I have considerably long hair and I don't care. I'm a male so it's not the norm I don't think.
I can appreciate the non conformity.  I respect that.  Is there any specific reason that you don't cut it?
Well I just don't like putting in the time to manage it and also I'm not socially conformed to do so.
Sounds good.  Are you doing anything fun today for the 4th of July?
I'm just hanging out enjoying the weather, don't really like fireworks much. I might go out for dinner, what about you?
That sounds like fun.  Pretty much the same.  No plans set in stone yet.  Hoping to get some fishing in.  Do you ever go fishing?  That's a hobby I just picked up this summer..
I'd like to go fishing more but none of my friends are interested. I'm also interested in storytelling, music, drama, and dance for entertainment.
That's really cool that you are into arts.  I'm big into music and dance myself.  I've been producing music for the past 12 years or so and love it!  Do you play any instruments?
I play electric and acoustic guitar but I'd like to learn to play more piano or keyboard one day. I love guitars though!
Rock on.  I play keyboard and piano.  It's nice being able to compose things on your computer now.  Do you write your own music?
