Up Top

Flickr: Up TopAs you know, I recently turned 29 and I’ve been semi-comfortable with my balding head for the last two or so years. But recently things have taken a turn for the worse… On Wednesday night Robyn had to pluck grey hairs from the sides of my head. As an aside, I should note I’m not the only person in the house turning grey, we’ve noticed grey patches behind Charlotte’s ears, she feels my pain of turning grey before our time.

So now, at Robyn’s behest, I’m gonna try to keep my head like a phrenologist’s wet dream. I’m not going as far as taking the old Gillette to it, but short enough that it’s not noticeable that it’s balding and greying. I’m still kinda sad that it’s come to this, but at least I outlasted both my dad and brother in the hair stakes.

I guess one bonus is I’ll be kinda cool up top now the hot summer months are approaching, and I’ll save a ton in shampoo costs as I use less than a new born baby.

    Hey. Dont blame me. I am a victim not the perp. The genes are carried in Mothers side. All my uncles were bald as was my grandfather. It was written in the stars that I would go slappy. I would love to change it but there ya are.

    I dunno about that statement, Marilyn…

    He may have some hair, but he certainly doesn’t have all his hair!

    But besides that, I read somewhere that the baldness gene doesn’t always come from the mother’s side. But for the sake of any sons we may have in the future, I hope that article I read isn’t true! ;)

    Awww, come on Greg, get out the Bic and shave it off – you know how much fun it is trying to get a t-shirt on when it’s sticking to your head. :D
