Not My Problem

I bet you’ve never had your hair stylist put two blowdryers on cool, shooting the air up your sleeves.

Yes, this happened to me yesterday. Jealous?

I biked to the other side of town in humid 80/90 degree weather and couldn’t stop sweating. It was a problem. I actually left sweat spots on the chair. I really cannot deal with Austin summers (Avg 100 degrees) Problems. Help.

Also, I don’t know about you, but I always feel so awkward when people cut my hair. I don’t really want to chat the whole time. I don’t like when they massage my head/neck, so I shouted “Ewww” when he started massaging my neck. At one point I just wanted to shave my head today. I always find it weird when they give me a mirror to look at the back of my head because I don’t really care. I’m a hair stylist’s dream. I still don’t trust male hair cutters. I’m that girl who cries after every haircut because I don’t like it at first. Problems. I probably should not have shared all of this with the internet.

Sometimes I feel so old. The other day, my friend was talking about wireless digital cameras. I thought she was joking. Since when can digital cameras connect to the internet? I thought only phones could do that. Problems. My camera has 5x zoom and 10 megapixels, which I thought was pretty good, but apparently it’s not, but I hear that the human eye can really only see up to a certain amount of mpx. Also, how do you reply to your replies on tumblr? I feel so old and clueless. Problems.

What would you bring your host family as a gift? I’m leaving to study abroad this Sunday and could not think of anything. Of course when I told my parents, they immediately told me that they would send me Frango Mints. While I enjoy Frangos, I feel like my parents and Chicago people immediately think of bringing Frango Mints when they visit people out of town. When my parents visited me in Texas, they brought a bag of Frango Mints to give to my bosses and professors (Weird. Bribery, perhaps? They never wanted to meet my undergrad professors, not that I even knew who they were). When they visit my mom’s family in Hawaii, they always bring a bunch of Frango Mints and backups just in case. I currently have a few boxes of Frangos in my refrigerator. I also asked my friend what I should bring my host family and she said Frango Mints. What is it with Chicago people and Frango Mints??? There has to be something else that you can give as a gift to people. Plus, aren’t Frango’s available nationwide now? They’re sold on the Macy’s website…Not my problem. If you can think of any other gift to give, I eagerly await your suggestions. ?

Fuck. I was just sitting in the den or what have you and a huge roach with wings just ran around in here. The ones who flap their wings are the ones you have to watch out for because it’s so hard to catch them. Thus, I just left my front door wide open and I think/pray that I saw him run out. I’m not usually too scared of cockroaches, but this one gave me the creeps. Problems. I really want to move somewhere that doesn’t have roaches.

I killed two of these yesterday. It was traumatizing. One was in the kitchen and the other was in my room crawling on my jeans on the floor. Problems. How do you keep roaches out of your house?? This is common in Texas and warm places apparently. So gross. ?

What’s your take on wingtips for women? I had to buy good walking shoes for my trip abroad and the salesman was really trying to push these Cole Haan shoes. He forgot to tell me that they are almost $200 (WTF. They have a Nike running shoe sole, so it’s extremely comfortable). The guy said that he likes them on women. I didn’t buy them. NMP. I feel like there is a lack of nice looking walking shoes and if you get wingtips, you need the right outfit to match. I feel so superficial now for saying that. Also, I’m not sure if the Nordstrom shoe salesmen were attractive or douchey. They were all young, taller than me (Points for that), and wore tailored clothing plus vests. Any thoughts are welcome.
