    I'd ask him to go on with the rest of your friends without you and you'll catch him up - tailgate the tailgate:happy: . Then you can show off your new hairdo.
    I agree with this, just drop him off with the crew leaving early and catch up with them when your done.

    Um, work out earlier?

    I wish my schedule was that free that all I had to worry about was a work out, a hair cut and a football game.

    But perhaps I'm just not a "typical" girly girl. I get my hair cut when it looks like a fe-mullet. That's about it.

    The workout in this case was not the problem. read the above posts.

    Workout before haircut...the haircut was the problem.

    Well, you did schedule it long before he brought up this whole game business. I say get your hair-cut, join him later. Think about the calories you'll save by not being at the tailgate as long! : )

    Gotta say, 9 times out of 10, I never agree with a wife rant, but I'm with you on this one. Not because it's hair vs. football or anything, but you had your thing scheduled way before and he knew about it. And even if he didn't, he still would have gotten to tail gait AND see all of the game. It's about equal consideration.

    Glad you guys got it worked out.

    Do your thing then meet him. Being married does not mean being joined at the hip

    I agree 100%!!

    2) Frequent trims do not actually promote faster hair growth

    Damn it!!!! What does?

    eat right. if your body has all the nutirents it needs, your hair will grow faster. besides that, it's genetics.

    Exactly. Your hair is dead. Trimming the ends is counterproductive. It grows from the roots.

    So whats the problem with going to the tail gate afterward? Wow some people.....

    I'm totally up for the tailgate and I love football... He just didn't want to wait until 2.

    What I meant, Was What does it matter if you go afterward, Go get your hair cut, then meet up afterward. Seems logical.

    LMAO

    In the US, before sports games people get together in the parking lot to drink and eat and have a good time before the game. "Tailgate" refers to the tailgate of a pickup truck.

    I'd skip the workout or do it at an earlier time.

    Get your hair done and skip the workout.

    Or skip the workout and reschedule the hair cut. I get that you're trying to grow it out and keeping up on trims is something that has to be done but will a few weeks or even a month be that detrimental to your hair? I doubt it.

    I completely understand why your husband would want to get there early and start the festivities because parking will probably be a b*tch.

    Or go do your own thing and meet up with them later. I don't think it's a huge issue. It's just a hair cut and a workout.

    So tomorrow, my husband wants to go with some friends to a pre season football game. We're gonna tailgate with friends and then go to the game-which is fine, don't get me wrong.

    Here is the problem. For over a month I have had a haircut scheduled for that morning. My plan was to get up somewhat early-get my workout and then go get my hair cut. Then we can leave for the game.

    He is not being flexible on the time. He wants me to either move my haircut to a different weekend or see if i can get in earlier.

    If I try to move it earlier, I will not have time to work out. It may be a LONG time before I can get it scheduled for a different day because she's good at what she does, so she's very busy most days and may have a hard time getting me in any time soon.

    I'm attempting to get my hair to grow out and so staying on top of trims is a difficult thing to do...

    Girls...do you sympathize? I feel like he's being kind of stubborn on leaving a LITTLE later to go tailgate...we won't be missing the game and will still have almost two hours for tailgating. I'm just annoyed.

    I totally sympathize with you and I know how difficult it can be to reschedule a haircut appt. I have been faced with similar situations a few times and I think if it was me, I would skip the workout if the hairstylist could see me earlier. If that is not an option, then I would keep everything as is and meet the other person later. Only problem with the last alternative is that you will be driving 2 cars. I would not reschedule the haircut.

    Being Irish, I can confirm we definitely don't tailgate here. More than likely it will be lashing rain, freezing cold and only the really loyal fans actually go and freeze their butts off supporting their team!! Lol..

    Thanks all for the good advice.

    I got the appointment moved up to earlier...do the workout on the way home and then shower and get to some tailgating...

    Pretty sure I'll reward myself with a brat and some awesome beer.

    Perfect solution! Congrats.

    Reading the comments leading up to this I was about to say "Workouts can be done any time of the day, 7 days a week. Haircuts can be scheduled for almost any day of the week. This particular game will only be a one-time event. Sure there are other games, but for this one event it seems acceptable to reschedule your workout."
    But you've already accomplished this on your own.

    You are definitely a different breed! I'm a Buffalo Bills fan and the games where it's 30 below 0 still see a packed house and women in bikinis! A little rain would never keep an American football fan away.
