Ask me anything you want.

1. Are there any downsides to having short hair?
2. Which is your favorite mode of public transportation, and why?
3. Do you have a preferred roast or blend of coffee?

These are slightly easier to answer than the preceding ones

I. Are there any downsides to having short hair?

I have to get it cut much more frequently than two or three times a year. Hairdressers make me pay more than a man even though I expressly request a man's haircut. I get sunburnt on the back of my neck more easily. And the wavy/frizziness is more difficult to control; I wouldn't mind this except that it looks really silly where my hair sticks up behind my pillbox forage cap--and it stays that way after I remove the hat. I don't know what hair products to use to rectify said frizziness.

II. Which is your favorite mode of public transportation, and why?

Probably the subway and its ilk because one is saved the bother of planning departure times, waiting particularly long for a ride (when the system is working properly), or signalling stops to the driver. I generally prefer rapid transit systems that travel above ground level (e.g. Chicago's El) because, obviously, the scenery is more interesting. I like streetcars and trolleys too... because they're quaint.

III. Do you have a preferred roast or blend of coffee?

To tell the truth, I'm not all that fond of coffee and don't drink it often enough to have developed a preference. (Shock! Horror!) I love the smell of coffee but prefer the taste of tea. In fact, I'm completely at a loss as to what I should order when I go into a coffee shop looking for a caffeine fix. (Aside from tea, of course.)
