Simple Pleasures

He did what it says in the tin I guess!

Don't get to do it nearly as often as I'd like, but another jaunt up the Pyrenees this weekend, culminating in a plunge into a glacial lake. A great hike just can't be bate

Just cut all my hair off again for the second time in 5 years, ad it's nice to not have a pile of ratt, dry straw on my head for a while. Not a big fan of having short hair but there's something weirdly satisfying about growing it back

If I tried to grow my hair at this stage it would look like little more than the idea of hair. Like a thought bubble forming above my head containing the most nebulous thought of hair.

It's a great feeling when you cut it all off. There's that tinge of sadness and regret - what the fuck have I done? - mixed with relief that the maintenance that goes with long hair is now unnecessary. And if you shave it, the bliss that goes with spreading a cold palm across your bare scalp is mighty.

I wouldn't have the patience to grow mine out again - lockdown was a help the last time - and if I did I suspect I'd have the Devin Townsend look down to a tee by the time it got ling enough.

Oh god give me til tomorrow and I'll be like "what the fuck did I do that for",it's definitely WAAAAY shorter than i wanted, but to be fair, it was badly needed cos i'm terrible at looking after it and I looked like some sort of cross between Wurzel Gummidge and Shane Embury. And sure it grows back.

Last time , it had been 30 years since I'd been in a barbers. When i told the lad that, he gave me the student discount because of the fact I hadn't been in a barber's since my junior cert

Currently going through the process of growing out both an ill considered mullet, and an ill considered lemmy beard  I hate the dog rough middle stage where I just have some mad curly bowl cut vibe going on on top of my dome...

I shaved my head for the first time since I grew my hair in 2022 and immediately regretted it. I couldn't wait for it to grow back.

I only had it long on top when I grew it back and shaved at the sides. I am now in the process of growing it the same length all over and currently in that scruffy / fuzzy phase on the sides which is annoying.
