I have finally gotten a haircut...and a good one at that.  I think it's been at least 9 months since my last cut and that one really wasn't very good.  I've been to three salons since I moved here (we're in the middle of year 2) and couldn't find anyone that fit.  I gave up even thinking about it halfway through last semester.  I don't think I have particularly difficult hair nor do I like complicated cuts.  Actually my hair is straighter-than-straight, which I guess can be difficult.  
I even went with highlights...it's been almost 3 years since my hair had color.
It's difficult to find a new hair person.  I'm incredibly long-term monogamous in every relationship, even hair dressers, so I've been careful not to bond until I liked the results.  And when you spend several hours in a chair I think you should like the person with their fingers in your hair.  I knew I liked this woman--we'll call her Miss C--when I realized I was actually initiating conversation.  It usually takes a few "first dates" before I'm taking an active role in the discussion.
So the year is off to a good start.  What I haven't managed to do yet is to find my way into the office.   That will probably have to happen tomorrow.
