The Spickler men have long had two distinct hair styles from which to choose: short and 'just-enlisted' short. For years, I lived on the edge by wearing mine short. Only recently have I succumbed to the call of the #2 blade and gone 'prison chic' as a friend recently called it. What few people know is that my hair doesn't get long; it only gets tall. And unless you're Will Ferrell and look stunning in tight basketball shorts, that's just not good. Walt, on the other hand, with his silky, little boy hair can go long like a champ. So, Daddy's been guilty of a little vicarious hair styling (or lack thereof) for the past, I don't know, two years. More recently, I've been fighting off the inevitable Mommy-escorted, cover of midday trip to the barber shop for several weeks now. So, without further adieu, I give you the crowning anti-establishment achievement of Walt's short life -- long, thick, in his eyes, curling on the ends, he'll-never-get-a-job-looking-like-that, mussed up, little boy hair . . . before Mommy makes him get it cut.
For perspective, I posed next to him. Setting aside his distinct lack of a post-graduate degree, who do you think is going to get called back for a second interview?
Looks like potential Rock Star hair to me!
ReplyDeletewhere's the interview? uh, huh. exactly.
ReplyDeleteGinger, I must say I like short neat hair too, but he does look cute. He'll be running to the barbershop, when the hair gets in his eyes playing ball or when his girlfriend tells him to get it cut (maybe you can brainwash Meredith)
ReplyDeleteGreat picture!
Great post. Very funny. "[D]istinct lack of a post-graduate degree." Classic. But let's remember - it's just memphis law.
ReplyDeleteI'm just glad to see more posts! I must admit we did have a talk with the older Sprinkles about the length of his hair....I, myself, am fond of the shorter 'dos.
ReplyDeleteI just like the idea of 3-year-olds applying for jobs. Wish I had thought of it myself, then . . . .
