A Close Shave

So. The big news is. I shaved my head today.

Here’s my Facebook post:

“So. Have you ever felt the need to do something crazy and stupid out of the blue?
I just did. I cut off my hair. All of it. Yup. No joking. And this isn’t just some weird Facebook rant. I shaved my head. Went full Britney Spears psycho.
It wasn’t completely out of the blue actually. I’ve been kinda thinking about it. Hair is annoying. And I felt like.. I needed something. To do something. It’s June tomorrow. And I need a new me. I can’t keep going like I have been.
It feels pretty liberating actually. Although it’s probably not a good look for me. If they need someone to play the corpse of Anakin Skywalker in the new Star Wars movie they should just call me up. Still, I wear my cap outside so hopefully it won’t be too bad. I’m going to need a little time to let it settle and see what I think. Maybe I’ll be investing in Brogaine soon.
I have often gotten compliments about my hair. Once at the hair salon an old man said “I wish I had your hair!”. But the truth is that it’s been thinning since I was a teenager. From some angles it looked like I had a full set of luxurious hair. But from others it looked like I had a bad comb-over. We’ll see if anything grows back at all.
Yup. Never let it not be said that I don’t do crazy things. I hope the goats will approve.”

So there. Nothing more to say! Go go goat photos.


Look at that! I just wanted to take a picture of the clouds. That bird must have flown past just as I snapped the shot.

And videos. First the eternal struggle of the goat kids.

And a goatlog with some really really wack goat circus stuff.

And a goatlog with some crazy Palle jumping

And that’s all for this week folks, see you in the next one.

    What! You shaved your head? I am so disappointed with you, because . . . there . . . are . . . no . . . PICTURES! Hee, hee.

    You can’t just tell us that and leave us imagining things. We want pictures!!!

    Did the goats recognize you? Our boys always notice when we are wearing something out of the ordinary. I don’t think they notice if we get haircuts. They do like to smell our breath. Probably to make sure we aren’t eating goat burgers!

    What a coincidence. I was looking at blue and pink synthetic wigs online last night. Great minds think alike, I guess. Although I do think the goats might notice if my husband was wearing a long pink wig!

    Haha, sorry Deb! You’ll have to wait to next Sunday’s update to see pictures!
    The goats did recognise me, in fact they didn’t seem to notice. Of course I only took off my cap briefly for a couple of photos. Otherwise I’m keeping my hat on!
