Forgot to mention some good stuff about hair cuts

So...  I got my hair cut friday...  while I wasn't happy about some stuff... I was very happy about a few other things...

first... you must know that ever since I moved here, I have been looking for a good place to get a haircut that doesn't charge a fortune and does a good job.

I think I may have found the place.  I found a barbers shop not too far from my place that is very southern in style.  :)  Kinda redneck interior...  with hunting stuff/decor around the place.  :)  There were a couple of guys in there that looked like they've been at it for a while and not some newbie just out of school.  (no offense) 

So... after got past the 20 questions of "how do you want it?", he went at it.  He didn't try to strike up conversation, but conversed when I did...  and stopped when I did.  Which I greatly appreciate, 'cause I normally don't like talking when there's blades and such around my head.  Also... when it came time for the 2nd baptism, (i.e., they spray water on your head) he didn't drench me like most others do.  He only sprayed what he needed.  When he finished, he took warm shaving cream and shaved the back of my neck...  something I have not seen in your typical haircut here in Atlanta... 

Sadly, they didn't take credit card... so I had to pay cash.  :/  not a big deal though.

Why I don't like hair cuts

So… I figured out why I don't like haircuts.

 

1.  It cost money.  Not a big deal, but why should something so simple cost $13 or more?

2.  When they get those electric clippers in certain spots along my neck and ears, it causes my spine to totally freak out.

3.  The barbers also ask questions.  I don't know what I want.  I don't know how I do my hair.  I'm a guy.  I just comb the dumb stuff.

4.  There's almost always a line of people.  You have to wait.  I'm a spoiled american brat that wants everything now.  haha.

5.  Time.  It always takes 30 mins or more.  There's no such thing as a 5 minute haircut.  (Not that I want them to hurry up and mess my head up…)

 

Ok.  So… some of those really aren't a big deal.  But the first 2 are the ones that really bother me.  haha….  there's my thoughts of the day.

Life this past week or so...

We spent last week setting up and running tech for a battle of the bands concert in he Hanger at Perimeter Church. We were very excited to be part of this as we rarely get to exercise our creativity. Matt and Chris did lighting, Wade did audio, Patrick and I did video. Needless to say... it was awesome! Here is a link to some of the video... Pics will be up soon too...
