Taking after my father

[jethrien]

My mother's hair didn't start to go noticeably grey until I was in college. My father's hair, on the other hand, was apparently starting to turn when he was in college.

Guess which one it looks like I'm taking after.

I mean, it's not noticeable yet to someone just looking at my head from a normal distance. But you can pick pretty much any random spot, part the hair, and find at least four or five glints of silver growing along the part. And of course, they're more coarse and curly than my original hair. While none of it's noticeable now, at this rate, I'm willing to bet it will be noticeable before I'm 30.

So the question is, how vain do I intend to be?

I've had two or three grey hairs that have been there since I was in elementary school. But the total number has wildly increased in the last couple months.
