harley CHI-c

I am now the proud owner of this CHI flat iron! For the whole two days I've had it, I love it! There's a nifty little story to my getting this particular CHI. I asked Amie to get the CHI for me at her beauty supply. I was prepared to spend $99. Laura advised me to just get a plain black one, maybe the older model, because it was supposed to be better that the newer ones that come in funky colors. I told Amie this and she checked out the beauty supply. When she got there, the supplier was offereing a $89 special on a camoflauge model, and the black one I requested was going to be over $100. The other option was a $99 pink one with little ribbons on it for breast cancer awareness month or a model that was black with "scroll-y" thingys on it. I told her to get the black "scroll-y" one since I really wasn't into camo or pink ribbons and I didn't want to spend more money. Well, I thought she said "scroll", but she really said "skull-y". When I picked it up from Amie, I came to discover the miscommunication -- my CHI had skulls with angel wings on it!! What the heck?!? Amie & I had a good laugh. Who knew I was a biker chic?


The box also contained another prize -- a "skull-y" hat!! Who in their right mind would ever wear this thing in public? Notice the CHI in red sequins above the ear, a nice touch. Mark is contemplating getting me a Harley jacket, chaps and bandana to go with it for my b-day.

Congratulations! That is quite the biker Chi-c flat iron. Welcome to the Chi world. It's a much straighter and happier world!

You rebel you!!! Nice hat! I only recently discovered flat irons. I have to confess that mine is a 30 dollar Target cheapy...I can't quite bring myself to spend a hundred bucks on one. I'm curious to see how you like yours.

You've been busy - all your bottling looks great! I've hardly done anything with my produce this year. Mostly given it away to more ambitious folks like you.

Hillarious! Who knew you had this side? The canning, shopping, and hiking, yes...but biker chic? Whoa! Weird!!

Ha! Well, you missed Sturgis 2008, but you'll have to make sure to go for the 2009 rally.

Okay! I need the facts. How is your Chi straightener different than the one I bought at Wal-Mart 5 years ago for Erin? Just wondering?
