Thanks??

My normal routine for styling my hair involves shampoo, conditioner, special product when damp, special brush for blow-drying, and more special products when dry. That's at a minimum. I did all of those things every morning last week, Monday through Friday, and received exactly zero compliments on my hair.

On Saturday, I got out of bed, went to the gym, then went to breakfast. A woman came up to me and said, "Are you a beautician? You have the most beautiful hair I've ever seen! I especially like the way you have it styled."

After thanking her and assuring her I'm no beautician, I wasn't sure whether to laugh or cry. I hadn't really thought of get-out-of-bed-and-go-to-the-gym as a style per se, but I guess I'll take the compliments whenever I can get them.
