Bless me hairdresser for I have sinned
Bless me hairdresser for I have sinned. It’s been almost eight months since my last haircut.
Hey, where’d you go?
Oh, there you are.
What?
Yes! I can too see!!
See? I just have to put it behind my ears, like this.
Yeah I know I need to get it cut.
Probably shoulder length. What do you think?
What do you mean women my age?
Oh, and I suppose I’ll need the roots touched up a little.
Okay! So my roots are half-way down my back. You know what I mean.
It’s just that I’ve been so busy.
Well, like doing things and stuff. I do a lot of stuff.
And besides that I work from home now so I’m not really out in the public eye very much.
I put it up in a clip when I go to the grocery store or to the doctor which is mostly the only places I go lately.
Probably around five or six pounds, I guess. Why? Does it really show that much?
It’s just that I eat when I feel guilty. I’ve been feeling guilty about a lot of things lately.
Like this morning. Wayne told me about a girl who was killed in a car crash. When he told me her name it sounded familiar. I said I hoped it wasn’t the girl I know, that I hoped it was someone else with the same name. Than I felt so guilty. I had just wished that someone else was dead. I ate a whole coconut cream pie. And bacon.
Yes. Put me down for Friday around eleven a.m.
No, I’m on my way to lunch. Wanna come?
Yeah, it was nice seeing you again too.
Sort of.

I love hair clips!
I do a lot of stuff, too, but I can’t remember what it is, exactly.
I love coconut pie and bacon….but not together!
I love this post.
I hope your hairdresser forgives you.

ReformingGeek: I’m sure she will. I’ll bring her a coconut pie.
Ah, shades of Bob Newhart. Funny stuff.

Frank: I love Bob Newhart. His humor is so droll. Do you remember Pat Paulson? His humor was a lot like Newhart’s. It always cracked me up. Thanks for the comparison.
mmmm… coconut cream pie with bacon crust…
Nooter´s last blog ..A Day At The Park
Nooter: yesssss. mmmmm. with bacon topping.
“coconut cream pie. And bacon”
Damn. I should have been born in the USA. Fantastic! :=)

Which is why, in a sad way, we’re grateful for our baldness. Five minutes of shaving our noggin every day = no hair products, bad hair days or style shame. Sort of.

Mikeeessongs: Yeah, ain’t America great!
WAM: That’s what my husband tells me.
You men have it made!
Your hairdresser understands. The coconut pie sounds grand. And it’s understandable that you didn’t want the person you know to have met an untimely demise. It wasn’t that you wished it were someone else (not truly). Just hoped it wasn’t her. Okay, I’m rambling now.

Roschelle: Feel free to ramble all you like. I enjoyed reading your comments. And pie will cure almost anything.
Usually I have these long conversations with my hairdresser when I’m there not before I get there. It’s funny how much you tell the hairdresser that you probably wouldn’t tell your own spouse.
Unfinished Rambler´s last blog ..Thank God for the rabbits and our house. Amen.
Unfinished Rambler:
In that case, you may want to make sure your spouse never talks to your hairdresser. {kidding} Yeah, it’s strange the bonds we have with them and the things we talk about while we’re being beautified. 
If my wife didn’t remind me, and forcefully, I’d probably never get my hair cut or clip my fingernails. After a few years of this, I’d probably start to look like Howard Hughes during his crazy years. Except I wouldn’t have any money, so I’d probably get arrested for looking so weird and get tossed in the asylum, where, ironically, they’d probably give me a haircut, discover that I’m not really insane and be forced to release me. Then the cycle would start all over again.
Hey, this might be a post on my own blog! Thanks for the inspiration!
