My Old Lady Hair...

I have a serious case of old lady hair going on right now...a few months ago I cut my hair short...way short...it was a little spiky, a little messy, and I personally think terribly cute. I have recently decided to now grow my hair out. The story behind that decision is $500. Think I am lying? Nope...my mother told me she would pay me $500 to grow my hair out. I was at first a little offended - was my hair so bad someone would pay me to grow it out??? But then I thought - hey for five hundred bucks?? Why not grow it out?? So it has been over 3 months since my last trim - I was looking like a had a bit of a mullet going on, so I went today to get a trim...I came out looking like an old lady who just went to the local beauty school and had my hair set - the only thing missing is the grayish blue hair and wrinkles. I am all curled and set...geez where's my walker? I feel like playing bingo...
