lightbulb moment

I have a strange relationship with my hair. I realized exactly the terms in which to discuss this during a rather banal class discussion that started with an excerpt of Jack Halberstam's Female Masculinity. 

My forearm hurts from writing pages and pages of a study guide for an exam I took on Tuesday, so I'll write about that later. (but no, this is not about to turn into a me-questioning-my-gender-identity piece)

But that's why it made me so happy when you said you liked my hair short. I feel right with it short.
