give me a double honey

"If you came to make trou-ble, give me a double, honey, I think its good."
--From a song I overheard at the Starbucks on Gaston Avenue a couple of nights ago. I don't know who sings it. She had a mellow, jazzy voice. It is my new credo. GIVE ME A DOUBLE, HONEY.
I am at my parents' house blogging. I went to Toastmasters this morning and I am tired.
I went to Fantastic Sam's Monday to get my hair cut. (Yes, NDH goes to Fantastic Sam's. Do you think I can afford an expensive hair cut?????????) My stylist matter-of-factly informed me that he likes to drink water but it makes him go to the bathroom all day.
I like F.S. because it reminds me of when I was little and used to go there to get my hair cut. I got my hair cut up to my shoulders. At the end, my stylist asked me if I wanted shine spray and I said yes. This was a new thing for me --I don't think I've ever used shine spray. I enjoyed the decor, such as the signs that said things like, That Hair of Yours Is No Wallflower. The sign is right, That Hair of Mine is No Wallflower.
The other day (July 4th) I was going for a walk near my apt. and I accidentally got caught staring at this woman's house. It was a pretty big blue house, really old and on a street near my street. It was funny that she pulled up and I was like gaping at her house. I quickly walked away.
You all must buy a Glade clean linen candle. I got it at Walgreen's but I'm sure you can also find it at Target (Tar-jay) or wherever. It smells great, like freshly washed clothes. I plan to light it while I am writing my short stories so I can breathe in the clean linen.
Gotta go,
