people are kind + loooong chatting

At time of writing I was out (at time of posting I am not), but I'm writing this note just because I love the kindness of this world.

I just got my hair done and it pretty much looks the same. I needed a wash and fresh retwist and I am so grateful my stylist did not twist with the force of god on my hair. Getting locs has easily been the best decision of my life. I like how I looked with other styles like braids and blow outs but I think during this stage of my life, worrying about things like that gives me more to worry about than what I care to. I'd rather invest in my nails and skin care anyway, doing my hair now is the easiest thing in the world plus my head isn't going to hurt like hell for the next 2 days because of the tension. That or worrying if I'm going to sweat out my hair if I exercise.

My stylist even complimented me on how I've been keeping up with my freeforms. It had been a...certain amount of time since I washed them, let's just say that. She told me my hair didn't stink at all which I know was true because my brother smelt my hair the night before and he didn't say "EEEEUUUGH BRUH YO HAIR STANK" so suffice it to say, I'm doing phenomenal. She even told me my hair smelled good so LOL. There was a little bit of dandruff, which is to be expected but my hair lathered up on the second wash which she was happily surprised at. I think it's because a lot of males with locs of any kind allow their locs to become grotesque spindles of mildew mongering mats of hair. Which at that point, what did you get the locs for if you are not going to take care of them? You're a man, you have the luxury of having really short hair and no one cares or accuses you of being gay.

We had a lovely conversation together about health which is my JAM (though I am not a certified professional and everything you read about my health journey and the tips I give here are just what I write to remind myself and keep track of progress. I'm not here to influence you even though I could xoxo) and she basically consulted me about interior design for her workspace which I would be more than happy to help her with. 

After an appointment that flew with catching up and laughing together, I decided to take a real stroll around my nook of the woods. Which just means I got chipotle for lunch and I went to the library afterwards. I debated going inside the teen zone to play some vidya but I decided not to because none of my friends from high school would have been there so what would I look like styling on a bunch of 15 year olds in Smash Ultimate? I may be able to legally drink but my face screams 9th grade. It's hilarious every time I go out my mother gets offended on my behalf that I am not carded more often and says no one is doing their job right.

Besides that I picked up a book on tarot, and it looked and read like exactly what you would imagine a modern day tarot book to look like. It was getting real intense energetically in the library after reading this thing. I'll leave it at that.

So after that I sat outside a Starbucks and was wondering where my dad was to pick me up. I hoped he wasn't mad at me for walking across the world instead of waiting on him outside the salon but I realized I never sent the message to him in the first place. It all ends up working out since after walking around, I come across the bane of my existence.

A joint with the most back widening, ass dimpling, tooth rotting desserts in town. To be fair to myself for being a diet cheat, I haven't been there in about a year and some change. N-not that I've been keeping track or anything. Anyway, I'm deciding on which cupcake to get and realize there is a flavor my brother would really like, so I got that one for him too. I ordered them online in a roundabout way since I didn't have my card on me. I bought 2 chocolate cupcakes online and since they are all the same price, I'd switch out the flavor with the clerk. It ended up working out big time because they were cheaper on the website anyway. But then, the really kind lady picked up two chocolate cupcakes before I could let her know I wanted two different ones and ended up giving me those two plus the ones I picked out. So in total 4 cupcakes; the whole family is getting cupcakes tonight! I'm the devil but they know they want some cupcakes hehe.

Of course on the ride home, I am reminded. I have peace knowing wherever I go, I am appreciated. Anyway, I learned the aurora borealis is going to be visible all the way in Florida and I can't wait to see it. This trip is gonna be fun and I think I'm looking super adorable muhehehe.
