Some Sundays ago I spoke to my friends (veteran parents) Erik and Nicole. The two friends asked me if Alice had progressed to the pinching and hair pulling stage of babyhood. I said "kinda".
Well, Alice has gained a herculean level of strength in the past few days (must be the smashed yams). Now if you look at my hair you will see a motherly mullet. Long in the back- Ripped to shreds in the front. Most of the hair around my temple is ragged and about an inch long. It also came to my attention recently that the top layers of my hair are hiding an ample crop of wiry gray strands at the bottom. For the first time in my life I am considering a pixie cut. Not for fashion, but for self-preservation.
Do I have the bone structure so necessary for optimal short hair success? No I do not. Maybe if I dye the whole mess bright blue as I have always wanted then no one will notice my bones (or lack thereof).

You could go with a temporary dye. Why not? You live in Austin, after all...
That is a good point! I have a geographical hipness standard to maintain.
Great to see you last weekend by the way. Alice is still picking long red Aunt Becky hair out of her teeth.
Do the pixie. Besides, if you're still on the prenatals it will grow out in no time.
Good point about the prenatals, I hadn't considered that. I was just going to invest in hats to be safe.
