I would have misidentified that as a Jane Austen rather than Jane Eyre joke, because I am ignorant, but I would have laughed, because it is funny.

I have an appointment to get my hair cut tomorrow at the place with the shampoo station inside the old vault. I have no idea what I want, I just know I don't look how my hair is now. I hope they can work with that.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

I haven't had a proper haircut since May. I've been doing homejobs ever since, and I need to stop doing that so the stylists have something to work with, but, man, I need to chop the back so I don't have a ski jump from tilting my head back.

Also, too much hair in the drain and on my comb, good lord, I don't want to go to the doctor about thinning hair. I swear, everything my mother is afflicted with in her mid-sixties, I'm being assaulted by in my mid-thirties. I blame it on her being engulfed in pesticides on Long Island in the fifties and passing bad genetics onto me.

I can't believe I misremembered that punchline.

My last haircut was also May, I think. Hard to remember.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I just made a haircut appointment yesterday! But it's not until next Friday. I write the date on the stylist's card, so I know my last cut was the end of June.

Oh, I have my last appointment in iCal and it was in March. Longer than I thought, but changing salons is hard.

My hair is thinning. I changed the part in my hair and I'm doing what is essentially a brush over to minimize the visible curve of my skull through the hair. I'm not worried about it. Yet.

Nutty: Cutest typo in a Literary thread ever. I'm sitting here imagining Jane Eyre as a giant, long-necked dinosaur bashing in the skulls of other dinosaurs to proclaim herself Queen! Queen of the primordial swamp!!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Minoxidil helps with thinning hair on the crown, but it stops working when you stop using it.
