Bad hair day

Last night, after I got home from the gym, I took a shower and washed my hair. As soon as I stepped out of the shower, my phone was ringing, and it was my aunt -- calling to try to make plans for something-or-other for a week from now, when my dad's in town. I talked to her for a long time -- couldn't get her off the phone -- and then I made dinner. By the time I finished eating, it was well after 10 pm -- and I never got a chance to dry -- or even brush -- my hair. I decided to let it be, and went straight to sleep.

This morning I woke up with the world's biggest Jew-fro. I mean, even during my 12 years in New Jersey, my hair had never managed to get that big before today. Not even my typical librarian-chic hair clip could contain it.



I'm hoping there's a little room in my budget for a real haircut soon.

I know I probably shouldn't laugh, but that's very funny...

hahah. Oh jeez...I have had that hair day. Only, mine would be frizzy-brillo pad hair. I mean, WTF. =-) Those are the days I thank god for hairbands.

It was poufy on top. No rubber band, barrette, or hair clip could tame it. The only thing that helped was taking a shower and starting from scratch.

Well, I could have worn a hat, but not to work.
