Helmet Head

I had my hair cut and dyed last night. The haircut is inconsequential; the hair color is WOW, DARK! I too, am still recognizing myself. Fun to explain all day.

On the quad at lunch I greeted the usual group of senior boys by their Big Tree. They acknowledged my New Look with gestures and some vague utterances. I said, "Yeah, well, you guys have given me grey hairs, so I had to cover them up."

One philosophical student replied, "You know, Ms. M., it sort of kills the idea of covering up grey hair if you tell us you have it."

Huh.
