I've wanted dreads, for a long time, but I'm a cheap, slack bastard. So I plan to have a few people over, ply them with beer and ... other inducements, and have them spend an afternoon back-combing, teasing and rubbing till I have dreads.
Two things.
1) It is, I gather, a boring process in and of itself. It will, of course, be an afternoon of dope, DVDs, and friends, which will hopefuly make up for it, but I consider this "people doing me a boring favour", rather than any sort of party or social event per se.
2) The more I contemplate it, the more ... odd it feels. The only person who brushes my hair is
bunnikins. Not that there's anything sexual, or intimate about it, it's just ... a little personal. So feel free to express interest, but my criteria for selection may strike you as ... odd. Fair warning.
Which is not to say only my close friends should apply - in fact, possibly exactly the opposite. Strange new people may be perfect :)
meleah has already offered to help, and in fact triggered me finally getting off my arse to arrange it. Anyone else who wishes to drop over some Sunday arvo in a few weeks, speak now!
UPDATE: We've inked the date in for the 12th, subject to me getting home and asking
bunnikins if we're busy that day. So, the 12th. And let's hope we get it all done in one day :)
