Okay, so, I have curly hair. You might already know this. It’s more wavy, really, and I say that because "wavy" is a simple compromise. The truth is that my hair is about fourteen different textures. It is absolutely stick straight in spots, like at my nape and at my ears. But on top, where it is shorter, I get tight corkscrew curls. Now, I know that the length of the lock determines its curliness, due to weight, but no matter how short my various hairs are, always the same spots won’t curl up.

Any of you other curly-haired people have this problem? I guess it is not a problem, really, just frustrating for me. I try to check out other curly heads, but can’t get too close up without looking suspect. Most people seem to have the same size curls throughout.

Am I the only one who has multiple personality hair?

I had a dream that I inherited a bunch of Tupperware. None of the lids matched.

What the hell kind of weak-dick, bullshit dream is that?

My job would be awesome if it weren’t for the freakin’ freaks.
