College Visit

My wife and I decided to spend a weekend with his fiance. We drove up to Fargo after work and checked into the hotel. I had asked her if she wanted to stay with us or go back to the dorm each night. She jumped at the chance to stay in the hotel.

We had a great time. Shopping, going out to eat. She even stopped at the salon in the mall to have her hair trimmed.

Saturday evening we were sitting in the hotel watching the news. Iraq dominated the top of the half hour. His girl was sprawled out on her bed watching with us. She reached up and wiped a tear from her face.

I asked her what was wrong. She said that she was upset about her hair cut - it hadn't turned out like she had wanted it to.

I'm not too sure... But my thought is, it wasn't the hair cut that had her upset.
