Getting ready for church this morning I noticed that my hair is doing it’s thing again. It’s too long, right now. I haven’t had it cut since the last week of June, though I’ve been meaning to find the time for the last six weeks. But when it gets long like this it starts thinking that it can gang up on me. Suddenly, my hair is calling the shots.

So this morning, knowing that I was running a little late, my hair decided to give me a nice mixture of curls and sections of absolute straightness. And then, just for emphasis, just to drive home its total mastery, it threw in one long ringlet right down the left side of my face. Nothing makes the rest of your hair look unkempt quite like one shining, orderly ringlet.
