I have internet!

Yesterday was fairly entertaining. A massive amount of lightning and thunder woke me up around 6:30, which frightened me. That is not a pleasant way to wake up. I had heard on the news that there were supposed to be thunderstorms in the early morning and scattered thunderstorms for most of the week. Being from the bay where this generally means it’ll actually be rainy I put on my boots and headed out to get my hair cut. About two blocks from my apartment I realized that this was a horrible mistake. Apparently the weatherman meant there would be one thunderstorm during the night and a crapload of humidity and sun for the rest of the day. Walking around in those boots was absolute torture, especially since everybody else was wearing flip flops. I hate that weatherman.

Anyway, the hair place was right next to Wrigley Field (cue obligatory picture of the Wrigley Field sign).

The salon was literally the only shop on the street that wasn’t a bar or bank (well, there was Subway too). My stylist told me stories about how drunk people accidentally wander into the salon looking for a bar on game days and just look confused for a while. This led me to the conclusion that Cubs games aren’t all that different from A’s games. I think I’m going to have to go to a Cubs game. And yes, I realize I'm one of the few people that would go to Wrigelyville not to see the Cubs, but to get a hair cut instead. That's just the way I work.

Oh and I also got my hair cut. It is super short now, which is nice. I didn’t really like that awkward phase it was at, where it wasn’t short nor was it long. I do not have the patience to grow it out again, so I chopped it off. Here’s a picture of the back of my head. I tried to take a picture of what it looks like from the front, but I couldn’t get over how silly I felt taking my own picture like that. Take what you can get :)

Look how silky and straight it is! And the hair person only used one product to get my hair to do that! Well, she also used $100 flat iron that apparently locks in moisture instead of frying your hair. Now I want that flat iron. . .and this is where someone takes my credit card away from me. (Also, I just realized you get a pretty decent of shot of my bathroom there, I'm so classy).

I also finally got my internet today. I'm excited to be back online whenever I want to be.
