Trivial

 I've spent the last 30ish years mostly bald and clean shaven. 

I decided to actually let my hair grow where it may. Never had a beard or mustache. 

Didn't even know what color the hair would be. ( lotta red and grey with the brown). 

Thought I'd give it six months, but told anyone who asked that I'd never cut my hair again. 

Seriously, I just wanted to at least look like I was as old and cranky as I felt every once in a while.

The other morning before my shower, my wife said I have achieved the look. 

Mission accomplished. 

When someone knocks on the door unannounced and before you have showered, is it too much to ask that the person should be able to look at you and realize they have made an error in judgement?   I don't think so. 

I've got until the end of January to make my decision. I'm keeping tabs on maintenance costs and grooming time. Buzzing my head with shears was 10 minutes every 3 weeks.   Seems I'm using more shampoo.  I haven't owned a comb in decades. Somebody told me there are beard trimming kits and "product".     Seems to defeat the purpose. I'm really not that precious. 

We shall see. I like feeling my hair in the wind, and the reception is much better than it used to be. Stations are coming in loud and clear.

It might be something else, entirely.
