it's like ray-yay-yain on your wedding day

Something struck me today while I was getting my hair done. There I was, sitting in one of the higher-end salons in Louisville, having a complimentary hand massage by one woman and sipping my bottled water while another woman did my highlights. During all of this primping and pampering, I was reading Diary, who also wrote Fight Club, one of my favorite books and movies. The sheer hypocrisy and irony of doing both at the same time wasn't lost on me. But aren't we all at least just the tinest bit hypocritical? Is it in our nature to believe one way and act another? Are we just constantly fighting some inner battle between our belief systems versus societal systems? Or do we just pretend to have certain beliefs in order to make ourselves feel better about the things we do? Well I don't know the answer to those questions, but I can tell you this...my hair is way cute.
