So, today is the first day waking up with a shaved head. It was awesome not waking up to a mouth full of hair or a tangled rats nest. I can see myself growing to like super short hair, if just for the efficiency and convenience of it.
As I move back into my daily routines I am going to start writing in the morning while drinking coffee and eating breakfast. It’s a nice warm up to the day. Sort of like getting my gears going.
I slept pretty well for the most part. Scarlet knocked something over in the bathroom last night, which scared the daylights out of me, but I was able to get over the adrenaline eventually.
I’m not really sure what I’m going to be doing today other than going into work at 5.
Today is Sir’s birthday, but I do not think reaching out to him would be a good idea. I’m damned if I do, damned if I don’t. I think the better option is to leave things as they are. I know this will be driving a wedge further between us, but I don’t think we are ready to try bridging the gap.
With his mentality, I do not know if we will ever be able to. Unless he changes he will always hold and harbor resentment for me which will poison anything we try to have, friendship or otherwise. It is disheartening, but I knew that about his personality from very early on.
I wish there was a way to show him I cared, and that I still do.
One of my co-workers is going through something similar with her wife. They are separating and she doesn’t know if they will be able to repair the damage and get back together.
It’s a bit of a sad way to start the morning, reminiscing and helping others through their own heartache. Tis the season I suppose.
As far as the outlook for the rest of the day, I am going to try to get the last remaining items from the storage unit into the apartment so I can wash my hands of one more tie. I still have to figure the phone out, which I suppose I can add that to my to do list.
I want to call my mom and see about getting on her plan. Though it might be better to see if I can switch my number back to Metro. It was only $50 bucks a month, and it will be a bill that I can take care of on my own, rather than having to pay my mom.
We will see how it works out.
I need to cook lunches for the week, but aside from that there isn’t a lot on my agenda for this morning. Just easing back into life.
I would like to go to the gym before work. I picked up the YMCA schedules so I can plan out my workout times.
This week is going to be tight money wise. Jarrett still hasn’t gotten back to me about paying the power and Internet bills. That is another source of stress that I want to be done with. I’m super close be being done with the American Express card, which will cut the tie I have with Warren #2.
I’m close to being 100% on my own again. That will be my current goal. Cutting ties, I think. Getting back to my roots. MY roots, not the tangled roots of others. No more ties.
Guess I should go so I can start working on that.
