I'm dating GI Jane

Hanna has decided, in a flurry of impulsive thought, to bookend her college career. The same week of her freshman year at PLNU she shaved all of the hair off of her head. Last night, she did the same. I'll let her comment on here if more explanation is needed, but basically one of our friends, Marta, was raising money for the Dalit people of India and vowed to shave her head if she raised $1,000. Then Rev. Bob Smith (world-renowned for being the Silver Fox) matched that by promising to shave his head if she reached $1,500 - they reached $1,800. Last night during the shaving of both Marta and Bob's heads, Hanna decided she had become too attached to her beautiful head of hair and stood up to pledge a shorn head at the donation of $2,000. Within 10 seconds they had raised $2,100. I was unaware of all this happening until Hanna showed up last night with a "big surprise" to work on her homework. What can I say? She's impulsive. And if I had a problem with her being zany and willing to do what she can to prove a point or make a stand, I wouldn't be dating GI Jane.

Oh, and believe me - the sarcastic comments have just barely begun!

"Maybe it was your hair that let you know I'm funny."

"I used to know a girl with hair that said that exact same thing!"
