Why bother?

March 21, 2023

I am back in Wilmington and headed to a hair appointment this morning I scheduled before I knew everything I know now.

And it just hit me.  I won’t have appointments with Ashley much longer.  I won’t need a color and cut every six weeks or so.  After roughly 7 years together, Ashley and I will be taking a break.

And that makes me sad.

It seems silly to be trying to plan things out with my hair right now.  To cut bangs or not to cut bangs.  To color or highlight.  It will all be meaningless so soon.

And yet it feels like something I can hold on to for right now while life is still normal.
