Tomorrow And Eggs And Hair

It will snow in the north east tomorrow. This may come as a surprise to no one as it will snow over about a third of the country tomorrow. This wonderful, now weekly, storm will be followed swiftly on Wednesday with ice. Guaranteed to bring down trees and power lines.

Fun.

I was sorta planning on meeting my mom's boy friend's eldest daughter and her two kids on Wednesday, but it seems as if that might have to wait until...

In other news, I bought eggs today. This pretty much commits me to using them, like most perishable items do. You buy them, they have an expiration date, and you try an use them before then...unless you can freeze what ever it is you bought. Then it can be eaten at some indefinite point in the future. Which is great!

But eggs...you need to eat them. They can go bad. So this week will be an experiment in types of eggs. Fried eggs. Scrambled eggs. I might even be adventurous and try eggs in a basket!

To be sure, I will get more protein and be better for it, or so the thing I read online today said.

One thing I also need to start thinking about is my hair. Hair. I've been growing my beard for a month and it is lookin' pretty good. Definitely at the point where it isn't gross and doesn't sting me anymore. It isn't particularly scratchy. It has some shape to it and feels like a layer rather than a chia-pet.

But all good things must come to an end, but what end? Last year I grew my beard and hair for about a month while I wrote my thesis with the proclamation that I'd shave when my thesis was done. This year I have to adjust that thinking.

The due date is more amorphous this time. Unlike last year where there was a set date, this year there are more like hard targets for drafts. I don't really want to keep everything indefinitely, as fun as that would be. Mostly I am concerned about my hair, it's kinda long. But I don't wanna cut my hair and leave the beard! I want it to be an effect. A clear transition.

But when...
