My inspiration for this post came from my dear, longtime blogging friend, Debbie @ Musings by an ND Domer's Mom, who is not only a gifted...
I’ve noticed that something very interesting happens to a man as he gets older…As a man begins to loose the hair on his head…the hair follicles seem to relocate themselves on other parts of the body.
Such as: the upper back and the tips of the ears.
(places where I’ve NEVER had hair)
Damn…sometimes when I look in the mirror while shaving in the morning, my eyes will suddenly notice this “tuff” of long hair, sprouting from my ear tips.
(I’m suddenly reminded of a potbelly pig…or a warlock)
And no sooner do I cut these retched hairs, than two days later…they seem to blossom again.
I’m thinking of maybe just leaving them there and twisting them into little points; using some hair gel…so that people will think I’m a Star Trek groupie doing an imitation of Spock.
I’ve also noticed that on my shoulders and upper back, right below my hairline…sudden patches of fur have manifested. And sometimes in the summer when I’m wearing a t-shirt, I know that from the back…I must look like I’m turning into a werewolf.
But the WORST…and I mean the WORST place to have to deal with this multitude of hair madness…is in my nose.
(I really need a weed-eater for this one)
Of course I’ve always had hair in my nose, but as I’ve gotten older, it seems to have turned into a bumper crop.
And I don’t care how many times I trim my nose hairs…not two minutes later…another 10 grow.
(If I didn’t attend to this, it would look as though I had a fern growing out of my face)
And I can’t stand it when I notice that other men don’t keep up with this, on their own person.
Have you ever been talking to someone, and the whole time your looking at them, your eyes won’t leave the sight of this MASSIVE BUSH protruding from their nostrils??
I want no more, than to take a pair of hedge shears or eyebrow tweezers and say, “I BEG of you…let me do the honors, PLEASE!”
Oh, well…I guess this is just one of the many joys of aging.
This…and a Proctology examination...
Enjoy your holiday weekend, everyone!
P.S. And “hairy” on back now…ya, hear?
