My hair. No, I'm not gay. Well, not that gay.

I never look in the mirror in the morning. I mean, I might catch a glimpse as I'm brushing my teeth or something, but I don't usually shave in the mornings, I've never plucked, trimmed or otherwise adjudicated my eyebrows, and I don't brush or comb my hair.

Usually, I am in my car on my way to work within fifteen minutes of waking up. Some people are surprised at this, but I don't really see why it would take any longer. I wake up, go to the bathroom, brush my teeth, put clothes on, sometimes grab a piece of toast or something for breakfast (usually not), and then leave... Why does it take people longer? I mean, hell, how much makeup do girls really need to put on?

Anyway, I was washing my hands in the bathroom at work today and noticed a giant plume of hair sticking straight out from the back corner of my head. So I guess that's why people look in the mirror in the morning. Hm.

Ehh, I still don't think it's worth it, honestly. Unless my hair is longer and a bad hair day would be not only embarrassing (don't really care), but also a significant distraction for coworkers, or anyone else who sees me that day.

Speaking of which, I am thinking about not cutting my hair for a while. I always cut my own hair, and usually I just buzz it all off, then forget about it until it starts getting long and curly and tangly and puffy and then cut it all off again. Since I graduated from college, I've kept it pretty short, but I'm thinking I might let it go again. So what do y'all think, short or long? I could put up pictures (of the options), but is that safe? Is it? Is it?




















Also, everybody, apparently this week is delurking week. So leave a comment. What better opportunity to tell me whether you think I look better as a fop or a skinhead, am I right? Yes I am.

I'm a sucker for a buzzcut. Simple, hot, and requires no maintenance.

But put up pictures for the fun of it!

Yup, I think we need visuals . . .

Fine, so there's pictures there now. I want to let you all know I'm uncomfortable with this. Can someone steal my identity from a picture? Shit shit shit.

Yup, I just stole it. I've already taken out a cc in your name and charged it up the wazoo. MUAHAHAHA!

I like the shorter version.

Also, I keep meaning to comment about your last post b/c of what happened at work on Monday, but I keep not having time. Some day.

I think I like it shorter because you look more sober?

tiff said...

yea, you looked like a stoned DMB fan with long hair. Not that that isn't a look... but buzzed all the way.

I also took out a credit card from your picture, and recently got a passport. So thanks!

I love the skin head look, I'm a really bad Jew.

A Margarita said...

The buzzcut looks hotter.
