Hair's a Mildly Embarrassing Scenario
I went to get a haircut tonight at Hair's Karen, the world's greatest hair salon. Karen herself was at the reception desk, taking my updated phone and address info, when she made a realization.
"Hey," she said, "I read your blog about us."
Despite the fact that Mesteeblogger is read by tens of people, this was still surprising to me.
"If I remember correctly, it wasn't very nice," she continued.
Oh boy. I quickly tried to remember what I had written -- something about not being able to get an appointment...I think I blamed it on myself...that was it, right? Yeah. Okay, not so bad.
I summed up what I could remember from the entry and Karen graciously accepted my explanation. I was still nervous that in an effort to be funny, I may have written something borderline offensive.
I returned home, fired up the laptop, and took a quick look for the entry. Ah, yes. A mock break-up letter addressed to Hair's Karen, explaining that I was leaving for the newly-discovered Mario's Salon in Davis Square. That's unfortunate. Karen, if you or any of your fantastic stylists are reading this, let the record show that I have yet to return to Mario's since that day. I'm declaring right now that I am dedicated to Hair's Karen as long as I live within a ten mile radius. Unless, of course, I decide to start cutting my own hair again -- but let's hope my budget never forces me into that again.
I'll leave you with a little time-waster. I believe I've linked to it before, but it's totally worth it.
Also, if you're in the mood for music, why not watch the a video from The Two Man Gentlemen Band? Seriously, why not? Fine, be that way.
