The Worst Haircut Experience Of My Life

If I may be permitted to vent for a moment, I just received the worst treatment I’ve ever received from a barbershop–namely the The Haircut in the Stanford Shopping Center. 

Once I sat in the barber’s chair everything was out of my control–my hair was not cut as I asked, my head was manhandled as though I were a fidgety three-year-old child, and at the end the protective drape was ripped off my body and an industrial-strength blowdrier was run over me to remove any loose hair.

They never even asked me if I was happy with my haircut. I had to remain seated and ask if I could look in a mirror to see the results!

I still have stray hairs prickling my skin as I type this.

Most disappointing…

Sayings That Tickle Me

I’m really getting into off-the-wall proverbs.

Two of my favorites:

1) Buffalo can’t see its own butt. (I’m told it’s from Kenya)
2) Dogs bark at what they can’t understand. (Heraclitus)

One Year Anniversary

July 1st was our one-year anniversary here in the Bay Area… a year ago our life was full of cardboard boxes and lots of other fun stuff.

Wow–a lot has happened this year.
