Today, hoping to avoid the rain because I had just gotten an expensive perm, I ducked under an awning. At that moment, the store manager shook the awning, and about 6 hours of rain dumped on my head. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I spent 30 minutes fixing my hair to perfection, only to step outside and have it immediately ruined by a freak gust of rain and wind. The only thing I accomplished was looking like a disheveled bird's nest for the rest of the day. FML
Today, I was walking to work when it was starting to pour down sideways. I was pretty early anyway, so, I decided to duck into a bus shelter and let it pass. Suddenly, a big truck comes and drenched me with the biggest puddle. Soaking from head to toe. FML
Today, I was hurrying for the bus home from work. It was raining and I had my umbrella up. As I hurried by two women, I felt my umbrella hit one of them on the head. I turned to apologise and saw her standing with her hands on her newly bald head. My umbrella had lifted her wig off her head. FML
Today, someone stole my umbrella. It was pouring heavily, and I was using it at the time. FML
Today, my hair got stuck in my umbrella. I asked for help from passers-by, but all I got was weird looks as they hurried past me. FML
Today, I got caught in the rain without an umbrella. I arrived at work looking like a wet rat, and my boss sent me home to change. I forgot my keys at work and ended up locked out of my apartment in the rain. I can't seem to catch a break. FML
Today, it started raining unexpectedly. My daughter and I didn't have an umbrella, so my daughter raised one of my big flabby arms and put it over her head to protect her from the rain. It worked. FML
Today, I walked twenty minutes in rain, winds that almost knocked me over, and face-fulls of stinging hailstones. Less than a minute after I finally got inside, the weather cleared up, the sun came out, and a rainbow appeared. FML
Today, the mall got evacuated while I was getting my hair colored. I am now standing outside of a crowded mall, wearing a showercap. FML
Today, I was walking through town with my hood up and noticed people giving me funny looks. It wasn't until I got home that I realised the umbrella I was holding over my head had been closed the whole time. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

You're not supposed to shower right after a perm. :( that sucks!

no, with perms, you can't get it wet for at least 24 hours else it will fall.

Doesn't matter. The rain will not affect it. Now, if there had been shampoo in the rain water, that's another story. Water on it's own is fine.

Here's a few points I must make: 1. Wavy perms are totally coming bak in style. Poodle perms are stuck in the 80's. 2. Getting a brand new perm wet with water is A-OK. You can shower the day of as long as you don't use shampoo or conditioners (chemicals in those mess up the chemicals in the perm solution). Swimming is also ok as long as the water isn't chlorinated. ~Sorry about this long comment but it was bugging me! ~I know all this cause I got a wavy perm two weeks ago and my hairdresser even wet it! It's still going strong!

Why did you choose a rainy day to get a perm? Like...did you not think to check the weather report or make sure to NOT be outside to be caught in the rain? :-/
