My great new haircut, and how I've become a pain...

So lately, I've begun my transformation into the largest pain in Bob's butt that I can possibly be. It's all part of my scheme to make him leave me alone. For good. It consists of not answering his persistent calls, taking at least 2 days to respond to the message, and giving him the complete truth when it comes to when I can jump on his problems... "Not today, and probably not this week." After enough of this, I think that he'll be forced into considering me useless to him. EXACTLY what I wish to be.

So on to another subject, I went and got my hair cut the other day, a cheap cut at the SuperCuts® near our house. I chatted with the stylist, got what I thought was a normal Caesar cut, and left. I was pulling out of the parking lot, and looked into my rear view window of my 1996 Buick LeSabre only to see my bangs staring back at me. She apparently left the front of my hair, namely three cowlicks that I have named "Big Wave and the Demon Horns" long enough to elicit the attention of planes that fly too low. Hmmm... "Big Wave and the Demon Horns" is a really good name for a band... note to self... Anyway, I was a bit shocked, but was up for a change, and I am known to like my hair spikier than is good for me, so I've been wearing it the way she cut it for the past week. The next day, everyone, and I mean everyone was complimenting my haircut. I even had the owner of a salon for men's and boy's haircuts ask me who did my hair so that she could steal her for her place. She gave me a coupon for my next cut, and I gave her the girl's name. Worked out well. It should also be noted that every gay person that comes into Starbucks declares their undying love for my hair, thus solidifying it's stylistic validity. (As everyone knows, you have to be stylish to be gay.) Needless to say, I am pleased with all of the compliments, and will keep it this way for awhile at least.

Oh, and anyone who comes into my Starbucks, this is the week to order a regular coffee. We are using Starbucks 2004 Special Reserve Blend as our Coffee of the Week. I believe that they are doing this to get a bazillion people to buy the beans of this incredibly good, and incredibly expensive blend of limited edition coffee. On Friday night, one of my coworkers will be doing a coffee-tasting workshop at 9pm, and anyone interested should contact me so that I can sign them up.

Peace out.
