A relationship longer than my marriage.

[elfs]

I've had my hair long-- halfway down my back long-- for twenty years. It's a pain in the neck to wash and dry and care for, but I've always had it this way and I've kinda liked it. But after watching a few episodes of Queer Eye and commenting that every time Kyan gets his way and cuts it all off it looks good. About the only one he left long was Tom C.'s, and even that went from halfway down the back to shoulder-length. So after watching an episode, Omaha said that if I wanted to cut it short, she would back me on it.

I'm seriously thinking about it. I doubt I'd be willing to go through with it. Too many other people like it the way it is. It's just that as I get older it seems to be ratty and, well, unprofessional-looking.

So, since I'm incompetent and unwilling to read the "how to do a poll" thingy, I'm just gonna ask: what do you think it would be like without all that hair following me around?

I have never met you in person and therefore have no comment on your hair.

However, I just ran across your journal (by reference from supergee's), and remember you from Usenet, and the Ken Shardik stories, and wonder if you'd object if I added you to the list of people whose journals I read regularly?
