My Fallback Job: Bearded Lady
by Leslie
Julia likes to draw in my ‘To Do List’ notebook. This is a drawing she did of me. With a beard. She gave me a beard. She was certain to point it out. The beard. Mommy with a beard. Hilarious.
And while we’re talking about excess hair, my eyebrows are fairly prominent in that sketch, too.
On the next page, I quickly jotted:
I don’t know. Maybe I’ll skip the appointment and save the money for Christmas. Perhaps I could even make a little cash by setting up a tent in the side yard where people can pay to gaze upon my freaky excess facial hair. That way, when Julia makes fun of it again, I can say, “Hey! That hair paid for your Christmas!” and later, “…your college education.” It would be better than my current comeback, which is crying.

Ooooooh. Aaaaah.
Oh no! You aren’t allowed to cry! (((hugs)))
It’s a pretty good drawing, would be much better minus thhe beard though.
Nah, make the waxing appointment. Then, years from now, when Julia has an adolescent fit about the pony she never got, you can explain that you were going to buy it but you had to wax so much - thanks to her attitude- that you couldn’t afford it.
Not that Julia will have an adolescent tantrums or attitudes. This is just in case.
Kids can be so cruel.:)
She is one heck of an artist though!
Maybe you could sell her artwork to pay for Christmas?
I use those little tiny lady-like electric shaver things (they look like an ink pen). Don’t tell anybody.
You have to get that epilator — It’s GREAT. Check out my post.You can do it yourself!
How can kids hurt our feelings so easily? Aren’t we supposed to be unaffected by their comments? They really hurt sometimes!
But make the waxing appt. anyway, it feels so good once the initial pain subsides.
You can also have Julia do drawings of people for cash.
Good God woman. I hope you kept that waxing appointment!
Hahahahahahahahaha!
Divine, you are. Excess hair and all.
You don’t want to know how European I have become when it comes to body hair…
