One Sketch #12 In the Barbers

Yeah, I'll be honest, I found it very difficult to get any energy to do anything today. Since reading "Why We Sleep" I've really tried to cut right down on the amount of caffeine I'm drinking. I did sleep longer than 7 hours last night, but I've just not had any oomph today - caffeine withdrawal? Still, next week I'm heading off to Kaunas in Lithuania for a few days, and I wanted to get some Euros for the trip. While I was out, I popped into the barbers to get my hair cut, and made this very quick, surreptitious sketch while I was there: -

As you can see, it's just a very simple line drawing made very quickly on the spot, but sometimes you've just gotta work with what you've got. I remember having my hair cut in the same place this time last year, while I was off work with depression, and talking with the barber about my upcoming trip to Prague. It was while I was in Prague that I started to feel just a little more like myself - so a good memory.

As for verse. . .

It don't take long
To cut my hair
Each time I go
There's less hair there
I'm not quite bald
I think that's fair
But on top there's
More skin than hair.
