Our family got hair cuts yesterday. I took Mark to my favorite salon for some hair pampering. We both loved our scalp massages. Besides I was looking hippie-ish with my shaggy hair.
Daisy got a summer shave. She’s now short-haired like my Tita Sylvia’s dogs, Jack and Jill. This should help her cope with the much hyped-Kansas weather: hot and humid temps. She should be OK - she’s a Topeka native afterall.
For some reason, folks seem to enjoy talking ominously about how hot summer gets in this part of the Bible Belt. I simply roll my eyes and hold my tounge. Hot weather is not a bid deal for me - Vegas, Chicago, Mexico, the Philippines and other places outside of the Sunflower State. It get’s old trying to explain to people what I can handle. Besides, I suspect they enjoy repeating themselves and trying to sound more “in-the-know” than the little Asian gal from the West Coast.
So be it.
We caught a show in Lawrence last night. I’m working on another review for lawrence.com. Basically I’m researching the bands and listening to their music over and over again. It was a fun night - out on the bar’s patio. I should get back to work.
I’m also heading back to the station tonight. I’m covering for the weekend producer so she could enjoy her birthday weekend. In return, she’s covering one of my Friday shifts so I could take another trip back to the Bay Area.
I’m tired and I don’t think I have enough sleep…but I think it’s worth it. It’s worth putting my worn-out self through a sixth day of work when it means I can go home next month.
