And I can see again

Oh, it feels good to get a hair cut.  Stupid people who were mad about Covid restrictions.  Get a flowbee.  My mom has used one for years.  I am ok with going to a professional or a student.  

It felt so nice to get my scalp massaged.  I had a voicemail this morning that my student had called in and they giving me an advanced student for $15.  I was ok with that.  I remembered to donate to her education fund.  I think I had this person before but I thought I don't remember you.  Then when she told me how many times she's changed her hair color, I thought well that might explain my crummy memory.  I did remember at the end.  Nice woman.

I got my walk in.  Saved on parking.  Depending on how I schedule and the weather, I may keep this up.  That was really a life saving moneywise.  I had stopped at Metro Market in downtown for ShopKicking purposes.  The liquor department at my grocery store is locked up.  They locked up the side door too.  I wasn't shopping for liquor but the entrance was handy if I was walking back from Dollar Tree.  

Anyway, I looked for the items on my list and I found 1 out of 4 and as I scanned the bar code, their security person came over and asked me if I needed help.  I'm going to cut to the chase. He thought I was going to shoplift or up to something bad. I held up my phone and I said, I'm good.  I'm using ShopKick on my phone.  He walked away after he told me to have a nice day. I noticed that they had a direct exit in line with the liquor department which I used promptly.  Either lock up the liquor or don't put it in direct line of an exit.

I should have told him I'm more likely to shoplift a Crunch bar than a bottle of Hennessy.  Jackass.  

The sweetest thing that happened today was seeing that my check got deposited.  I am going to have a rough few months.  It'll be ok.  I thought today warranted a treat moment.  I got tacos from Taco John and my mom was craving Burger King.  They're so slow at Burger King in my neighborhood that I ate my two tacos. I don't need sauce.  I'm good.  It just felt good to eat those tacos.

I can see again.  I asked for two inches off the back. I won't go again for 2 months so it's ok if it grows.  It was the hair falling in the face that was too much the last couple of months. I won't go to get the grays covered until early November. I don't care if my grey puts the letter Z on the side of my hair, I'm so happy to have my hair cut. 

I finished Hunter Biden's book.  I didn't turn into a puddle of tears. I think the book came out in 2022, or 2021?  It ended with the election and the feeling that he wouldn't be subjected to more bashing from Donald Trump.  That made me feel bad.  He has been villainized so badly.  I would love for Joe to pardon him.  If not, maybe Kamala will if she can get in.  We're all going to jail if Trump gets in.

The Dark Things

I sometimes wonder about this when I'm in a brooding mood about how I got treated at a low time in my life.  Or lowest. Would people have been relieved if I just died?   Really.  I have thought the answer was yes.  I'm not talking about my family. I am talking about those who made their discomfort known to me.   They could have had some fake ceremony and a moment of silence.  There wouldn't have been a funeral so they could have forgotten about that part.  They would have excelled at pretending to care about my life if I wasn't here. Then, I had to go do something stupid and survive.  How do we deal with that?  My mentor even mentioned to me, well, you know, none of us have dealt with someone being sick.  Oh, should I get a fucking manual for that?  Excuse the F bomb but that was warranted. When I got my schedule for radiation therapy, I had wanted to talk to my manager about it and find out if it was ok.  I had gotte...

Too Peopley

I sat in a zoom meeting when my sound was out and I noticed one of the other assistants had a T-shirt on that said It's Too Peopley outside. I wanted to ask her where she got it.  Ironically I guessed correctly to one of her responses to the questionnaire we got that asked what do you hope to do someday and she answered retire.  I go off vibes at times and that one worked.  I understood how she felt because yeah.  I feel like that. I don't dislike people.  Crowds make me anxious.  I like hitting the stores first thing in the morning because I got room.  I got space.  I can look at stuff without people hitting me with their damn carts.  Anytime I've gone later in the day on a weekend to go do my walk, I wonder where did all these people come from?  There's something peaceful when it's not that many people around. I like seeing people walking their dogs and saying hello.  When it's later in the day, it doesn't seem so enjoyable. I'm l...

Blue Evening

We took a drive to see a place in Bay View. I was kind of familiar with the address, but I wasn't sure. I found it.  It was not great. According to my Ring alerts, it's near an area with crime.  It was in our price range. I just can't seem to shake this funk I'm in.
