"A Little Time," The Beautiful South
I have a size 7-3/4 head, which means I can't just wear any old hat. When Robert went out for Little League last spring, for example, all the volunteer dads were given hats. They fit all the other dads just fine, but when I crammed mine onto my ubernoggin, it looked someone had tried to stretch a condom over a cantaloupe.
When I was a kid I had a teacher who had about as much hair as I have now. He always used to say he never saw himself as bald, only that his head had outgrown his hair. At the time, I thought this was about the lamest thing anyone could say about anything. And yet, I said the exact thing to Robert yesterday when he was making my Wii avatar.
Apropos of something, Robert named that avatar "Dork."
