If they can tame it maybe I can sleep carefully and have decent hair Saturday morning.
I’m absolutely dreading meeting all the relatives. I’m the black sheep so people will be eyeing me. An aunt called yesterday and wanted to know if the funeral was still happening. She didn’t know who I was. Why did she call mum’s number? People drain me. I don’t want to be on exhibit.

When my best friend arrived at my mom's funeral she hugged me and whispered in my ear, "Remember: there's 'fun' in funeral for a reason." She's a natural comedian and her comment lightened the misery of the funeral 
If you have a silk or bamboo pillowcase sleeping on that really does help keep the hair neat. Gosh, when I was a little girl my mom and sisters slept with their hairdo's wrapped in some kind of pink sort-of silky-felty stuff, they'd wrap it around their hair. There are times when I sure wish I had that. No idea what it was, though, and it's probably not manufactured anymore. Probably made with asbestos or God knows what.
Aw, the black sheep is secretly everyone's favorite, the one everyone wishes they could be. They just don't have the courage. You'll do just fine.
