Hey, I was bored (don't have a lot to do at the moment, as I'm in between jobs and moving in a week) so I shaved my head. I think it looks okay. I have really thin hair anyway, and it's not going to get better, so I may as well make it look less bad, right? I’m not going to grow it out in the non-thin parts, because that’s even worse, right?
I know that men are always asking about losing hair and its affect on their romantic life, and they always get the same positive feedback (from an endless string of women who claim to dig the whole bald, virile Vin Diesel/Stone Cold Steve Austin type). I'm wondering if the whole "shaved heads are hot" thing works if you're a younger guy like me, who, if not a complete wuss, isn't a hulking roughneck. It seems like shaved heads tend to appeal to women whose ideal man is a professional alligator wrassler named “T-Dawg”, who drives a monster truck and enjoys having bottles smashed over his head for fun (not that there's anything wrong with that. That’s all cool. That's just not me, that's all.) See, I don't really want to be that much different than I am; I actually like my basic personality. I’m exercising more, but that doesn’t mean I’m interested in bodybuilding/steroid addiction for the purpose of luring in muscle car-magazine models and striking fear into the hearts of punier men. However, those who are attracted to bookish, quiet types generally go for prettier guys with amazing cascades of hair (there are hives of hipsters all around my city, and they all look like they spend incredible amounts of time making their hair look like they just crawled out of their hipster bed). So is there no hope for me? Should I even consider this kind of stuff, or is being lonesome just something a guy’s gotta get used to?
Any feedback is cool. I'm considering uploading an image but I'm sort of chicken about it. You can get an idea of what I more or less look like from my profile gallery, though why you would want to is, of course, another matter entirely.

So, yeah, while the site changed, I was making plans for moving out of my apartment. Hoorah. I just spent two weeks in-between moving at my parents' house out of town, where I struggled with calling people and checking my email. But that's better now. Hopefully I'll get the job it looks like I'll be getting soon and life in general will start 'movin' on up'.
Hey, it's my first blog entry. Neat.
Man, the weather's been great recently. I always forget what a difference that makes in my mood. Winter always brings me down, especially the rain here in Washington. I should probably consider light therapy. Or move again.
Also, for the record, I haven't been checking my account here that often, since I've been trying to spend time outside and applying for jobs, financial aid, etc. Soon I'll upload a picture or something, I dunno...I'm not Cary Grant or anything, but it's the Internet, so there's way less attractive guys than me out there. Some, anyway.
