Resourceful

My hair dryer broke. Yes, another one
I guess it developed a grudge against me, as it started shooting big ass sparks at my head accompanied by loud popping noises.
It wasn't even a year old.
Yeah, it was a cheepie ConAir $18 job, but all I do is diffuse my curls, 15 minutes - tops - each day.
So I tossed it out and resurrected my last broken blow dryer. See, I keep an old one on hand, unless they have a built-in Uzi like this one.
The old dead one was indeed that....dead.
What's a Curly Girl to do????
She sticks her head in the oven, that's what.
Seriously.
Hey, the curls need heat and no, I didn't stick my head all the way in. I crank it up to 350, crack the door a little bit and dry the girls.
I know.
Dylan saw this and I think he's ready to commit me. Yes, even my 10 year old knows it's wrong. It's just wrong.
So I'm in the market for a new dryer.
Jen, my boss, thinks I should get one of those professional $100 jobbies. I'd be very happy with another $18 flame thrower.
Suggestions?

Oh my gosh, that was so funny! I am right there with you on the hair dryers....I KNOW an expensive one would be great, but I can't stay away from what you so poignantly referred to as an "$18 flame thrower". So funny.

Maybe there's some kind of special hair-drying attachment you could get for your oven.
