You have no idea the week I've had with this hair.

"Are my contacts in by any chance?" I asked the contact lady and gave her my name.
"Why yes! I just called your house and left a message on your machine telling you they're ready."
"Isn't that funny? I'm on my way here to see if they're ready and your calling me to tell me they are, I was told a week but it's only been 6 days, I thought I'd check anyway, this is great."
"I'll go get them." The contact lady said and also, "Cute hair cut by the way." And she went to the back room.
I looked behind me to see who she was talking to and there wasn't anyone back there. To the left and right of me, no one. I went to the mirror and checked, 'Yep that's the same hair that's given me nothing but trouble all week.' I struggled with it every morning barely making it to work on time. Huh.
"Here are your contacts."
"Thank you and you have no idea the week I've had with this hair, thanks."
She smiled at me and I was on my way with a new attitude towards life. It's amazing how great you feel when you realize you don't have to shave your head.

I live in the perpetual wind tunnel here in Texas. I feel your pain with the bad hair week.

Hair: It's what we love to hate but when it does what we want, it's better than chocolate..well, maybe.

I threatened to cut mine into one of the "bobs" that are popular right now. Hubby gave me the stink eye.

Have to shave it? Nah, I just like to shave it. Besides, I look better without hair :D Speaking of, I better go and remember to give myself another haircut. It's been 2 weeks and I actually had bedhead this morning ;)
