Behold My Heavenly, Silky Locks!

Actually, I don’t have them anymore. So behold that:

 

Usually I go to a barber who just whacks off a bunch and gets paid $16.  This time I went to a fancy shmancy stylist, who whacked it off, thinned it out, cleaned the trimmings off of my face, and then assaulted me with gel.  In that picture, my hair is so stiff that if you shot me in the head the bullet would ricochet.  I already washed it out.

 

Every time I go to a Hair Person, I have to be prepared for the inevitable moment at the end where somebody looks down at the floor and goes “Is all that your hair?!” My hair does not grow long, it just grows MOAR.

 

Also, Hair Lady had one of those faces I just love—long but not sallow, sort of regal.  I told her that, and she was so happy she gave me a hug. This is why I still give random and slightly weird compliments when they enter my head.

And now … Music Quiz, Round Two, since I had so much fun the first time. I omitted all instrumental songs (name that tune: da dat dat da doot DOOT, doo!) and one or two that had already come up on the last quiz, and was left with these:

 

1. I’ve been cheated, been mistreated, when will I be loved?
