Hair Today.... ::

I think I'm losing it.

My hair that is. My dad is mucho bald, and I always figured I'd go the same way, if for no other reason than that my Mom's dad was also mucho bald. So that old failsafe about where the actual genetic predisposition for hair loss comes from, not so safe in this case.

The thing is, I've been shedding mad amounts of hair for years, with no visible effect. And I've read that it's normal to lose 50 to 100 hairs a day as a result of just regular shedding type hair loss. As a result of pulling it, brushing it, using it as a broom, etc. Anyway, latley I've noticed a lot of hair precipitating from my head, and I'm getting mucho paranoido.

The thing is, I'm vain. I'm shallow. I'm a man. I always have been and I planned on being so for quite a bit longer. But if my hair all falls out, I'm not going to be able to get much out of being shallow. Not that I get much out of it now. Actually, I guess I really won't be missing all that much. Because, you really have to be good looking in the first place in order to miss the perks of being good looking. So, technically, even if my whole head fell off, it wouldn't really effect my life that much.

Plus, I always see really goofy looking dudes with really attractive women. Of course, I've been goofy looking for some time, and that doesn't seem to be garnering much attention.

I guess this could be really good for me. Maybe it teach me the value of looking really deep within someone instead of judging them by their outward appearance. Or maybe it will just make me miserable and give me one more reason to hate everyone. That sounds more likely.

Regardless of what happens, I'm really going to try to stop worrying about it. The stuff I have still grows like weeds, and I get it cut all the time. So I guess I'll just keep mowing it down until its turns that yellowish brown colors and gets trampled under soccer cleats.
