On having a shaved head: Turns out, you hold a lot of heat on your head. Its amazing how COLD it is without hair. A shaved head has a similar texture and sticky-ness as velcro. Wearing beanies and laying in bed is a new experiencce. I'm no longer just using lotion and sunscreen on my … Continue reading Random Thoughts
