Work less than good. Rest of life improving.

I've been grumpy about work lately, and early this week (late last week? sometime) I made a freaking brilliant observation: if I can't solve THAT problem, maybe I can solve OTHER THINGS in the meantime.

So last weekend I made jelly and I made brownies; I called a friend I hadn't seen in months; I made progress on organizing my photos from the recent trip; I did some badly-needed pruning in the flowerboxes outside my house; I called the doctor and got started on the Injections of Death; I did a couple of errands and cleaned up the living room significantly; I set up my pretty Northern Lights picture in the office.

I'm still considering getting my hair cut short (maybe I'm ready to, maybe not) and mulling over whether to drop my car off for repairs or search for a new(er) one. In another week or two I might be able to start running again. Maybe I could hike even sooner than that.

Solve what I can. It's a useful idea.

Wow! Cool hair! I can only get to just past my shoulders/mid-back before I get headaches from the weight.

Oh wow. You must have gorgeous thick luxurious hair. Mine's very thin (and very fine, too, which sadly means it takes most of a day to dry). I have this theory that "there is hair that is meant to be grown long, and hair that is not". Mine is not, sadly. But I do it anyway 'cause I'm too lazy and cheap for haircuts.

I have thick but fine hair if that makes sense. Mine takes forver to dry, too. That's why I cut it last year. I was swimming and it was a pain to take an hour to blow dry it. I am such a lazy sot. I am not a big fan of getting my hair cut either. I think it sucks that it's cheaper for guys. But I guess theirs is easier. Bleah.

I'm lazy too. I don't blow dry it, but it's also a pain to wait for it to dry on its own... can't win! :)
