Last weekend was homecoming for Anderson HS, and my wife and her friend had over a ton of girls to do their hair. It’s been a tradition that has steadily grown, which is cool. The girls get to meet new students and the students get their hair done for free. The thing is, they aren’t very good at it, but it’s still a good time – for them anyway.

I usually try to get out of there because it’s crazy. There are curling irons plugged into every outlet of our apartment. Hairspray is everywhere, so you can’t breathe. Every kind of makeup is there like Alexandra Demarkoff and this. It’s generally not a good place to be for your a guy.

For a while, I locked myself in my den, turned up some music and caught up on my finances. Paid some bills and got us up to date on Quicken. I also got to do some shopping online for aquarium air pumps. So, I made pretty good use of my time for my apartment being completely taken over on a Saturday.

I’m sure the tradition will continue, and in a few months, I’ll be scattered on Prom day.
