Grey is My New Least-Favorite Color
Everyone warned me that when I entered my mid-twenties all sorts of funny shit was going to start happening to me, especially physically.So far, I haven't encountered anything out of the ordinary - nothing on my body has dropped just yet, and I've been feeling pretty good...until today. Today I discovered not one, but multiple grey hairs on my head. And by multiple, I mean between 5-10. And I'm freaking out.
My first instinct was to pull those little f*ckers out, but that old myth/truth says that more will grow in its place, plus I don't want to get into the habit of pulling my hair and end up with clumps on my head later on in life from that weird hair-pulling syndrome I've heard of. My other option is just to color my hair periodically, which is fine. I've done it in the past because I wanted to, but now that I have to - well, that almost brings a tear to my eye.

Thankfully, hair loss is not in my genes - just grey hairs. I don't know what I'd do if I were a guy. This is one of the few areas where I actually pity men.
Sammartano,
Funny you mention stress. It's actually been a very stressful six months or so, with a lot of changes and more to come, I'm sure.
I also have a job which is fun and great, but extremely stressful. When you work in television, you have deadlines to meet, and when you don't meet them, you lose a lot of money. And when you lose money, you get screamed at, and when that happens, a little hair turns grey. Now that I think of it, I'm surprised I don't have more.
Maybe in a couple of months when it's all worked out I can kick Miss Clairol to the curb.
That's great, Chris, but are you still getting your hot self up here for 2/12? I need someone to appreciate my grey hairs soon.
