Happier Nappier

I may have made a mistake. 

This morning as I was waiting on my curling irons to heat up, I realized my straight, permed hair isn't doing it for me like I thought it would. All those months of whining over the growing-out process, only to perm it and realize that I was happier nappier.

What am I going to do now? I can't start from scratch. That just takes too long. Should I just try to let it revert back to natural from its current length? Will I be able to manage it in the summer heat? Should I try braids again? And where the hell were my friends when I decided to put perm back in my hair?! I blame them.

I gotta figure this thing out before I go for my next application of sodium hydroxide to the scalp. In the meantime, here's to remembering nappier days.
