An Oil Spill

Me: Some of the nurses were talking last week about using olive oil to restore dry hair. Genius here tried it and bathed her head in oil. Moral of the story: shampoo doesn't adequately remove oil.

Andrew: hahahahahahahahahahahahaha I am trying to contain my laughter.... ERIN YOU MORON!! I LOVE YOU

Me: Seriously, I've washed my hair like 5 times AND I AM STILL LIKE THE FREAKING GULF COAST!

Andrew: Call BP they're good at this stuff. OH MY GOSH I'M EFFING DYING!

Me: Okay. Wash number 6: FAIL. I refuse to use dish soap in my hair. Shoot. Why did I ever listen to them?

Andrew: hahahahaha You might need the laundry detergent. I have extra strength. And it's hypoallergenic :)

Me: ANDREWWW! I FEEL SO STUPID!

Andrew: Remember, we've all done stupid things and you will do a LOT more in your life. The grease-cutting dish soap might be your best bet.

Me: I'm gonna see if it miraculously looks less oil-slick-like in the morning. Oh my gosh, This is almost a more stupid thing to do than....

Andrew: HAHAHAHAHAHA GIRL!

Me: What if all my hair falls out? Or if detergent/dish soap isn't affective on human hair? OH SHOOT ANDREW THEY USED HUMAN HAIR TO ABSORB SOME OF THE OIL IN THE GULF I AM SO SCREWED.

  1. Actually, animal rescue people use dish soap on animals caught in oil spills, so it'll probably be safe and effective on your hair. Last time I looked at the supermarket, there were photos of baby penguins and otters or whatever on the different scents of Dawn, as if they were saying "see, this is baby-penguin-de-oiling scent, and this is baby-otter-de-oiling scent..."
