What is the color of laughter? I would guess it's the same color as happiness, because if laughter is expressing anything, I believe it would be happiness. But how anyone could be happy in this warmth and humidity, I just don't know. I'm thinking of moving to northern Alaska. As long as I am nowhere near Palin country. Fear leads me to my next topic (subject of discussion).
And that would be haircuts. Being somewhat vain (yes, it's true, I am a bit vain), I do have a slight fear of getting a bad haircut. These days, however, the cost is also a factor. For many years I had my haircut by the same person, and he was very good, and also very popular. When he finally started charging me thirty dollars (not including tip) I started going to someone who was closer to home and only charged fifteen dollars (again, not including tip). This saved me even more money because I only had to drive fifteen minutes instead of thirty minutes. Then, a friend cut my hair for free, and her house was only a two minute drive. Now, the moral here is that one (me) can become spoiled (and greedy). So when she didn't have time to cut my hair, I waited. And I waited...and waited. Until my hair was everywhere. When I looked in the mirror, I couldn't see my face behind all the hair. It was very dangerous when I was driving. Finally, another friend said he would cut my hair, and told me to come by the next day. That night I had a terrible dream of getting a really scary looking haircut. So I got scared, and the next day I went back to the woman who had been cutting hair for fifteen dollars. Afterwards I told my friend that I was attacked on the street by three women. Two of them held me down while the third one cut my my hair. He told me I'd been out in the sun too long, but if it was true, he would like to know where to go so the three women could find him. I did tell him that I thought he could of done a better job of cutting my hair. He didn't believe I meant it. So, his daughter, who is also a friend of mine, cooked me some scrambled eggs, and I went home. It's good to have friends, but it'd also good to not take advantage of them.
So, stay out of the heat, only get haircuts when you have to, laugh as much as possible, & stay out of trouble...
