Re: Whatcha thinking about now?
I'm thinking about the irony that I went through school feeling ashamed of my hair colour. Then in adulthood my ex (the German guy) told me he would never have kids with me in case I passed on my ginger gene. According to him redheads smell bad. I died my hair at the time but blamed my natural hair colour for him leaving me (with hindsight, he was just an ass).
Ironic then, that after years of hiding my real hair colour now at almost 34, I'm ashamed that my hair isn't red enough (it's the same colour as a red setter dog and just looks brown out of the sun). I pass redheads in the street and get ginger envy.
Funny how I always find a way to feel inadequate.
