Got Lice?

This past week Becca and I were up in Washington for Christmas. On Christmas Eve there was a family get together at Becca's parents house and among those in attendance was my little niece Emily who is almost 8 years old and can also be VERY outspoken and opinionated. Towards the end of the night Emily was sitting on my lap when she began to feel around in my hair like a mother monkey does to her little monklings (if thats not a word than it is now). She does this for a couple of minutes than diagnosis me with parasite infestation by exclaiming "you have lice". She was so emphatic about this that I almost began to believe her. She continued by diagnosing pretty much everybody at the party except for Grandpa because she said "he doesn't have enough hair." We finally got her to adjust her diagnosis just a little bit by saying that we had either a little case of dandruff or leftover hair product particles, but either way she told us "it was the beginning stages of lice" and that we needed "to be sure to shower." Whether Emily is right or not I have definitely been scrubbing my hair a little harder lately while showering.
