Shorn

I was sick of my hair and went to get a haircut today.

Juan: "Okay, what kind of haircut do you want?"

Arielle: "Well, Juan, I don't really know, a change from what I have now, easy-to-manage, cute. What do you think would look good?"

Juan: "Oh Arielle, I think anything would look good with your beautiful face."

Arielle: [in my head]: "Juan, I'm not paying for compliments or to be hit on, I just want a straight answer and then a haircut."
[real]: "Thanks. Please tell me what you're going to do."

Juan: "I'm going to give you my phone number."

Arielle: "Okay, well I think maybe something shorter would be nice, and I don't want to have to use any product to style it."

So, here we are.

That sounds like the beginning of a novel that a middle-aged housewife reads while she's cooking for her mid-level manager husband who's at work and for her kids at soccer practice. The next line should be something like "the more I resisted, the more I realized my efforts were futile."
