The big news around here is that Herm decided to take the big plunge, and go bald and beautiful, not 'Q-ball Bald', but more like 'Robert Duvall Bald'. When Jacob first saw it he grabbed Herman's hat and gave it to him, and said, "Put this on."
Practically every Thursday night, Jacob and Herm watch one of Jacob's movies after Jacob finishes with his bath. They sprawl out and enjoy. I suspect that sometimes Herm falls asleep. Herman told me today that Jacob is always deeply absorbed in the movie, but intermittently he will unexpectedly turn around, and pounce on Herman, hugging him tightly, and/or wrestling with him. After a few seconds of this he then goes immediately back to watching the movie.
Herman told me that the other night when Jacob turned around, instead of pouncing on him, he hugged him, and then reached up, and rubbed his bald head, and asked in a woeful voice, "Will it ever come back, Herman?" In an equally woeful voice, Herman said, "No, Jacob, it's gone for good."
Oh, my! So it would seem that Jacob has learned the sad, sad lesson of umbrellas in the wind, the innocence of youth, and male patterned baldness..........Once lost, farewell!
