gridlore: Doug looking off camera with a grin (Penguin - Bling)

One of those little personal maintenance issues that I tend to ignore is haircuts. Even though I prefer having my hair cut military-short, I tend to put-off and delay until I have to get the weed-whacker out.

I'd love to have long hair, but genetics has foiled me on this wish. Even post-chemo, my hair is just thick enough to turn into a bush rather than rock-star shoulder-length hair. And frankly, I have neither the time or money to get all the trimming, layering and other arcane rituals to get and keep Steve Harris-class hair.

Today, being a day off, we went out to do some errands. After almost leaving my favorite Vietnamese hair place because of the wait, I got a young woman who, even through the language barrier, understood that I wanted a half-inch left on the top, quarter-inch on the backs and sides. Now I just need to shave (oh, man do I need to shave) and trim my beard, and I'll look human again.

And yet...whenever I try to picture you in my mind, this pops up...

The build is right, as is the basic shape of the face. Hell, my beard has looked that like from time to time. But the hair? I wish.
