Why does it keep growing?
Ok, I know. I’ve let myself go a little lately. In the past, I’ve taken to cut off my hair – usually all of it – when it finally felt uncomfortable. That usually happens on one hot day while toiling outside, but summer has passed. I’ve toiled outside, it’s been hot, and yet I’m not been moved to cut off my hair. Sitting in the bath the other day I got to thinking…
Am I becoming more comfortable with discomfort? And, what is with all this hair? I mean, besides my current hair-do. How odd it is that our species has this uncurbed growth of hair on the head. Is this somehow connected to the other uncurbed activity going on up there between our ears? And what happened to all the rest of our hair? Did we trade in our hair for clothes? It is all very odd, and it is even odder that I feel it odd. Perhaps I should cut my hair… nah, it’s winter-ish now. Well, it should become uncomfortable by next summer. Maybe it will get caught in my bicycle sprocket.
