This afternoon, I got a free haircut from a salon. I know what you're thinking: Why would your average Joe get his haircut at a salon? Well you obviously didn't read the first part of my statement, where I said it was a FREE haircut. The only problem was, the lady wasn't allowed to use a clipper setting on the back. She had to use a comb and clippers all the way around my head. And then to top it off, she refused the cut the hair on top of my head to the shortness I wanted because she said it wouldn't lay flat since it's so straight. This is the point where I chime in and say: No problem, they cut it too short every time at Great Clips--I'm used to it. But she wouldn't go for it, and instead decided to just give me a trim all the way around, meaning that I'll have to get another cut in 2 weeks.
The point I'm trying to get across here: Even though I got a "free" haircut, I actually didn't get anything for free because I had to tip her...and I'll probably have to pay to get another haircut in less than a month (but we're all crossing our fingers that Ms. SR can set me up with a free one). And according to N (if you're reading this and you don't know who N is, I'll be shocked, and you should let me who you are and why you're reading this blog), "You can't eat your cake and have it too."
