Huh?

The other day I went for what has become my annual haircut.  My hair is long.  According to the chart on the wall, it's extra long.  A request that 3-4 inches be taken off  was stealthily denied; 3/4 of an inch was apparently enough for her tastes.  Similarly, I specifically said, "Please do not straighten my hair.  Yes, I like that look, but it takes too long and I don't have the time."  Too bad for me.  My hair appeared longer when I left.  It's magical!

Friday afternoon I purchased airline tickets for an upcoming trip to Chicago.  No big deal, it was kind of a breeze.  Room reservations were... not so breezy.  The evil gnome over at Travelocity apparently has a policy regarding Visa debit purchases that not only verifies you've got the money in your account before making the actual charge... they leave the verification on your card for 24-72 business hours after the charge has gone through.  Know what it costs to stay in downtown Chicago for an extended weekend?  How about doubling that?


How about putting some gas in my tank?

A haircut and a trip too? This would double the excitement in my life right now.

P.S. How about Clabbent? I think it's got a ring to it!

Thank you for visiting my blog. I really appreciate your comment. And thank you for the Travelocity warning. YIKES! Holding your money hostage for that long should be a crime.

No haircut pictures? Bummer.
