I have no excuse. It seemed like a good idea at the time. In fact, it still does. I love it! It's so much fun - it still surprises me every time I look in the mirror.
And I get such a great reaction from other people. Total randomers stopping me on the street to ask where I got it done. Complete strangers telling me how much they love my hair. And of course, it wouldn't be any fun without the disapproving stares.
Salt Lake City has (one of?) the world's largest genealogy libraries and I've invented a wonderful back story involving a long hidden family history involving an incident with an ancient Roman deity and a peacock. This is accompanied by sage head nodding, until I see the reference to bestiality make the connection in people's brains. Hilarious!
So now, I'm finishing up the very last of my research work here... In the past week I've done eight interviews, sat in on four meetings and one conference, and made a preliminary presentation of my research. It's now Tuesday afternoon and I'm on a lunch-time flight to Chicago on Friday. Between now and then, I've got another four interviews and two more meeting scheduled. The new hair makes for an AWESOME ice-breaker! :)

This thesis is going to be one hell of a boundary object!

Best get on with it so!
