A haircut!

Actually, more than one, for all you smart-asses out there.

The bug got her first haircut "at a real store" last weekend.  There's a family-run business near our house where the parents of two autistic sons decided that young children need their own space to get haircuts and learn how not to be scared of scissors.  They charge about the same as Cost Cutters but have fun chairs and TV's to distract the kids, and seem to love working with children instead of wishing they were doing something fancy on an adult head.  The bug had a fabulous time, and even let them blow-dry her hair:

This, from the girl who literally slams the door every morning when I blow dry my hair because it is Too Loud and Scary, Mama, That Thing By Your Head, Shut It Off!  The hypnotic power of Spongebob is duly noted.
