After a really incredibly shitty day with no normality or goodness at all, my evening managed not to suck out loud and in fact to turn out some good moments. I went to get my haircut and was pretty determined to get rid of a lot of length, but still being unsure exactly what I wanted to do. Without knowing my emotional state, the woman who cut my hair was still concerned about whether I could handle losing so much hair (it really was a LOT). I continued to insist the whole way through that I wanted and needed this, needed a dramatic change. And I got it!
I was pretty excited about it and extremely pleased with the results. And then plans worked out so that I can come to Boone and have the friend time I so desperately need right now! Let's really make this count, guys. I'm so incredibly excited about seeing you all.
So despite the constant horrible feeling that persists in the back of my mind, I can manage to find some pleasantness and to have some good times. I am determined to keep that up and to remember that.
Thank you all so much for your love and your kind words. You all mean more to me than you know.
