hair

heh. so periodically, when i try out a new hairstyle at work, one of the engineers (who has his own set of hair woes) seems to feel it's necessary to tell me he doesn't like my hair-do.

to his credit, he only tells me when he doesn't like it - he won't tell me when he does, or if i do something cool that meets his approval he might compliment me (usually after making some equally mean crack at me first, to keep equilibria).

but can i really care that much when its coming from a guy with shoulder-length curls?

a guy who dressed up in a pink bunny suit for our company holiday party?

for some reason, i do. of all the un-hip people that i work with, he's one of the least hip -- clothing and hair-wise -- and yet i still respect is opinion on these things.

weird.
