It was 11:30 pm on a Sunday night and I had a really important meeting with a client from work the very next morning. I usually don’t have to dress up very nicely for work-I’m in advertising and I live in Austin. I had to dress nice for the client meeting though, so I was making sure that my button-up shirt and my khakis were ironed and ready before I went to bed. I spent the weekend just relaxing at home and not doing much else. I never had to leave the house, so I never really combed my hair all weekend. I had forgotten that I needed some hairspray and hair gel because I did not have any at all. I normally would not care, but I have pretty thick hair and it was starting to get long. When my hair gets long, it starts to get very curly and I look like I have an afro. My hair would have been great in the 70s at a rock concert, but it was the year 2002 and I was not going to a rock concert.
