I cut my own hair today

It’s amazing how good it feels to get out of the shower after a long run and decide, “I’m just gonna fucking cut it off.” You take a pair of scissors and just go at it.

After that first slice falls into the sink, you think, “Damn, these scissors are really dull…” Will that curtail the butchering? “No, it’s got to go.” It’s a done deal after you’ve experienced that first rush, the freedom of independence! Who needs a $40 haircut? NO MORE

It’s the small things in life right?

You look in the mirror and think, “Well…it’s nothing I would have paid for.” But you didn’t. You did that piece of work yourself. As that thought reverberates in your head, your body warms with satisfaction. You leave the bathroom with a smile on your face and a spring in your step.
