In looking at others' photos today, I viewed a photo of a silly band. In thinking about it, I loved how the photographer captured a fad and important part of every day life. I wondered if future generations will know what that dinosaur shaped thingy was all about.
Then, I went shopping. And bought tampons.
When Proctor and Gamble introduced their new product as being "fun", I thought they were just ridiculous. Sorry, P&G, nothing about a tampon is fun to me.
I swore I would never buy those colorfully wrapped tampons as I felt the new casing was just a marketing ploy.
But staring at the store shelf today and analyzing my options, I thought "Hmmm ... I need a photo for today .... I could be like Christi and show a fad." So I broke down and bought them.
On the way home, I realized I really need to get over my issue with the packaging .... the colors are fun ... I would rather see the bright colors than the white ugly paper when I go scrounging for them in my purse. I KNOW that in my teenage years, I would have much preferred pretty packaging.
I may not be as stubborn as I think I am - after all. :0)

I almost peed my pants when I read that this was photo of tampons. And then come to find out my silly band was the inspiration for the photo. Love it!
