What a difference a hair makes

First day back to work after vacation, this time though I gave my co-workers something to gawk at once laying eyes on me. I had my hair cropped short. Not that it was that long before but at least it had been combable - had I chosen to comb it. This is the shortest I've had it since I was about 4 years old, it's barely a quarter of an inch long. I'd been wanting to crop it for quite a while and with me cutting Ian's hair a couple of months ago with an old set of clippers I bought a new kit at Walmart and had Carol mow it down Friday night after returning from Madawaska Lake. She did Ian's hair last night so we're both cool in the breeze now. So today I received a number of different comments at the office from "did you lose a battle with a lawn mower "to high and tight, eh?" A couple of "it looks good". Some folks make like they don't even notice. There will be a few more days of this as there are about 85 people in the office and I haven't crossed paths with them all yet. I went through a similar situation about 3 or 4 years ago when I had my mullet cut off - don't ask... and no pictures either.
