The Haircut: Top Ten

I've been wanting to cut my hair for a long time now, but I was afraid of the result. Finally I came to the point where any consequences that I might feel as a result of cutting it did not outweigh the benefits.

I brought the following picture to my appointment as the style I wanted:

When her mom made the first cut, I wasn't exactly ready to see that much hair on the ground. But once she styled it, there was not turning back. I'm so happy!

Here are the Top Ten Reasons I Cut My Hair:

10) I had to cut back on conditioner costs.

9) I couldn't wait to be continually called "cute."

8) My legs were jealous that they weren't the longest anymore.

7) It would give my Dad something to Sudoku about.

6) I can now finish my shower before running out of hot water.

5) My hair now has style so my clothes don't have to.

4) It was any easy way to lose 2 pounds.

3) When I almost fatally cut my thumb, I realized how fleeting life was.

2) I heard men like long hair on a woman. I had long hair but no man. Maybe with short hair I can hope for a man to bring up that delightful "cute" word.

1) I was tired of being mistaken for Megan Fox.
