How far will we go?

The girl hero and I were talking yesterday about botox. It seems like it's a topic that has been coming up a lot lately, not sure why. Upon further examination, we concluded that using botulism to rid one's self of wrinkles is the equivalent of self-inflicted biological warfare. Who in the hell came up with this idea?! WTF! It is now commonplace for otherwise right thinking grrls to VOLUNTARILY have a paralyzing pathogen injected into their body, all in the name of "beauty". "What's next?" we asked ourselved. Using mustard gas to color our hair? Imagine that conversation on an all new episode of "Sex and the City". It would probably go something like this:

Miranda: Oh my god! Samantha! Your hair color looks so great today! Are you doing something different?

Samantha: Well girls, I have found THE hairdresser of the moment.

Carrie: You're not going to Raoul anymore? Two weeks ago you said you trusted him with your life!

(Notice how all the characters end every sentence with an exclamation point..but I digress..)

Samantha: Oh noooo....Raoul just wasn't up to the minute with his coloring techniques. Now I'm seeing Maxine...

Charlotte: What does she do? New product line?

Samantha: Oh yesssss....Forget that Redkin or Biolage crap. She uses mustard gas!

Carrie: Mustard gas?! But isn't that dangerous?

Samantha: Honey, EVERYTHING'S dangerous. It's all about how much something is worth to you. And being blonde is worth EVERYTHING to me.

And scene....

Gotta go. The new line of anthrax matte powder from MAC just came out and I gotta get some quick! The stuff is just FLYING off the shelves..
