To The Lady That Cut My Hair Today

When I agreed to let you cut my hair today I was not looking for somebody to have a nice conversation with. I was looking for a hair cut. I do not care what you think would be a great April Fools joke, its December and your idea was pretty stupid, you should consider keeping that to yourself and hope that moment of foolishness does not leak out into real life.

I also will not tell you how the book is when I am finished with it. Do you think my first thought when I finish the book is to run to the local salon and tell you “yes, that book I read was good”? By then I will have forgotten you, and although I know that I am a quite remarkable person, I think one month is sufficient time to forget me. We are forced to share fifteen minutes together because I am unable to do the service which you supply, don’t make it worse by forcing me to pretend that I care about anything that you say.
