Tonsorial Therapy - A Snippet

Your hair is getting lighter she said, referring to the black stripe going back from the top of my forehead, my skunk line, my last excuse to say mostly grey instead of white, or, as TBG just suggested, salt and light salt.... salt and pepper but not much pepper left.

It's been a tough summer.

Obviously.  Tell me.

And for an hour, as she snipped, we traded stories.  Her daughter is now a Staff Sergeant. FFOTUS is a fool.  Penzeys makes great spice blends.  And so on and so on as I felt my shoulders relaxing and my face smiling and then we were both laughing at I can't remember what and, for a moment, all was right in the world.
