In reply to Brett.

Ah, another one of the downsides to blogs vs social media platforms is it's difficult (impossible?) to post photos in a comment -- I'm having trouble imagining you with Beethoven hair.

I was growing my hair long-ish over the last two years, mostly because I'd never done it and wanted to see what it looked like before it turns white. I cut it off earlier this year (because my mom hated it), but am pledging to start over, with the goal of getting it at least pony-tail length. It's turning white even faster than I thought, so I'm probably going to spend most of 2021 looking like a much chubbier version of Craig Federighi.
