Hats off to you, Ben!

It has come to my attention that people don't recognize me without my hat on. I didn't even realize I wore my hat that often. It is a good hat: worn in, weathered. It's like a favorite pair of jeans.

But I don't think I DO wear a hat that often. Do I? Some days, I just wake up too late to do anything, so I thrown on the hat. But in the last couple days, I've received numerous comments on how I look totally different without the hat, as if I ALWAYS wear the hat.

But I don't always wear the hat. Some times, I actually do my hair. I think it looks nice. Some times I don't do my hair. It doesn't look that great, but when it's long, it's long. Some days it's a hat day. Others I actually take the time to look nicer. Either way, I'd hope you'd know who I am with or without the hat.

This brings up an interesting question: do you even know what my hat says? If everyone spends so much time looking at my head, do they even know what they're looking at?
