An announcement.
I now have hair. Check it!
I wanted to let you know because it is one of my proudest personal achievements of 2006. In some places, it is as long as 6 inches. I know because I measured. That's up from a record low of less than 1/4 inch (post-buzzcut, March 1999) and an average of about 3 inches over the past eight years.
And it wasn't easy. President Bush may have been busy in his spare time last year, clearing brush, but I was busier--growing inches and inches of hair, right on top of my head!
I would like to thank my friends, for sorta believing I would actually grow it this time, and my awesome hairstylist Mindie, whose wise counsel prevented me from breaking out the clippers in month 3, and the makers of bobby pins, who may not realize that they are literally HOLDING LIVES TOGETHER. Cheers.

Whoa. Looks good!
Nice job, Waage! It looks great. Soon you'll be able to put it in a bouncy, co-ed ponytail. That's my fave.
I've seen the hair recently. There was definitely a kickin bounce going on.
