goodbye dreads

last night i had the sudden realization that i no longer wanted these big silly dreads on my head. i pulled out all my beads, and prepared for freedom! after our easter egg hunt this morning erin (my housemate) sat me down in the sunny lawn and chopped each one off. it took about an hour in the shower to tease and pick out the dready ends, but i finally finished and now i am a new short-haired lady. i feel like my head is floating because it's so light without long locks. here are some fun pictures.
