Funny Story

Okay... So this morning I was getting ready for work... You know, the usual shower, war paint and head dress.... Well, I plugged my hair dryer in and dried the bottom half of my hair then plugged in my Chi flat iron, flipped the switch and OMG... it wouldn't turn on! So, I wiggled the cord, flipped the switch again and still nothing. So I jiggled the cord where it was plugged into the wall... still nothing... At this point I'm starting to get a little worried and upset because all of us girls know how important a flat iron is to our normal routine... I unplugged the Chi and the dryer and flipped the breaker thingie... Plugged in the hair dryer and it worked. So I know at this point there is juice to the outlet. I plugged in the Chi again and flipped the button to on... still nothing. At this point I'm really MAD... I'm thinking to myself.... I'm already running late, Baylee still hasn't had breakfast, I can't just wear a hat to work and if this thing really is broken it is TOTALLY not fitting into my budget to get a new right now... (we all know how I am with my budget!) So, I take a deep breath, put the Chi down and decide that I could just plug in my curling iron and do something creative with my hair this morning and then have Byron look at the Chi this afternoon to see if he could fix it. WELL... I pulled out my curling iron that was in the same drawer the Chi was in... you know... a tangled mass of hair accessories...... Turns out, the curling Iron was plugged in all along! HA! I never pulled the Chi cord out all the way from the drawer b/c it is so long, I just reached in and grabbed the end and put it into the wall.... Turns out I plugged in the curling iron instead of the Chi!

Whew... I'm sure glad my Chi isn't broken... and more grateful my husband wasn't home to see the whole episode!

Wishing you all a happy hair day!

Too funny!!! LOVE it! That's totally something I would do. Plugging the wrong thing in AND freaking about the cost of a new Chi.
