sylvarJodi's flight got in a bit later than originally planned, and I forgot to stop at a fast-food joint on the way home, so I ended up going to sleep at around 2am. I woke at seven and left at eight, as usual, but tried driving no faster than 55. I ran into more traffic lights than usual, and was beginning to doubt the wisdom of driving slowly, but I got to work on time and felt less stressed. And surely it helps that I'm worrying less about the price of gas around here. I don't know how much gas I'm saving, but it does seem to be lasting longer.
When I get home tonight, I'm going to unpack all the food that was bagged up in Vikane-proof bags. I'm getting awfully sick of pizza, and I've only been eating it for three meals in a row. I'm not sure what I'll make first, but I did see some organic broccoli at Target for $1.49, which is actually cheaper than the other stuff (2 for $3). I know I'll have to have something ready for Jodi when she gets home around 9. (Photo: "NJ Pizza" by Robin Zebrowski.)
But first, I'm going to use a coupon for a $6.99 haircut. I'm getting shaggy. It won't be anything fancy -- in fact, it'll probably be the sort of thing my old barber could have done with sheep-shearers. I've been trying to shampoo less often, washing my hair with plain old surfactant-free tap water. It tends to make my hair easier to style. Hair is supposed to have some natural oils, after all; we spend a lot of money replacing them with oily goop. (Photo: "barberpole" by Paul Keleher.)
