Just another day in paradise

Just another day in paradise... So Amanda will be in town tommorrow... and I felt a pressing need to get my hair cut BEFORE she got into town... its hard having a diva for a daughter.. without her I would probably wear sweatpants daily and bathe only once a week.... so before I got the look of "oh realllly" I decided to get a quick hair cut... (unfortunately not from "her girl"-- but it will have to do...) Once home of course Mike noticed (barely) which brought up the conversation that he too might want to think of cutting his locks.. HA! His hair usually has something to do with his mood.. which lately hasn't been all roses.. We forgive rather quickly though as its been a tough couple of weeks for us all at work. Physically things have been trying for him and then you add the stress of tight deadlines and lack of staff and well the grumpyness is hard to hide.. but I gently broch the subject that even if he is trying to go for the ZZTOP beard the hair could be cut... a quick NO shut me down leaving me with no alternative then to say that I guess we could live through the growing out phase.. until it was long enough for a ponytail. Again it was a quick NO... so no hair cut and no pony tail... is this a midlife crisis in the making? No panic here.. Amanda will be home tomorrow.. she has a way with making men get hair cuts... she has the tools to shame even the hardest into conforming....


And for those of you who are wondering what exactly goes through the mind of a bride to be.. just take a look at Amandas new blog...ABSENT NEARLYWED it might give you some insight on exactly what she is doing at college with all her free time... Its amazing what alittle love and alittle bling will do to do intelligent level headed girl!! But you know what? its alot more fun than I ever imagined.

i did check her site out and it is pretty fabulous. understand what she is going thru, you are going thru and mike is going thru. i think the work sux is going around. although as i write this i am listening to the ocean from my hotel room, no wait, hotel suite. the meetings may sux but working in the hotel room surely doesn't!
