No more hair

My hair has been thinning since my early twenties, so always knew this day would come. Heather has too. Every time I told her I'm ready, she'd tell me to it wasn't necessary. That I had more time. My hair wasn't as thin as a thought.

After my most recent haircut, I told her that 2025 is the year I buy a set of clippers and start "cutting my own hair." She simply responded with "ok," so I knew it was time.

I feel great. I feel like the blind kid who, after being an outsider in school, joins a school for the blind. I feel normal. I don't feel like I ever need to wear a hat to hide my thinning hair.

Heather helped me time it just right. She's a wonderful partner.
