A beautiful day for fluttering

This afternoon it was beyond beautiful outside. Truly one of those days that makes you feel like even Nebraska has its share of paradise. Unfortunately, I never made it outside until late afternoon, but it still made for some really great walking around campus to and from a meeting. :)

On the drive home, I opened up the windows and the sun roof. The sun was beating down, the wind was whipping around, and it was awesome. It was when I checked the rear-view mirror that I noticed it...

Apparently, one hardy little hair on the very top of my head has been ducking the razor and trying to grow (it's not like I have to be all that thorough in the wasteland up top). :) It was glowing brightly in the sunlight from the open sunroof. My solitary hair (I swear the thing is probably 1/2 inch long... I'm ready for a comb-over) was fluttering for all it was worth in the breeze.

Maybe if I concentrate really hard... mind over matter, another hair will pop out and join it. Then it wouldn't have to be lonely. As it was, my hair and I enjoyed the rest of the drive home together.
