The Bald Look

I had an epiphany while taking a shower this morning. Jimmy had left all his hair care products lying on the sink after getting ready for his interview. I started totalling that stuff up and realized there is way too much money going into hair care...so I cut mine off. Yep, all of it.
I started with the buzzers and got it as close as I could with those. Then I got in the shower and went through three razors cutting up my scalp. The hair on top of my head just didn't want to go! I mean I stroked and stroked but it still has stubble in places. Blood was going down the drain like in the movie phsycho...(cue violin music.)
I took one last look at the Crew Fiber and put it away. Goodbye old friend. You will be missed.
The first thing I noticed is that I felt every molecule of air passing by. As I walked down the hall I could tell when I was accellerating and when I came to a stop by the feeling of air movement on my head. I think if I calibrated it I could tell you how fast I move at any time.
Jimmy was not amused with my new look. He says it makes my hearing aids stick out more. Eh. There was a time when I was vain about my hearing aids. That time is past. I like them. They let me get around in the world. If someone doesn't like them... can't help 'em.
I remember a great poster in the office of one of my many hearing aid dispensers. It said, " Your hearing impairment is more visable than your hearing aids." And it made me think of all the times I said, "excuse me?" or something like it.
So anyway I just have to cut Jimmy's hair off now. I'll have to wait until he's sleeping for sure...
