Boredom mixed with electricity can be fun
See, this is what happens when I’m left with time on one hand and hair clippers in the other. Not by choice, my hair had gotten longer than it had been in years. Simply put, I had been too busy to cut it. Yes I do it myself. You think I’d pay for someone to essentially run a tiny mower across my scalp. I’m way too cheap … um … smart for that.
But as the weeks and months rolled on since my last cut, I started to think I should grow it out like I did back in 1994. Ya know … go for that Robert Smith meets homeless guy look again. The only problem was that my hair now—though still thick—sorta has the texture of a paintbrush. So, in a fit of frustration and boredom, I once again chopped it all off.
In the middle (literally) of it, I decided to snap a picture. Thanks to my total lack of vanity—or so I’d like the world to think—I’m posting the image for everyone to poke fun at. I briefly thought about keeping this way but thankfully came to my senses and finished the job. An ex of mine once said that chopping off one’s own hair is a sign of insanity. Insane or not, I find it very cathartic. Anyhoo…
