hair.

So, again, I'm failing on Tell it Like it is Tuesday for the 3rd week in row. The blog series I was pimpin' as new and fresh and hip has become a one part series. I actually have another one written but today doesn't seem the right day to share it. Because it's about sex. And let's just all admit you have to have the right lead in to that.

I have something much more profound to discuss today-- hair.

So let me set the scene. I was in the truck this morning bringing Josiah to school and I had something itching my arm. I looked down and I had a piece of hair on my arm. So I picked it off with two fingers and just flung it off me onto the floor of the truck.

But then I started wondering. Wouldn't it be totally gross if hair was not biodegradable? Think about it. Hair is growing all the time. We get it cut and we lose about 50-100 hairs a day, everyday. What if hair didn't breakdown? I think by this point the whole world would be a giant tangle of hair. And dude, that would be NASTY. Hair would cover all the lawns and then when it would rain it would be all hairball-y. Think about how nasty it is to find a hairball in your shower. Imagine that times like a ZILLION.

And the oceans. Ug. I hate just the littlest bit of seaweed. I about can't take it. Can you imagine swimming in an ocean and coming out covered with long globs of other people's hair all tangled in your limbs? Seriously, I feel like I am going to puke now.

So yeah, today I am thankful that (even though I can't seem to put my finger on God right now and all that means,) God saw fit to make hair biodegradable.

;) Happy Tuesday.

And hey, PS-- tomorrow (if we make it that far) is our TWO YEAR anniversary of living in Haiti! Woot woot.
