My Hair

I'll post the pictures when my dad gets them developed, but for now I'll just have to tell you all- my long hair is gone! I went to Great Clips and got it hacked off today for Locks of Love. It was so easy to do- to just not get my hair cut, and it can really help a cancer patient who needs a wig, so you all should do it! It feels so odd to have it gone. I keep trying to pull it back and there's nothing there. That just shows that it was habitual rather than practical that I tried to smooth my hair. It was nice to put on my coat without having to flip my hair out. It gets so static-filled since its so fine and thin. I wanted to get it done this week because I am going up to International Aid for my project tomorrow and I want to present as professional an image as I can. They are trusting me with a big project and I'm a little freaked out by it, and I think it'll help me psychologically to look put together tomorrow too.

I may get lost tomorrow because I'm going to Spring Lake after work, and then I'm driving from their to either Stacie's house to carpool, or to a coffee house in Allegan for Mallory's jazz concert. You may never see me again. I'll simply be wandering up and down the pinky side of the mitten forever.

Hahahaha! Oh Carrie, I LOVE that you wrote "the pinky side of the mitten!" And I also love even more that I know what you're referring to, unlike very very few people out here!
Oh, Michigan...
It's midnight. I have ten out of 35 pages of a unit plan matrix done. I desperately needed to laugh - thanks!

Thanks for your phone call today when you were in GH! I wasn't in need of any pizza, but I got a smile at the memory of when we had Clover Bar with my family. Remember how my dad made us salmon for breakfast? Welcome to my family!

Yes, I remember salmon for breakfast. I never liked fish really before that, and most of it is still too fishy for me, but I've eaten it a couple times. (Mostly when I was fasting from meat.)
