Coffee and a Sandwich

It's the first day of school, kids, and I couldn't be more excited. This day every year is a mix of all my first days of school and all of them were wondrous because I led a charmed life as far as school went. (Although I'd not want to do it all over again.) Today is all goldy light and good-smelling leaves, dance pants and a calculus textbook, dorm rooms and wiglace, track shorts and marching band practice.

Who wants to go cruising on Saturday night? I'll meet you in the Burger King parking lot.

Wiglace?

Well, ventilation lace, reallly. It's what you use to make wigs. It's a little stretchy and not too scratchy and looks like baby netting. The whole process is like small-scale latch hook with human hair.

wasn't it a horrible wig construction accident that caused you to have short hair several years back?
