My Sister´s Hair and Going Shopping Last Year

-
I´ve always been jealous of my sister because of her hair. She´s got a strong, thick and smooth hair which lies on her shoulders as a cascade of soft waves. Well, I see them this way.
When we were small kids, my sister was a curly golden-hair angel, while I had dark straight hair. As we were growing up, our hair was changing - mine has become a bit lighter and curly, my sister´s has become straight and light brown. Absolutely opposite.
Of course our hair had weird periods of time. For example, when my sister was about twelve, she was wearing a fringe, a very thick and eyes-covering fringe for almost a year. Or, I never went out without a ponytail. For almost two years. I was fifteen - weird time.
But since then we´ve matured, as well as our hair. And I envy my sister her strong hair. I need my hair-endings cut every three months or they would be damaged. I think she even doesn´t know what the damaged hair-ending is. Perhaps she´s put a spell on her hair or something:-)

For about two last years she has been wearing a kind of chignon. I´ve never seen her with unbound hair for about a year. I understand that it is much easier not to have her hair fluttering around while she chases Smallone.




We agreed on going shopping together last year (sounds interesting, doesn´t it:-)). It was on December 30. And when we met I stayed pole-axed seeing her hair. Especially its length. Ok, pole-axed is a strong word, but it was like "Hey, where I have been last year? I think your hair is shoulder-length.".


My sister: "My hair is so long now. I need a haircut. Some distinct and conspicuous one."
Me: "What about very short hair? 5 centimetres?"
My sister: (laughing) "Are you insane?"
Me: "That would be definitely conspicuous, you know. And I think it would suit you."
My sister: (with a huge smile) "Oh yeah, I know I would be a beauty even hairless."
Me: (laughing) "I bet you would!"

While wandering up and down the town we met one friend of mine by chance. She´s my friend from school and we hadn´t seen each other for ages, so the encounter was a delight. She was accompanied by her husband and their sweet baby boy who couldn´t be almost seen in his pram.


Also Smallone was bundled up in warm clothes. It was really freezing so she needed to be, but I was a bit sorry for her, because she almost wasn´t able to move. Too many layers of clothes for such a small pram:-)

But still it was a very nice afternoon wandering up and down the town. Freezing, with two gloves on, but nice.

Peti,
my jsme se šly jen tak projít. Teda cíl byl ten, aby jsme prcka udyndaly v kočárku a ona usnula. Stejně to nakonec dopadlo tak, že my se ségrou jsme mrzly a malá si vesele užívala jízdu v kočárku. A usnula až doma..
