$12 haircut

For whatever reason, I thought about getting a haircut today, though the morning was supposed to be about re-loading my bluebird card to get a cheap dvd off ebay.
One step leading to another: had to shave for first time in a week, to look half-way decent for bicyling, though I long ago realized that my shaving ordeal made me feel better.  Shaved, bike ride (at late 11 in morning!), walmart, card re-load...and two $1 items from McDonalds!
Home to right away get a haircut---$12; price seems to have gone down.  Maybe that's why the place seemed busy, though a latino? operated place in redneck town.  Getting my grungy long hair sheared off like a sheep also helping me feel grr-eat?!
Then to dark and claustrophic 2nd hand store on main drag, after seeing their ad on craigslist; bought a used dvd there.  And nearby 5 & 10 to accidently come across another cheap dvd.
Total banality, but a major day for semi?reclusive, broke, depressed, me.  And able to walk my hometown cause  the druggies/drunks were finally chased off main street where they loitered for years.
So, this is what "normal" should feel like...?  Maybe kinda worried that "Charley" me will revert back to the olde Cliff Robertson I usually am.

Yes! Fixing onsself up definitely makes your day betterr no matter what the problem is! I need to color my hair REALLY badly! Maybe you will inspire me to stop putting it off.

So you had a pretty good day! Why question it? Just enjoy!

moving outside our comfort zone, holding a hand, we take baby steps to \'feel tiny bit better\'.

You sound really nice, and there are so many lonely woman that would like a male friend. Now that you have cleaned yourself up, why don\'t you find a singles group and I\'m sure you\'ll be snatched up.
