I mean to post this before the holiday, but it slipped my mind. This is a short story called "Gift of the Magi," which no doubt some of you have read before:
http://www.auburn.edu/~vestmon/Gift_of_the_Magi.html - http://www.auburn.edu/~vestmon/Gift_of_the_Magi.html
It's appropriate here because it's about a young woman whose pride and joy is her beautiful long hair. The story is beautiful and bittersweet. I love it.
Cheers!

Hi Ally!
I remember first reading the story when I was in the 9th grade. I agree, it's very touching.
HNY!

Yeah, I read it too. Definitely bittersweet and touching.

Monica: Isn't there any way that you could look at this as flattering? I mean, she's doing this to be more like you.
Rachel: Well, then, couldn't she have just copied my haircut?
