I cooked today

5:57pm, pacific standard time, apartment in Aliso Viejo, California, USA, Sunday evening, December 11, 2022. A rare occurrence happened this morning; I cooked. Normally, I avoid anything other than frozen dinners and take-out but, my daughters mom had some meal prep packages in the fridge and I was bored. So I made lentil soup, butternut-sage lasagna and a pear/walnut salad. Afterwards, I took a shower and drove to Laguna Niguel for a haircut. This evening it is just me and my daughter in the apartment. Her mom left for Los Angeles. She has an early morning court hearing regarding a work issue. Tomorrow, I plan to take my daughter to school and work remotely but, I suspect she has plans to stay home as well. She spent a lot of time with friends this weekend and is feeling rundown.

Buzz cut

6:25pm, pacific standard time, apartment in Chandler, Arizona, USA, Monday evening, July 11, 2022. Bought clippers this morning and gave myself a haircut. Actually, I gave myself a buzz cut. I didn’t have much choice; the front part of my scalp has been thinning lately and nothing I did looked good. It still doesn’t look very good but, at least it is better than it was. I guess I can’t complain, I had most of my hair up until age 50. Getting old is not very fun.

Not much going on, I got a haircut

6:02am, apartment in Chandler, Arizona, Monday morning, March 21, 2022. The drive to Arizona yesterday was exhausting. I left Orange County a quarter after eleven, stopped for gas and a quick haircut (the first in over two years, my daughters mom has been cutting my hair since March of 2020), then was on the road by noon. I noticed yesterday morning the East bound interstate was closed for construction around Glendale (Arizona) so I factored in extra drive time. However, about sixty miles from Phoenix, GPS started adding large chunks of time. Apparently, in addition to construction, a major accident was backing traffic up significantly. The result was a long, slow, detour through crowded industrial areas on the west side of Phoenix. By the time I walked in the door of the apartment at 6:30pm I was tired and cranky. I let everyone know I arrived safely before eating dinner and going to bed. Now it is time to get ready for another week of work.
