Setting:  My bathroom, post shower, yesterday.

Me: (to myself) Hey... I wonder if I could make these stupid hair extensions curly?  That would look even more'80s than if I used hot rollers.  I'm totally going to try.

(ten minutes and half a bottle of scrunch spray later...)

Me:  I did it!  I achieved perfect '80s hair!  It's huge!  It's just the right combination of big and curly and wavy!  My hair looks just like Tawny Kitaen's!

(runs downstairs)

Me:  Fletch!  Fletch!  Check out my hair!  What do you think?

Fletch:  Wow, you look just like... (long, thoughtful pause) David Coverdale.

Apparently my '80s included these sunglasses.  Shameful.
