WHO am I and HOW did I get here??

I'm not sure I know me anymore! What has happened to me??  I look the same, but something has definitely changed, and I'm not sure I can pinpoint just when the change occurred!! Good grief.....I stand amazed at my new self!

I was just viewing pictures of my 15 yr old granddaughter......with newly acquired BLUE STREAKS in her beautiful, long, gorgeous blonde hair! AND I LIKE IT!!!  I think it looks great!!  (Remember when 'blue hair' was just for little old ladies??)  LOL  Not anymore!  Her mother tells me that in times past, my granddaughter has also had pink streaks....and green streaks.  WOW!  Wish I could've seen the PINK; that's my favorite color!!  If my DAUGHTER had gotten colored streaks in her hair at age 15, I'd have had a conniption fit!!  Now...I'm thinking it's a great look!!  (WHERE HAVE I GONE??)

I'm also thinking it'd be great if my granddaughter got her belly button pierced!  But, I'm not so sure it would'nt be a waste of time and money for my granddaughter to have it done....no one would ever see it!  She's much too modest to expose her midriff! (But that's a GOOD thing!)  She, on the other hand....wants to get her LIPS pierced!!  I think she told me they call it a "snake bite"??  A small ring on either side of the mouth...upper lip or lower?? I'm just not sure, but EITHER WAY.....I VOTE NO.....HELL NO!!!
I am totally opposed to pierced eyebrows as well, but I think that a very tiny, dainty stud in the nose, is very cute & appealing.  (WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO ME????)   I remember the days when I would have found this sort of thing abhorrent.... 

...Like TATTOOS.  I've always (until VERY recently) HATED tattoos on women!!!  Even now....I am very, very, very selective as to which ones I think are ART and seductively appealing....and which ones are simply the "barroom-slut/whore-dog" look that I so much detest!    My own beloved daughter-in-law has at least 2 or 3 tattoos that I know of.  They are all very tastefully done.....and each one commemorates a significant moment in her life.  Like a living diary of some sort. I think I rather like that idea!  (WHERE DID THE "OTHER" ME GO?)  I just wish I could determine when these mental changes in attitude & outlook occurred!  Are there more to come?? I just might end up being one cool, hip-hop-happenin' grandma!!   Time will tell, I guess!
