Materialistic
Feb. 18th, 2021 10:43 pmThis week was pretty nice because it was short.
As has become my habit around the middle of the month, I took an extra day off. Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday. Mine, all mine! MUAHAHA.
Literally nothing of interest happened at work whatsoever.
Sarah, my captionist whose husband died of cancer, is moving to New Hampshire to get a fresh start.
She has friends there who have offered to let her stay with them until she becomes grounded again.
What amazing people!
I helped by shuttling Sarah up to CapTel to return her work-from-home equipment. I'd return it myself but I'm not allowed, liability blah blah, which is understandable. But she doesn't have a car and she lives about an hour away, like me. It was only an extra 20 minutes out of my day to swing by and help her out.
It felt weird, though, to watch her walk away to catch a bus after dropping her stuff off. She's a good person going through too much, and I wish we could have been true friends. See you down the road, Sarah.
On the way to and from work this week, I picked up gardening equipment. Perlite, vermiculite, and lightweight potting soil since my goal this year is to get actual carrots and I sense they're not growing well partly due to compacted soil. 6-4-6 fertilizer for my Meyer lemon. 8-10-10 fertilizer for a SUPER SECRET plant I'm getting so DON'T TELL MY BOYFRIEND.
I finally got a haircut because I couldn't stand my ratty hair any more. I went to a chain place, but was surprised at what a good job they did. So here is a selfie. I'm trying to be more open to pictures of myself, but it's hard. I hate how I look. Sometimes, though, someone cuts your hair nicely and makes you look like you could belong to human society. And when that happens you should acknowledge it.
