Teenagers! What The Hell Is Wrong With Them?

Finally Half way through the week.  I thought I would join the fun with the girls over at Blue Monkey Butt and post a What The Hell Wednesday. Here is a conversation with my son.

What happened to that cute little boy that was so affectionate????? Yes I am talking about my 15 year old son. When he was younger he was just the cutest kid ever, he would look at me and say "Mom, your my beeeeesssst Friend right"? I of course with my heart melting would say yes I'm your Beeeeeesssst Friend!!!! We use to sit on the couch and watch TV  actually laugh together.

I signed him up for drivers ed a few weeks ago. This past Saturday he finished his last class and is now ready to take his permit test.

Me: Oh I made an appointment for you to take your permit test.

Andrew: (Cutting in before I am even finished) You did when?

Me: May 26th its the last day of school.

Andrew: THE LAST DAY OF SCHOOL!!!

Me: Yah sorry I tried every other DMV and all the appointments are after you come back from you dads, we have to go to Palm Springs. (For those of you who don't know its an hour from me)

Andrew: I really doubt that is the only appointment

Me: Excuse me if you keep up your attitude I will cancel it all together and you will just wait until August.

Andrew: WOW! MOM!!!!

I wanted to kill him at this point WHAT THE HELL! and had to just hang the phone up. I mean seriously how can he be so ungrateful? Later that night I explained to him the DMV nightmare, however he thinks I am just making up a story so I don't have to take him. WHAT THE HELL!!!!!

Jennifer: The people it’s a joy coming to work each day knowing the people I see each day are like family.

Me: What makes Attitudes Salon different than other Salons?

Jennifer: We do a lot of charity work. We have sponsored a cut-a-thon, giving free haircuts. All tips and donations we received were given to the Hurricane Katrina Relief. We donate hair to Locks of Love and collected toys for our military troops and their families.

We are also starting a program after the first of the year where we send our hair clippings to Matter of Trust which  is an organization that  use the hair clippings for the environment to soak up oil from spills.


So there you have it folks, as you can see Attitudes Salon, in my opinion, stands out among all the others. I am super excited for them knowing firsthand how hard the staff works to make sure their customers come first!!!!
