Strange Happenings

A woman walked into the salon Tuesday afternoon around 4:30 pm as I was finishing my last client. She looked very familiar to me and as we made eye contact, I said 'I know you'. She said 'I know you too'. We even recognized each other's names. I could tell from her black brief case and attire that she was a sales rep. I asked her to have a seat while I finished styling my clients' hair. I was racking my brain where I knew her from, but just couldn't put my finger on it.
She started showing me these shears that are ergonomically designed to help prevent carpal tunnel and tendonitis. As she demonstrated the shears and gave me her speil, we both kept mentioning various places or events that we could have known each other from. To make a long story short, neither one of us could remember. Is that weird or what? I know her from somewhere and it has been driving me crazy all week. I liked the shears, they came with a free pair of thinning shears, the price was right, so I bought them. Well, later that evening I began to wonder if she said all that just to build a rapport with me so I would make a purchase. Am I being overly suspicious ? Who knows? I need to call her because the shears aren't cutting as well I would like. Do you think I've been ripped off?

It's cold here in the Lone Star State! Winter has finally arrived. I can still wear my boots and leather jacket. I may even get to wear my hats (not western) this week. I have a black felt that looks more like a Zorro hat and a brown felt trimmed with a cheetah print band. The rodeo is coming up soon and it's always cold as heck during the chili cook-off. I'm not a 'kicker', but just about everyone 'goes Texan' during rodeo time. It's fun to drag out the western duds.

The entire city is consumed with The Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo. Lots of money being spent and partying going on!


Yee Haw, Ya'll!
