So, I had a wild hair…literally. 

More than "A" wild hair, apparently around 100,000 wild hairs.

(although, honestly, I liked the "look" much better with a do-rag).

Last night was "THE" appointed night for liberating my chained-and-woven locks; what took Rosie about three hours to DO, took me–with the help of two "assistants"–one hour to UN DO.
