Thank god for JC Penny's

Well, I went to my final today - german. Not too bad, but I hope I did well.

Right after the final, I went back to the hairstylist that wrecked my hair - hoping I'd find someone else there. Nope, same girl. I went to her and said that it seemed a bit too choppy in some areas and it was sticking out all funny. I should have said what I really thought - that it was the worst haircut ever and she should be banned form touching a pair of scissors ever again. However, me being me, i just tried to show her and was inside wishing someone else was there. She offered to use the razor on my hair, but I backed out saying, no.. I'd just need to get used to it. Lying out of my teeth!

I headed straight to JC Penny with tears in my eyes, staring at the clumpy mess that was my hair. A wonderful stylist named Ann was there and she remembered me from the past. I told her what happened and she looked it over. She was shocked. ALL of the parts of my hair were uneven, I had a wierd bald-like pattern going on, where it was long in the center, VERY short on the two sides of my bangs and then long again on the side of my head. PSYCHO CUTTER! So, poor Ann went through it with me and showed me the problem areas and we decided that a cut wouldn't be enough - it needed to be dyed with highlights in order to hide some of the problems and she had to show me a new spot for my part because it was ridiculous.

She whipped out the razor, made my hair all pointy in the back like I like it, got my bangs mostly under control and showed me how to fix it until it grew back again. /Sigh. I wish I could go back to my longer hair and re-start. That was a lot of anger and sobbing on my end that I didn't need.

But, thank god for Penny's! I have a hairstyle, not a muskrat on my head!


Now - I am back at work, sporting my new style and waiting for D to grab food and bring it to me. I'm starving! hehe I took a nap after all that stress and going to an 8am final. I got a good 2 1/2 hours.

Think I'll work through some of the icelandic sagas tonight and start writing names.
