Well, my hair has been styled and profiled(shout out to joanna,nice job, best stylist in the city) and it was pouring rain while i was getting all fixed up. I will pause here to say that "crazy bitch" from my last blog entry has her hair all fixed up with sexy dark curls and was sporting the lisa loeb glasses.........she was looking extra extra hot, and although i have never spoke to her, she seems like a really nice person. Then again, everyone down there at the salon is really nice, but damn she was smoking tonight...............love a chance to curl those toes........
anyway walking out it was pouring rain, real wrath of god type stuff and it got me thinking about the song Mandolin Ran by Bruce Hornsby. In this song the narrator is listening to a bluegrass band and it takes him back to a time in his youth when he was in a relationship with a girl. Basically Hornsby paints a picture of a band playing in a tent by a lake i.e. very traditional folk america and couples it with pain we all feel about that first love which got away. I think that the nostalgic image of old America - bluegrass, steamboat - ties in brilliantly with nostalgia for young romance.
I was very young when this song came out but it lodged in my subconsciousness. When i heard it again for the first time in my early 20's i actually cried, it triggered something in me. Cheers Bruce, one of the best musicians of our time.

Haircuts and Hair Stylists
Was sitting at work today thinking about blogging and what group or song I was going to throw on here tonight, when it dawned on me that Friday right after work, I have to get my hair cut and styled. I go to a shop called "ENVY" where my stylist, the ever lovely Joanna will style my hair into a vision of perfection. Envy is a salon that when I started going(followed Joanna from another place, and had followed her from that place from even another one)and it is all hot female hairstylist(ok well they have recently hired a dude, but I try to block that out). And by hot I mean they are really smoking and of course there is one that stands out from the rest, at least to me. I think she does because.......one.......she is really attractive........and two..........Joanna keeps telling me what a fucking crazy girl she is............and for some reason, to me, the phrase "fucking crazy girl", just makes her all the hotter. I guess it is that added element of danger, that unknown 'X Factor", where you have the hottest, most intense sex of your life with her, an then an hour later there is a chance that she is throwing a bucket of gasoline on you and tossing a lit match.
I think that what is really happening is that everyone at some point in their life has to date that one person who seems great at first, but turns out to be a completely nutjob, a fucking "bunny boiler"(if you know the reference), and I have not met my "bunny boiler" yet............so since i have been trying to date around a bit now, I am assuming the first person i do try to be serious with, will be the 'bunny boiler".............of course if the chick from Envy gets available.................I think I could change her.........yep, I bet I could......she just needs a nice guy..........a guy who will treat her with respect, compassion and love.....................yea that is what she needs...............(I am going to break the fourth wall here for a min and just say that, the last few lines I know is what a lot of people say, about someone who has a problem...in this case the problem is "crazy bitch" and they waste months/years in a relationship thinking they wil change and never do)............but still, I bet i could rock her world BIGTIME........at least until I catch the smell of gasoline:-)
anyway I seem to have strayed a tad off the original intent, that was to say that when I remembered the hair appointment, it made be think if the rock group "pavement" and the song/video below
Pavement was an American indie rock band in the 1990s. Although they experienced only moderate commercial success, they achieved a significant cult following[1] and were one of the more popular and influential lo-fi rock bands of the 1990s. The video below is for a song of thiers from 1994 called "Cut Your Hair"
Enjoy
