Narcissist.

My older sister caught me singing in the mirror once when I was about ten.

She made fun of me, because - hello! That's hilarious.

But it did leave just the tiniest emotional scar, and now I'm reticent to spend too much time gazing at my reflection in public restrooms for fear of a repeat Ace of Base/hairbrush experience.

I'm glad, though, that I seized a quiet moment in the ladies room this morning for a closer inspection.

Because I noticed the oatmeal in my hair.

Allison+Mirror: 1. Oatmeal: 0.

Was that older sister me? Funny how I don't remember something so traumatic for you. Mostly I just remember the face you make when you are doing your hair :) Oh no, have a scarred you again? I hope the first one was Koryn.

Ha! Ash, it was you... but you might not remember it because I likely got defensive and pretended you didn't see what you thought you saw.

Or maybe that was just totally normal for you and it didn't faze her?

LOL! Oatmeal is a volatile substance.
