the problem with these milestones is that they count down, not up

Also, this morning, I found a grey hair trying to hide insouciantly in a whorl of bangs. Had to yank it out to make sure it just wasn't a trick of the lighting. It wasn't a trick of the lighting.

You, my friend, I shall name Proof Positive.

At 36, I've got a few grey hairs mixed in my mass of curly locks. The cool thing is that, as men, it doesn't really matter.

Except for the makers of "Just For Men" hair coloring products, who do their best to try and convince us that yes, it does matter because shallow women won't go to bed with you if you have a salt and pepper beard.

I don't listen to them. Mostly cause I don't have a beard, but also because I think it will be a treat to fully go grey. Dad did a very good job of it, and considering I get almost everything else from him (bad teeth, a well-placed "DAMMIT!" to shake the timbers) I suppose I'll go the same way and it'll be a-ok with me.

(don't tell anyone, but it *doesn't* matter. also? doesn't matter for women, either. TELL NO ONE.)

IT JUST DOESN'T MATTER!
