My afro


I eventually came to notice that my hair curled when I let it grow out some. Using this to my adavantage, I grew an afro my sophomore year of high school and then again in 2003. Some may say that it was technically a "euro" since I have european descent compared to african descent. The first afro I grew eventually had to go because I was outside sweating all day and playing basketball. It was pretty cool though. The second edition I cut before the start of spring quarter my sophomore year of college and grew all the way until christmas that year. I had to wear a visor all summer when I was working construction to keep all the hair out of my face. I got it cut because I was leaving for brazil in january and had had enough of it. I was getting random compliments at parties and bars around campus so that was pretty cool. I did eventually decide that the afro was getting a little thin on top, which meant I was losing my hair in some manner. It was almost a huge pompadour up front by the time I got it cut. Also, I was going to be in a wedding when I got back on valentines day and the bride was not going to have any of that. The picture I put with this post was from high school, and a 16 year old me. If I find the older, better picture I will post it one day also. 

Farming went pretty well today, I am figuring out this software that dad wants me to run a little bit better. Dad has also apparently decided that I am going to be in charge of all the tobacco spraying this year as "I don't want to do everything" has been proclaimed. 

I also checked the reds schedule today and they are playing in St. Louis on my birthday. However, St. Louis is not an impossible distance away.
