Wonderful!!!

I've found that humor is helpful, too. One time a guy (with male pattern baldness/shaved) asked me how I get my head so shiny. With a straight face, I told him I use a really fine grade of sand paper....

Awesome blog ! and you got a new job too? you rock! congrats to an awesome day :o)

Comment by Norm on June 9, 2010 at 7:17pm

Well OF COURSE you got a new job. It's not like you're gonna be taking time off for "bad hair days", is it??
REALLY good news about the new job, though. See? Told ya baldies have more fun... hope the new one's close to your old one, so you can pop in from time to time and wind up BBBB now and then. Hey, now it's summer, maybe she'll be having a barbecue she'll invite you to. And it'll be the BBBBBBQ.... :)

Mary, love the sandpaper gag... you obviously used it dry, judging from your humour! ;)

Yeah, I kept a straight face for a minute, then told they guy (who looked like he believed me) that I didn't have to do anything to get this beautiful shine!

Another thing I frequently do is tell bald guys "I like your hairstyle"...always gets a smile and usually a compliment back (and no, I'm not flirting - I'm married). But, if I were single, it wouldn't be a bad thing....

Right, so as a singleton, all I need to do is go up to a bald guy and.... naah, hang on... :)

Amazing what you can get away with by keeping a straight face, isn't it? When peeps have slow response from their computers, I usually tell them they've got the chair leg on the network cable and they're stopping the data from getting through.... I do sometimes fear for the future of the human race. :)

Congrats on the new job Jennifer. Haa, and you thought nobody would hire you because you are bald.

So Norm, do you think Baldies have more fun than blonds???????????

Love the sandpaper gag Mary, I'll steal that one. Congrat's on the new job Jennifer!

Kudos to you! It seems like we have had similar issue with the job and stress. I think my big problem is the stress of people at work and my hair issue. I had an interview for a good job last week and if it meant to be it will. Trying to keep positive all the time.

Do Baldies have more fun than Blondes.... d'ya know, I get the feeling I'm being set up here... :)

OK, go on, I'll bite.... :) .... but Mos Def they have more fun! For a start, they can BE a Blonde by plonking a wig on, and having lotsa Blonde Fun (er, whatever that is... ). But then, once bored with the Bimbo Bit, the wig can come off and all sortsa mayhem can ensue!
Imagine being in the throes of passion as a baldy... you can spread chocolate or cream on your bonce, and top it off with a cherry. Who could resist that??? Not me... then again, I do have a sweet tooth (just the one, these days). :)
Can't do that if you're a blonde... well, you CAN, but yeurgh... what a mess!! :)

Lesson Two to follow, but only if there's enough interest and it's worthwhile me running the course. Hee-hee! :)
