please don't make me beg...

you would think i have all the time in the world, with as much time i've spent sitting here at the computer messing with my "hair", when i should be doing something more productive (emptying the dishwasher, laundry, fixing dinner, or cleaning up a million legos!) but next week is the big haircutting day! i'm starting to bite my nails i'm so nervous. okay, scratch that, i'm just going to eat another brownie. i don't know why it's such a big deal to get a haircut, but for me it's like buying a house or choosing your child's name. this is a big deal! i guess i will feel a little comfort knowing that my hair will be making someone else very happy. did you know it can cost as much as $1,800 to make a wig?! thanks to people like Locks of Love and Pantene, women and children, suffering from hair loss due to illness or cancer, are able to have a beautiful flowing mane again. so, as part of my fundraising (Team in Training)  i'm donating my hair to the cause.

when i say i've been sitting at the computer for hours, i'm not lying! i've been trying to figure out what i'm going to do with my hair once it's gone. i posted a while ago with a couple ideas, but i think i have it narrowed down to this one:

not the best picture, but even after hours of cyber styling, i couldn't get it to look like "me".  now for the part where i start to beg. i will admit fundraising for this marathon has proved to be a little more dificult than i had anticipated, but i have hope that things will work out in the end. i still have 2 more months to raise the remaining $2,000. i was hoping that by haircut day i would have raised a little more, but with only a week away, let's just say it's not the goal i was hoping for. dudes, this is a great cause and all the money donated is tax deductible. think about it, and think about my hair next week...bye bye long shiny locks...
