Daughter has been growing her hair out for some time now, and today she finally got to get it cut.

All for Locks of Love.

It’s a bit shocking to see her go from long hair to rather short hair, but the stylist Wife goes to is very good and Daughter looks great. All is good.

So… now I get to take her to see The Hannah Montana Movie this afternoon. It’s good time with Daughter, but I just hope my ears don’t bleed. 😉

Update: I survived the movie. Truth be told, it’s not that bad. Not some great cinematic tour de force, but it was OK. Certainly there’s no need to see this movie unless there’s a Hannah Montana fan that needs her Hannah-fix. Plot was predictable and cookie cutter, but it served the purpose (i.e., making lots of money for Disney, including cross-promoting their latest teen-star du jour). No real character development, and honestly I was hoping for more laughs. I was annoyed at how some “new song” would be whipped out but somehow everyone else knew the song well enough to sing, harmonize, dance, play the instruments… but hey, gotta suspend reality, right? 

I will say, while at first I didn’t get the whole Hannah Montana thing, now that it’s infiltrated our household I have to admit it’s not that bad. I actually do enjoy watching the show (Jason Earles is a funny guy). If Daughter is going to be listening to music, Hannah/Miley music isn’t all that bad. Sure it’s got typical “teenage girl chasing boys” type of songs, but that is a fact of life and believe me there’s far worse ways of presenting such topics. Off the new movie, the song “The Climb” has a pretty good message to it (cliché but acceptable). There are some other songs of hers that I’ve also felt had a pretty decent message too, but don’t ask me to name them because I don’t know them.

But for me, the bottom line is spending time with Daughter. Now we just need to go to the gun range together. 😀
