The hair is all gone - but behold the wig :-)

My friends James and Sherry DiBari kindly agreed to shave my stubbled head last Tuesday and it was great. After a good report on my bloodwork from the lab, I headed over (ha ha get it, headed) to their house and I entrusted my noggin to them. It felt so good to have all of the sparse stubble just gone. It also made it easier to wear my new wig. I just love it! I found it at this great place in Palm Desert called the Wig-wam. My friend Chris Wong went with me to pick it up and we had so much fun just trying on different colors and types. It's amazing how real they look. It really was a boost to have it. I don't mind wearing scarves and stuff, but the wig just brought out a whole other element. It's kind of a bob, but it's slightly asymmetrical and fuller on one side. It has bangs and it is blonder than I was before. As Paul Talley said, it looks rock star...Right afterward the wig procurement, I went to have lunch with a friend and it was a fun surprise. It was really fun to wear it to Church for worship that Saturday night, and even funner to just take it off and show people my bald head. I also got this really cool rasta hat that has built-in dredlocks that I got from the hat store at the River. That place has great hats. There are more there I want to get as well, but I love wearing the dredlock one becuase it puzzles people. somehow a white girl with freckles just totally belies the dredlock look. Fun!
So, the wig is great. I get a los of complements on it, even from people that don't know that it's actually a wig. Maybe when I do get some hair back I'll grow it out like the wig..Who knows.
After worship that Saturday the 17th the McIntyres invited me to dinner and we went to cheesecake factory and had a great time together. It was so neat to get to know them, and what a great occasion to become friends. That just amazes me. We talked about Jesus and prayed together-and our server was evena Jewish beleiver which was really fun. The way I picked up on it was that she was actually using some yiddish words which you don't hear very often out here. Anyway, it was a great time lauging talking and praying together :-)
