My Glorious Pillow Dream
Posted by Ryan Woods
I've always had a fascination with eye lashes. Has anyone ever seen an eye lash grow? Although I've never done any official study I've pretty much come to the conclusion that 1.) eye lashes grow at night. 2.) eye lashes grow instantly. Nobody has ever seen a half grown lash, only the full fledged long lash.
Anyway, I digress from the story at hand. Because of my fascination and because of the odd personalities that myself and a friend possessed a few years back we decided that we would create an eye lash pillow. You may not know this, but there is nothing softer than a pile of eye lashes. Don't let the coarse eye brows fool you, they hold no comparison to the beautiful and elegant lash.
So we collected our lashes in a small vile all the while knowing that every night the lashes would instantly regrow themselves. Every time I came over I would grab a few lashes between my fingers and place them in the precious glass vile. We did this for months until one day his mom threw them away. The experiment failed and the pillow was never created. I still dream of one day sleeping on a %100 eye lash pillow, but until then I shall settle for what I've got, a slobber stained, toothpaste smeared, hair covered Walmart pillow.
Five years later...I find out from my wife that during those two years she specifically remembered wondering why my eye lashes were so thin. Before I recounted this story to her she commented about how she wondered why my lashes were so thin but how happy she was with my beautiful long and luscious lashes now.
