Suspicious Hooded Person Lurking at School


OK.... I admit it..... sometimes when my hair is dry, I'll do a hot oil treatment and leave it on my hair.... NOT attractive, but it works.  So, with the change in temperatures and having to use the heat in the house, I've experienced severely dry hair, so I have a treatment on my hair and don't plan to wash it off until later today..... which leads me to my latest debacle...
Last night, my sister, Allena, used my computer to print off some lyrics to a precious contemporary Christian song that she needed.... of course, all of you that know Allena, can understand that she left without taking what she had printed off.....  HENCE, being the nice sister that I am, I waited for her at the back parking lot at school this morning to give her the printout.
BUT.... since my hair is in this special state, looks like I haven't washed my hair in months, I took Emma to school this morning with a hoodie on and hood pulled up.... Now you can only imagine what happened..... a suspicious hooded character in non-familiar car is parked in the back parking lot at the high school.....  
While I wait for my sister, who is about 15 minutes behind me, I think every male staff member available made a "pass" my way to see if they could tell who/what I was.... Panic is starting to set in... I don't want anyone to see me like this, so I'm trying to look nonchalant as I'm calling her on her cell phone telling her to hurry before they call the police!  She's laughing so hysterically that she's in danger of having a wreck, while I'm under surveillance!!  She had difficulty making her way to my car window (the hysterical laughter impeding her approach) while I'm trying to hurry before the Deputy arrives!  Well.... I made it out about 3 seconds ahead of the Deputy... and as I made my way past the watchful eyes of a group of school bus drivers, I saw his vehicle approaching in my rear-view....  during my escape, I was thinking of this quote and how true it is:
If you don't understand how a woman could both love her sister dearly and want to wring her neck at the same time, then you were probably an only child.
