Cheapest Haircut
Posted on May 8, 2005 by Ching under Life.
I just love how my hair smells and feels after a haircut. You probably can’t tell from this picture, but I really did get my hair cut. It’s three inches shorter and I’ve got long bangs now. Short layers, long bangs – same difference. Brian actually wanted it shorter. Probably about above the shoulder or shoulder length. With all of the layers, though, it looks pretty short on the front. I figured this was a good compromise. It’s long, but the layers satisfy what Brian wants. It’s amazing how lighter my hair feels after a simple three inch trim. Speaking of my haircut, it is the cheapest haircut I have ever gotten. The $7 tip I gave to Brittany actually cost more than the $5 that I paid for my haircut.
The haircut only cost me only $5 because I had a $26 certificate to Eric Fisher. Jackie had won it at the KANSEL Team Trivia fundraising event a couple of Fridays ago. She gave it to me because she said she would never use it. It works out perfect because that’s where I get my haircut anyway. Brian won a $10 gift certificate to Marchello’s which we gave to her in exchange.
It has been way too long since my last haircut. My ends were actually starting to split. With finances being tight, we can’t really afford to spend money on unnecessary expenses. And please don’t bring up my waxings because I truly feel that they are a necessity. I just can’t stand being hairy!
Actually, you should all be proud of me because I haven’t done any shopping in forever. It’s probably been six months. That’s quite an accomplishment since I used to be such a shopaholic. I’m much better now. Of course, you all know that I just went from one addiction to another. Instead of shopping, I just have lots and lots of sex these days. I’ve discovered that orgasms give me the same euphoric feeling that I used to get from shopping. Only cheaper! Speaking of shopping, we did get Brian some jeans last week. We had to buy him some because he had outgrown all of his old ones. He needs size 36″ waist jeans now. We got a couple of jeans for him at Old Navy for about $20. It’s amazing! One of mine usually sets us back three times that amount. So really I have watch my weight not just because I don’t want to get fat, but also because I can’t afford to buy new clothes! We also got him a pair of shoes yesterday. At less than $40, they weren’t too expensive. He said he needed them because his other camel-colored slip on shoes have this pungent odor that won’t go away. I’m not sure the shoes are the problem, really. I’m thinking now we probably should have bought some foot spray or foot odor repellent powder or something. Just kidding, baby! You know I have to pick on you! Hey, I pick on myself, too.
I’m actually tempted to share my Jessica Simpson moment at the fundraiser, but I’m afraid that you’ll all think I’m a complete idiot. I’m really not. I just like acting dumb because I’m less intimidating that way. I remember giving Jason that line, and he replied, “Like you could really intimidate someone with your barely five foot frame.” Maybe he’s right. But people think I’m funny when I act retarded and blurt out my ridiculous opinions.. Or is it that they are laughing at how much of an idiot I am?
Sometimes I wish I were a blonde, white girl so that people wouldn’t question my intelligence when I have my spacy moments (which seem to happen quite frequently; so frequently that Brian is convinced that I was blonde in a past life, if you believe in that sort of thing). Instead they would just accept it. LOL!
