Got it!

Not short enough!

It's much easier to get guys to talk about what they like about long hair.
My understanding is that they particularly like it during sexytimes -- I think maybe when the woman tosses it around, or something?
But I gotta say, while I think Tim's longer hair does look really good on him, it is so goddamn annoying during sexytimes. *My* hair in my face is annoying enough, but *his* hair in my face? Headband time! (And what's more sexy than a headband on a dude, huh, ladies? AMIRITE?)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

A couple.
One guy I wished he had more hair. He had incredible hair, and he had worn it down to his waist, but before I met him. That would have been nuts. Otherwise, a big deal of not caring.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Eh, hair is manageable during sexytimes, it just takes a certain amount of effort. But my established predilection for long hair on guys is a matter of record. I even had a concert hangout buddy who I was dismayed to discover had cut his hair (only to shoulder length) before a show. He cut it all off after a bad breakup when he turned 40.
The SO stopped with long hair when he started balding, because he didn't want to be bald guy with a ponytail. So now he's balding mohawk guy. But I love his hair, every way he's ever had it.

Well, I'm new to it, since this is the first time Tim has had long hair since we've been together, and all my previous shenanigans were with short-haired dudes.
Maybe some sparkly hair clips? (Actually, he would probably dig that.)

Displaced wildlife (possums, raccoons, feral/stray cats, skunks, deer)
Most of those wildlife will stay around to bedevil your new neighbors. The deer will eat all their new landscaping, the cats will use their mulch as litter, and the raccoons will get into their garbage cans. As far as I know, there's no way to get rid of the evil possums. (They like to sit on the fence behind my house and taunt the dog.)

You should totes explore that. Maybe a French braid.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

We had a possum encounter at the park today! A brush-tailed possum, to be precise. It was wandering about on the ground, on its way to another tree to eat some budding flowers. Ryan was quite impressed, and I could point out to Biyi that the underside of its tail was bare (better grip on branches).

I think after the two jobs I have to monitor Sunday midnight, I don't have any more midnight weekend monitoring...for at least a week. There is also a Sunday 9-11AM wait-for-the-thumbs-up gig I've been avoiding, since it's been about a month of midnights and I didn't want to hem my ER visits between work at two ends.
The information security officer tried to convince me to add to the three jobs I have this weekend by seeking emergency board approval for a job where he's doing the work--he wanted me to do the paperwork and monitoring. I do like to establish I'll do random stuff outside my established field of expertise (I want to be able to grab for good projects), but there are limits. I opened the ticket for the rest of the tech work surrounding his task, but dude, you're the entire officer of all the security. It's not my fault you're the only person in that group. I don't do your paperwork.
I told him I'd be more than happy to help him fill out the forms, though. He was pretty aghast at me not wanting to monitor a nine hour job (neither of mine should take more than an hour) Sunday morning that he'd have to be awake for anyway.
I'm not going to lie. It would be great if people were taking notice that I worked out a way to accelerate the execution of this task so it wouldn't risk affecting our immovable but unknown deadline. I WANT MY GODDAMNED GOLD STAR.
Shit, it's performance review time and I'm weeks overdue. No star for me...
