Nervous Energy and a Haircut
Posted by: icagirl on: July 23, 2008
Okay, so I realize I’m totally over-blogging today, but I’m a pile of nervous energy – whenever I’m high stress, I tend to get all excited and stuff. I love being overworked – I tend to be a pretty decent worker; you know, pretty motivated, a steady understanding of what’s going on at work. When I get bored, I become a terrible worker, highly unmotivated and tend to spend the majority of my under-utilized day windexing my desk and refiling files that I’ve filed many, many times. But, when I’m overworked – when there are just too many projects and not enough time, I am at my personal best. I know, because people keep telling me. There is such a drastic difference that my boss(es) tend to acknowledge my positive attitude during really tough times. But today, my highly energized self is mostly nerves from the fact that today is the day of my much-anticipated haircut. I’ve been absolutely plaguing Boy with nonstop hair questions – perhaps that will end today… perhaps not.

I heard about your surgery – such a bummer! If Harley wasn’t so adorable, I would be mad at him for you… Hee hee…
The hair… is… the same, for the most part. I have bangs, but there was a high level of drama with regards to cutting it short. I saw two stylists in two days because the first one went kind of psycho – even though she agreed to cut my hair into something funky, after shampooing it, she decided (without telling me) that she was just going to trim it. When she stopped cutting and started styling I was like “Hello! Didn’t we discuss short hair? At least bangs?” She refused to cut it, telling me it wouldn’t look right and I wouldn’t like it and my hair was so pretty long.
Well, after we debated about what exactly I was paying her for, I left with trimmed hair (the manager saved me from having to pay anything more than $20.00 when the stylist tried to charge me $80.00 for basically nothing). The next day, I went to work where my friend sent me to see her stylist. It went well, he cut in some bangs (for free – totally love him) and next Thursday, he’ll be doing some lowlights and things of that nature. I will be going for the super-short cut sometime in September/October I think.

Wow, drama is right. You work up to get it cut and come out with a trim.
Just keep in mind how warm hair keeps your neck and shoulders. If you do get it cut, make sure you buy some lovely scarves to throw around your neck for the winter.
No need to be mad at Harley, I certainly wasn’t. He was caught up in a moment playing with his new girlfriend, I can’t deny him of love. ha ha ha. I think your path has already been paved, I was meant to hurt my knee so it could in turn heal properly this time. Speaking of which, better get my 20 minutes on the bike over with. Best of luck with the hair.
