Hairy escapade

I got my hair done today. Hairdresser ace AJ did a great job, am very happy with it.

However, it was quite an interesting experience, as I got to meet one of the young apprentices.

Young apprentice: So yeah, why are you going overseas?

nerdgirl: For the experience, we've always wanted to go, blah, blah, blah....

YA: So, the UK. That's in America, isn't it?

Young apprentice knows that I am getting picked up by my husband, who she has not met. I have rung nerdboy, so she knows I am expecting him pretty soon. The door to the salon opens. A guy roughly around the age of 75-85 walks through the door. A nice looking old gent.

You could see it in slo-mo as young apprentice looks at the door and then looks wide eyed at me. You can see the cogs in her brain moving as she realises that I obviously have a thing for much older men. She then tries to act nonchalant.

I can't help myself.

ng: That's not my husband!

Fortunately we both then cracked up laughing.

Good grief AJ. How do you do it each day?
