The Buckets by Greg Cravens for January 29, 2015

I believe we have all had that Truman Show deja vu feeling that someone is listening to our life and changing the rules of the game as we move along. Or it may be normal paranoia that everyone in the universe feels.

Sigh. I had long hair since I was a kid, all the way up until 2008. I’m still not liking the buzz cut, but then again, I doubt I’d much care for the skinny ponytail. I wouldn’t mind it so much if god didn’t decide to put her thumbprint on the front left side of my head and say “Let there be normally thick hair in this one spot.”

Tell all the young people you know what’s going to happen to their hair. They’ll “believe” you, but they won’t believe you.

Sorry Sarah.

I believe hair loss is hereditary; my father had a full head of hair till the day he died, my mother’s father was bald on the top with hair on the side. My oldest brother followed my dad and my older brother followed my maternal grandfather. When my hair could not decide I had it buzzed off and flaunted the baldness.

Well, someone would certainly owe me some money!

My hair is thinning on top, sigh… I decided not to obsess and let the strands fall where they may. I just comb it all back and tie it off with rubber bands. That’s common here in the Southwest so the usual reaction is nothing; it’s not much of a pony tail. :-))

My Mum has fine hair and my Dad has thick.

I’ve took after my Mum for my hair colour and my Dad for the thickness of my hair.
