And on the first of the month too! I also didn’t forget to do The Thing either.
Mentally I’m indecisive on whether I’m overthinking stuff or not thinking enough, this despite the fact that every crisis has been averted and I should just go ahead with what I planned.
The month will start free from poverty brain, then there will be some choice paralysis related to giving things (souvenirs during the trip, maybe?), and by the end of the month there will be some clarity regarding what I couldn’t do.
On the whole it will be a month of opportunities galore and not all of them might be positive.

The weather is ass, but something I was thinking about when it wasn’t ass was basically “damn I should keep my sunglasses in my backpack”.
So with that in mind I went to get some new sunglasses! I actually have a pair of nice mirror shades I got like 5 years ago but I wanted to get a pair with different style just for fun.
At the shop (the same one I got said mirror shades) I found some neat ones with lightly tinted glasses so I put in the order for them to have the same formula as my regular glasses. One issue with the mirror shade ones is that if I go indoors it’s waaaay too dark, so a pair I can use outdoors to shield my eyes from the sun but not need to change them around every five minutes with my regular glasses sounded like a nice idea.
They’ll be ready in a week. Shockingly, my order from 5 years ago was still there. I thought their app was just the usual glorified webpage with points card, but it actually has my orders AND the formula which is hella useful. I have slightly different formula on each eye so I always forget which is which and by how much.
I wonder if the cute girl that got my order is the same one that also got my order five years ago…
Since I was in the mood to do that sort of thing, I also figured I should get my hair bleached, it’s been a while, I don’t even have bleached tips by now, the tips have broken off with time.
The salon I used to go to was an anime-themed one in Shinsaibashi and sadly they apparently closed…
…on January of last year. Holy fuck, it HAS been a minute. I’ll be damned.
Finding a new salon was tricky, I looked some online but the local ones are only for cuts and I kept getting recommended head spas instead.
I eventually found one and made an appointment for Sunday…
…and then, while out to get snacks I found a different local salon that’s closer by and actually does color.

That’s in brand for me, I guess. Now I know for next time at least.
