hair today

word on the street is that the prez should go down to the gulf and solve the oil spill. right. he's a fabulous guy and all, but he's not aquaman. what he needs to do is establish a task force with a strong leader, a retired general perhaps, and empower the task force to fix the leak and clean up the damage. (did he do this already and i missed it?) unless the plan is to allow harm to the environment in order to dispose folks favourably to his green energy plan in which case doing nothing to fix it would be the best maneuver. meanwhile, BP is stopping dividend payments thru the end of the year and that hurts no one but the dividend receivers, which in large part are brits on pension. this is not good because the last thing we need are a horde of nasty snaggletoothed pensionless brits on the dole.

one of the plans to contain the spill involved using human hair as a sorbent. (human hair sorbent should never be confused with human hair sorbet.) speaking of human hair, i got a hair cut today. i liked it so much, i went back and had the rest cut to match. (*rimshot*) seriously... i was just in there a couple weeks ago, and when i left that day i had a feeling it was still too long and i should have gone back in right then. but did i? no. (those days are gone forever, you should just let 'em go.)

last time, i did not get my fave stylist who i will tell you her real name is tawanna. "ta wanna haircut?" yes, please, me wanna haircut. so, she was busy cutting someone else's hairs last time, and today again, she was busy. i could make an appt with her, but that costs an extra dollar-three-eighty and i am cheap so i will take my chances from the stylist grab bag, but walking in past the others to get to the chair of whoever is the winner winner chicken dinner of the day... makes one feel a bit of a cut slut. cannot be helped, however. luck of the draw and all that, what what. so ANYWAYS, my hair was too long before and i told today's girl all about it and how i should have come right back in, but did i, no. so when she was done cutting she was like - "i'm only charging you for a kid's cut b/c you were just in here a couple weeks ago." yipee ki yay!

so the cut was $13 so i tipped her $3. i have no idea if that is even a good tip, but it's over 20%. i usually just add the tip onto the bill and run the card, but today i chose to pay with cash. why? who the hell knows! but so then i am left with handing her money and so i am like - "uhn?" fairly certain that is actually what i said to her as i handed it to her - "uhn?" - and she was all, "oh, thanks!" and i was all, "yeah, thanks!" i am so stellar with the live convos!
