spent in search of the perfectly straight strand.

That is, until the Prom.  On the day of the prom, Karen takes Courtney to the salon to get her hair curled.  This takes two hours and another king's ransom.  This may be, uhm, Hairisy but I don't believe Men are from Mars and women are from Venus.  That would be the same solar system!  

Here is a link to the slideshow
