feeling like a five year old

Last night Ken, Geoff and I went to one of those yogurt stores where they give you a bucket and you fill it up and then they charge you $9.00 and you go, "Wow!" and also "Whoops! Did I really plan to spend that much money on yogurt this evening?"

But that's NOT the point. The point is that while we were sitting at a table together, I noticed Ken and Geoff were staring HARD at me and finally Ken went, "Did you cut your own bangs?"

Which, of course, I had. But really it's probably not a good sign when your husband asks you that question in the first place, and in the second place your son bursts out laughing.

Can't even begin to express my delight!

I'm here to tell you that husbands' notice of bangs AT ALL is an enormous compliment, and you should hereby Go With It.

LOL, my husband asks me this all the time and he's always right. They say at Lunatic Fringe (where I've been getting my hair done lately) that it doesn't cost anything to get your 'fringe' AKA bangs trimmed. But honestly, I just can't in my right mind think that I'd go in and not pay anything to have them cut. I mean do I at least tip? And how much?

Plus I'd have to find someone to watch my little one while I go in and have fringe trimmed. I mean really, I'll probably just stick with the hacked off approach I've been taking. Maybe I'll eventually get good at it.

The ultimate payback was the day my sweetheart decided to buzz his own head. Mwaahhh-hah-hah!

I read this to Brendan and his parents, as they were over this weekend. We had a good laugh since Brendan in his childhood went behind the couch and "snipped" his own bangs. When he came out his mom noticed the triangular chunk missing. He couldn't figure out how his mom knew it was him. ha ha

I'm glad Ken notices your details. And how cute this one must've been.
