I Survived The Ten Commandments! Or, "How I learned to stop worrying and avoid cutting bangs."

I love the movie, "The Ten Commandments". I also love, "Ben Hur". I love them in the same way that I love the Indiana Jones movies, only not nearly at the same intensity. 

That's not why I'm so happy though. I have overcome a major seasonal malfunction. You see, every SINGLE year when they show, "The Ten Commandments" on TV, I want to cut bangs because of this woman...

Her name is Anne Baxter and she plays Nefertiri in the movie. I LOVE this hairstyle and it's partially because of her. I've just love that Egyptian look, probably due to all those old Mummy movies I grew up watching. I also always wanted to look like Virginia Christine from, "The Mummy's Curse". It's tough to find a good picture of her, but here are a couple...

But you see, when I cut bangs, I do not look like either of these women. BECAUSE THEY WERE WEARING WIGS. When I cut bangs, I look like Spock. Or one of the Beatles. So for the first time this year, I reminded myself of these differences and actually managed to resist temptation. I did NOT cut bangs. I did, however, dye my hair black. Baby steps.

By the way, this is how I looked with bangs. It's a big ole ouch on the eyes.

So rejoice for me! I learned to stop cutting my own hair this Easter!
