a friend that is a stylist and she cut my hair. She did a really good job. And even though I tried to psych myself up for this, pre-grief and all, I'm kinda sad that I did it. After I had it cut I saw several men older than me with long hair, including one guy with white hair.

So I'm sad that I bought into the whole 'you're too old for this' crap.... :-(

I agree, and fuck that stylist who said you're too old for crazy color streaks!

My friend Bertha, who's reading today in our series, is in her sixties, runs a well known small press and literary center, is a respected Beowulf scholar and poet in her own right—and has spiky blue hair.
