FROM LUCY TO IRMA TO JACKIE TO ME — I GOT MY HAIR DONE – ALERT THE PRESS!

The most beautiful, statuesque, raven haired, blue eyed, Princess does my hair. Babies I walk out of her salon and I never feel better… Okay, there are some moments that involve the Mister – but we don’t go there on this weblog.

At any rate the marvelous Jackie trained with Irma – who was Lucile Ball’s hair dresser:

voilaThe real “Lucy” moment involved foil arrayed over the crown of my head that could have picked up radio waves from the Delta Quadrant – but I didn’t want to scare you!

    Wonderful – Love the “Lucy moment”, fetching even in disarray…! So funny.
    “Radio waves from the Delta quadrant” Bwahahaha! *Star Trek*! Hilarious.
    “(S)ome moments that involve the mister…”, *scandalous*, that’d be an entirely different kind of weblog 😉

      C’est vrai! Okay, that’s about all the conversing I can do in French. I was hoping someone would pick up on the Star Trek reference… and YOU did. Three cheers and a kiss on the cheek!

    *Thrilled*! 😉 (I tried to work a pun on “make it so” in here somehow but thought better of it, ha. But, hey, Patrick Stewart and I are both Northern Englishmen!)

    As stated earlier, it doesn’t matter where you are seated, Vickie, your beauty shines through – even if it is from the Delta Quadrant! haha!
    Leaving for Florida early in the morning. I’ll be out of communication until the 11th. When I get back we can get down to the business of a review.
    Have a swell week, V!

    There really is nothing like leaving the hair salon. I refer to my stylist as “The Magician” because she truly is.

      Oh yeah, there’s some kind of enchantment that goes on there, and I like it!
