Note to Self

When the person who has known you longer and, arguably, better than anyone else on the planet, who has watched, wincing, as you made countless bad decisions with her lips sealed, who cheered you on when you dyed your hair pink in high school, who oohed and aahed over your first tattoo, who could count on one hand the times that she has given you advice, the person with whom you share a remarkable number of physical traits; when that person, your mother, tells you not to cut bangs, you should listen to her.

  2. How about a sideswipe with a Bobby pin? Not long enough yet?

  3. I thought the bangs were a resounding success?
    No?

  4. It's not that the bangs look bad. They look alright. It's that they are a giant ass ache. They are cut to be side-swept which means they are kind of long, and without spending 20 minutes every morning styling them and spraying the fuck out of them, they stick straight down and tickle the tip of my nose. And even if I do find the time to style them in the morning, by afternoon they are creeping back to my nose like a pervert at a gymnastics meet.
