A Bittersweet Day Off

So I was up till bout 5 this morning and it was cool cus I didn't work till 1. Well thats still only 5 hours sleep but it's cool. So I wake up at 10 and get up, get some cereal, eat breakfast, watch a lil tv and then get in the shower (rockin' out to Kelly Clarkson! Heck yes!), get out, throw on clothes, blow dry my hair, put on my makeup and begin to straighten my hair. If you know me at all, or see me on a regular basis, you will know that the hair straightener and I have not bonded in the way of other girls and their hair machines. My hair is so thick (albeit short) that it takes FOREVER! So usually I allow my natural curls to take over and evolve into frizz. Not the best but it's convienent lol. I LOVE the way my hair looks straight and it's a mega confidence booster. So since God decided to reinform me of my gender today, I thought "Well I'm working today and it's gonna be a particularly long shift and I could use the hair to balance the out of whack emotional junk so...what the heck! :)" Well, I step away for a second, and return to a voice mail from my store. "Hi, this is ____ , we're cancelling your shift today, see you next time. Enjoy your day off!" Very polite and sweet. But at this moment two things are running through my mind. 1: YAY!!! no work!!! and 2: CRAP! that's 6 HOURS OF PAY LOST! so anyway I'm enjoying not working today but I could've used the $$. So, I ended up straightening my hair anyway and I'm just relaxing and enjoying it all by myself lol OOH! and I'm going swing dancing tonight!!! YAY!
