Long or Short?

Hair, that is. I need your help! I'm getting my hair cut in about 2 weeks (my favorite stylist is on vacation until then) and I am completely undecided on what to do with it. It's pretty long right now and there are some very good things about it being long (especially on days like today when I'm having a good hair day). I can put it up in a pony-tail, it actually looks decent when I let it air dry and when I take a little time on it each morning, it generally looks good. There are downsides too. Mostly, that it takes forever to dry each morning and we are about to enter the lovely summer months here in Chicago where the general goal of each day is to spend as little time as possible with a hair dryer aimed at my head. And, I'm pretty sure my hair will just end up in a pony-tail every day because I will get tired of it being matted to the back of my neck from humidity and sweat.
But, if I go shorter with my hair I know that I have to actually spend time on it each day to make it look good. No just letting it air dry. At the same time, I think I look kind of cute with shorter hair...
I just don't know! Help! What to do you think?????????

Do you have a picture with shorter hair? I've never seen you with it so it's hard for me to say. I'm sure it would look cute, but I definitely feel you on the time it takes to maintain short hair. I'm always a fan of pulling it off my neck in the sweltering summer months.

PS: I'm going to try to not be offended that I'm not a "Cool Person" on your blog. ;)

It all depends on how short you'd plan to go but I echo Melissa's request for pictures of you with short hair, perhaps side-by-side to one with longer hair. Then I can offer a better opinion.
