The long version:

The long version is currently too long and complicated, so let me sum up:

I grew up in South Dakota with hair that grew past my waist, thinking that I wanted to grow up to become:

  • Crystal Gayle, a notably long-haired Country Western singer, famous for “Don’t It Make My Brown Eyes Blue.” (Please note: the singer has startling blue eyes.)
  • A nun.
  • The mother of twelve.

Which just goes to show that things never turn out the way you expect.
