(10,107 posts)I don't dislike grey hair, generally. It can be lovely. But I sort of wish I'd never stopped dying my hair. I mean, it was a pain in the keister to keep up with, and I don't miss getting dark dye spots on my shower curtain & floor, but it just feels like so much has happened over the past few years to age me far more quickly than is normal. I look at pictures from 4 years ago, and I feel like I've aged at least 10 years.
It would be nice to be free of vanity, but I'll give myself a partial excuse in that since, yes, I'm a bass player and am (less and less frequently, but still...) occasionally "on stage," I feel self-conscious about my appearance more so than I otherwise might. Then again, I was always self-conscious about everything!
Sorry, these pain meds I'm on are amplifying my natural over-analysis of every little thing and my tendency to go on and on about any topic!
Thanks again for the compliment!
