Hair
Evan doesn't read Lj anymore, so I don't need to hide this. It's not even some big deal anyway. I'm getting my hair cut short tomorrow. It's been short before and he knows I've been playing around with the idea, but I didn't tell him I made the appointment. I wake up several hours before him now (3 more months of this hip pain keeping me awake and the sleep deprivation people usually complain about with a newborn will seem like heaven to me), so I've got all this time to kill. I'm just going down the block and having my awesome stylist whack it off. I'm going to see how long it takes him to notice. It'll probably be about 10 seconds; 8 more than usual because he'll be groggy from having just woken up.
I know, I know, don't make hormone-filled decisions. This isn't actually one. I've been thinking about this for at least a year and got more and more bored as my hair grew longer and got more and more dry and cringed at all the split ends. I just don't care about getting my hair cut regularly and I really hate how much it costs. As a kid we were always taken to Supercuts or whatever but 5 or so years ago I decided I wanted a nice expensive cut with a real style, so I went to an actual fancy pants salon. The chick understood what I wanted though I was unintentionally vague and probably confusing and did a great job and I've been going to her ever since. I think I go twice a year. Paying $50 (plus tip) for a wash, cut, and style is just painful so I can't stomach going more often. Evan's lucky, he just buzzes his at home with an electric razor. I just can't go that short.
This is a really long post to just say, "I'm getting my hair cut tomorrow. Yay!" Wow. Do I like to blather on.
