Hair Today . . .

I can always tell when I got a bad haircut by the reactions that others give me. It is especially bad when they can't just ignore that it happened. This time, my hair was as long as it has been since my mom used to cut my hair and put it off as long as possible. In other words, my "You look like Clark Kent from Smallville!" hair changed to the "When are you being deployed to Iraq?" hair, and no one could pretend not to have noticed.

Awards for Best Reactions of the Day:

Second Runner-up
FHE Group: You cut your hair! Huh. (One girl says, "Come on, you're a handsome guy," which apparently means that I can pull off a bad haircut. Another says, "Well, I like it," like maybe I might take her out some time if she defends my tight fade.)

First Runner-up
JTS: Wow, your hairline is receding! It really shows with the new haircut.
Limon: Thanks. I asked the barber if he could highlight my baldness. It goes so unappreciated. If you need me, I'll be either be ordering Rogaine or drinking rubbing alcohol.

Grand Prize
History Buff: So, where did you get your haircut?
Limon: BYU Barbershop.
HB: I hear Bon Losee is really good.
Limon: Oh?
HB: Yeah. If they mess up then they refund your money and fix it.
Limon: Wow.
HB: Maybe you should go there next time.
Limon: Yeah. Maybe.

At least after all the stress this haircut has caused me, I won't have to worry so much about my hair, as it is beginning to fall out entirely. So much for trying to follow the honor code.
