Last night I had a nightmare about a paper that I turned in four days ago. How is a paper coming back to haunt me in my dreams? I woke up breathing hard and wondering what in the world was going on and if it had really happened. You would think that this paper pulled out a gun on me or something! Obviously I am thinking way too much about it. I need a vacation!!
Sara is coming into town today. I'm excited because we haven't been able to do much together this summer. It's really weird. I never thought I would be so excited to see my sister. I guess that's what growing up friends together our whole lives does to us. This is the first summer that we have spent apart...I am actually looking forward to moving back to live with her. Crazy what life does to you!

Hair
The only thing worse than a bad hair day is a bad haircut. I got a really bad hair cut the other day...Actually, I got my hair butchered. I've been going to the same person for years but she is out for a couple of months. I decide to try someone new...The girl my sister uses. Sara always has a cute haircut. I call for this new girl and she has picked up and moved across the state! I can't drive four hours for a haircut! So I say, well, give me anyone. That was my first mistake. I only thought that all the girls working at this place would be good. I don't even know if this girl knew what she was doing. I've got naturally curly hair and she wanted to dry it straight and then not even put a straightening iron to it!! Anyone who has thick, curly hair, or has seen mine, knows that if it gets dried without a flat iron to it, it looks like it's straight out of the '80's. If big, fluffy, '80's hair were in, would be cool.
I have layers...Which makes big hair bigger. I thought that I might grow my layers out for a change and so I told her that I just needed them trimmed up and wanted to keep most of my length. I don't think she knows what the word 'length' means. She must have cut off 2 and 1/2 inches. (1 inch my butt!) My top layer is now so short that my bangs hang longer than it. When she finally finished cutting everything off and trying to style it, she said something about all the men that would be coming in later...This led me to believe that she specializes in men's hair and has no idea how to cut layers. I will be wearing my hair up for quite a while!
Anyways...The point of all of my rambling is, take time to figure out who is cutting your hair and how many years of experience they have. Check out whether or not they specialize in men or women's hair, etc. I've never been jealous of my boyfriend when it came to hair...Most girls aren't jealous of men's hair. But this is one time that I am. He recently got a bad haircut and shaved his head bald...I can't do that.
If bad things come in threes, watch out. You could be next to get a bad haircut. I would use caution when going to the beauty salon!
I should be thankful though...At least I have hair.

All-Stars Game
Yesterday I went to Minute Maid Park with Jess to watch the All-Stars Futures game. We got to see the up and coming players in the in minors looking to move into the majors. Some of these guys were as young as 18! What an awesome experience for them to play at Minute Maid!
Neither of us knew it before the game, but after the Futures game, the Legends and Celebrity game was played! I was four rows away from the field watching Nick Lachey, Charlie Maher (The Bachelorette), Jimmy Kimmel, Bill Rancic (winner of The Apprentice), and Sarah Silverman. It was a great surprise to find out that I would be watching these people play softball and having a good time! A once and a lifetime experience...How often is the All-Stars game played in Houston?
It would have been a perfect day at the ballpark except for two men sitting behind us yelling at the celebrities about how they were swinging like a girl. Come on guys, they are out there to have a good time and provide entertainment...They are entertainers for a living. Who cares if they can play softball or not? If you wanted to see a softball or baseball game, go home and watch television. There were plenty of baseball games on. Don't yell stupid things like "Kimmel and Bits" at Jimmy Kimmel because he doesn't care. He's there to entertain with comedy, not with his baseball or softball skills. Don't yell curse words so that everyone around you can hear...Parents being their young children to the baseball park to have a nice family outing. Don't spoil it because your vocabulary is too small to come up with other ways to express your frustration. (Even though you should have none at a celebrity softball game.) Bottom line - don't make yourself look stupider than you already are.
