Maybe It Is Starting to Grow

I can't see any new hair, but Al says it's growing in. GL and Sweetie both thought it was growing. Maybe. But if so it is not growing in fast enough. I want more hair and I want it now.

This next has absolutely nothing to do with hair, but it's what is on my mind. The longer I work at the book store the more I get annoyed with people who leave a huge mess. It is a bookstore. I don't expect people to put there books away. But I do expect them to throw out their trash and bring their dirty dishes back to the cafe.

Yesterday was one of the days when I wanted to lecture several mothers. Two sets of mom's and toddlers came in at the same time. The moms sat and read magazines while the toddlers ran around pulling books of the shelves. That wasn't the problem. It happens a lot. Most moms either put the books away or put them in a stack. These mom's left the books scattered all over the kid's department. Several of the books were upside down (breaks the spine of the book) and one of the kids tore a page out of the book and scattered the paper around. Grr.

Oh well, it is part of the job and I can always go and mutter about them to coworkers and friends. And I do. It makes me happy.

I am working full time (30 hours) now. We wanted dental insurance and I needed to work 30 hours a week to qualify, I want to become the child's lead and I need to work 30 hours to do that and Al and I want to pay for the new house and I need to work 30 hours. The 30 hours isn't bad, but it is an adjustment. I am used to having more time to knit, quilt, sleep or goof off. I miss that goof off time. In addition I spend more time around messy, arrogant people who could clean up after themselves.

Hair lyrics

Intro

She asks me why, I'm just a hairy guy.
I'm hairy noon and night, hair that's a fright.
I'm hairy high and low, don't ask me why, don't know.
It's not for lack of bread, like the Greadful Death.
Darlin'

Give me a head with hair, long beautiful hair.
Shining, gleaming, streaming, flaxen, waxen.
Give me down to there hair, shoulder lenght or longer
Here baby, there, momma, ev'rywhere, daddy, daddy.

hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Hair, hair, hair.Flow it, show it,long as God can grow it, my hair.

Let it fly in the breeze and get caught in the trees,give a home to the fleas in my hair.
A home for fleas (yeah) a hive for bees (yeah),
a nest for birds, there ain't no words for the beauty, the splendor, the wonder of my:

Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it,long as God can grow it, my hair

I want long, straigth, curly, fuzzy, snaggy, shaggy, ratty, matty,
oily, greasy, fleecy, shining, gleaming, streaming, flaxen, waxen,
knotted, polka dotted, twisted, beaded, braided,
powered, flowered and confettied, bangled, tangled, spangled and spahettied.

Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Hair, hair, hair.Flow it, show it,
long as God can grow it, my hair

They'll be ga-ga at the go-go when they see me in my toga,
my toga meade of blond, brilliantined, biblical hair.
My hair like Jesus wore it, Halleluja I adore it, Halleluja Mary loved her son,why don't my mother love me?

Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Hair, hair, hair
Folw it, show it
long as God can grow it, my hair

Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Hair, hair, hair
Folw it, show it
long as God can grow it, my hair

I've stripped River out - I have more hair than I know what to do with. You can have your choice of carmel brown or black or a mixture of both. Glue it onto a swim cap and your ready to go.

Good Lookin

PS when did we decide to get to gether again? Neither Sweetie or I can remember!
