Waste of a Great Hair Day

You know those days where it starts out sunny, you take a shower and skip the conditioner and the blow dryer and say, it's alright it can get curly/wavy today, I’m going to have it in a bun for work anyway. Then your ex-girlfriend calls and says she and her new boy are coming over and you think (YAY!) I get to meet him, a person who's making S**** happy. Then you get a call, and she says the girlfriend after you who also happens to be his ex is coming too. Then you find out that both girlfriend-after-you and the new boy are stoner/pot-head skippers on the verge of being expelled, then you tell them you have work soon (which is kinda a lie, you have work in and hour) so you sit and read and go to work and work's okay and then you get out at midnight and roll down the windows and your hair- the one you didn't do anything with this morning- is perfect that nicely volumized but no where near the 80s, straight with just the hint of a wave at the bottom and you think “you picked today?” Your hair picked the day it got covered by a hat, put in a bun, dyed 4 days ago, and steamed with hot water and milk ALL DAY to be perfect? What a WASTE of a GREAT hair day.

Tirza and Will Visit

Tirza and I had lots of fun, I bought a little coyote and a wolf stuff animals they're so cute. then we ate at the cafe at the NMAI. the exhibit that I was hoping for wasn't there, instead was new Seneca stuff, which while cool, weren't neither the amazing jewelry work nor the driftwood mosaics nor the granite sculptures and oil paintings I was hoping for. So, minor disappointment. The cafe was good, if expensive, definitely a tourist trap though it had an interesting theme- food from each of the different regions of Native Americans. Then we went to the Phillips collection which was awesome (3 VanGoghs!) which basically made my day. Then we hung out at DuPont circle and went into the HRC store where I got my beanie (finally) and a HRC mug YAY... and a job offer, which was greatly amusing, seeing as I TOTALLY support the cause, I might actually think about it in the fall (easily accessible by metro). Then we went to crystal city and picked up Will, Tirza's hubby, and went home. Then ate sushi at the BEST sushi place in the world, Burke Fortune House (yes, they know my name) and we wandered around Walmart looking for a plain black shirt, to no avail BUT we did find The Craft for $5.50 which is awesome, so I got it.
