Hair or not to hair, that is the question...

I am reaching an interesting and fairly pivotal point in my life.  To be frank, and there's no easy way to put this, I am getting thin on top and in front.   The simple fact is,as I approach 45, that I need to start looking seriously at bothering to have hair in general.  This has been something I have had on my mind for a long time since I found out that male pattern baldness follows the maternal line, and my grandfather was effectively bald from 50.

OTOH - Bald worked pretty well for my grandfather, and its more acceptable now than it was.  Plus I'm told I have a decent head shape.

So...  I don't know exactly when, but in 2013 I'm going to have to give up on the hair thing.

Anyway... it's weird, a little scary, but it happens to us all.
