Arika cut my hair last night and did a fricken awesome job. If she quits teaching and goes back behind the chair, I highly reccomend you visit her. Anywho, I figured I would post a few preview pics.
Last night was a weird combo of emotions that led me to un-needed worrying. Figuring out my bills for the next few months was troubling, although Jon did suggest that he could loan me some cash to pay off the furniture in time – awesome guy. I was fretting over my lack of creative output lately. I was fretting over potentally usless things I do like podcasting and music (especially the timing of dropping $400 on an mbox the day my truck crapped out). Thinking about the economy and the potentially hard times coming wasn’t good either. A few run ins with increasingly desperate beggers and watching Dexter season 3 probably didn’t help either. On top of that, my lady friend is ill and I couldn’t get a hold of her. Dreams of her getting attacked (again) by vagrants while walking her dog popped into my head. So I worried…. and didn’t sleep well.
I figured out my bills today and… damn, I am broke.
Uhg. It is almost 11 and I am finally chilling for a minute before bed. Today was one of the more crappy days I have had in a while. It started off pretty good waking up at my new lady friend’s place inside of an awesome couch fort we made last night. I wasn’t planning on spending the night per se, but the couch fort was comfy and we were both sleepygusters. This morning I woke up to discover it was nearly 9:30 and we had a quick parting kiss and I ran home to start work.
We live in an imaginary world based on hype. The “most important” things seems manufactured. The generation that grew up on Mr. Rogers is now living in the land of make-believe and suffering the consequences. The economy is failing yet gas is the cheapest it has been in over a year. The dow hit a record single day jump after freefalling the last few days. Banks are using imaginary money. People are buying imaginary things using plastic promises. Credit scores and terrorist watch lists are more important than criminal histories.
I had some down time at work and checking out some winter duds. I sorta want a new winter coat like the Russian Military trenchcoat I wore for 4 winters.
