I just recently started using a comb again and the results are astounding! My hair has gotten a little long, and now that my barber has gotten a real job, scheduling a haircut is a little less convenient. Combing it when I get out of the shower helps it "relax" a bit, though Beth said it looked too "flat" today. Anyway, I kinda like when it's less all-over-the-place and more "flat".

The point is, I think the last time I used a comb was fifth grade picture day, when they handed out those little disposable combs to us, you know, to put the finishing touches on our look. Which was kind of important, I suppose, since these were gonna be the pictures our parents would be handing out to our relatives for the next year. And I guess if you were the flirting type (oh and I was), then you might be treating these pictures as your dating resume for the next year, so looking good is a must.

Being that it's been so long, I kinda forgot how much the little things can hurt when not carefully directed along the scalp. How is it 9 and 10 year olds are safer with these things than I am? Do they make special combs for younger kids like those safety scissors that wouldn't cut whip cream? And why is it necessary to make the "teeth" of the comb so sharp? I think I'm asking too many questions.

Combs are pretty cool though. If you ever get the chance to use one, I highly recommend it.

Oh, and JDawg's coming back soon! (for visit).
