Gnarly Roots

Rewards come to those who wait

I managed to find my way to a downtown hair salon. I am contemplating changing my look more significantly but I am also kind of just wanting to focus on getting more hair care than anything. Color is necessary, care is sort of optional at this point so, I feel the luxury comes from someone else doing that for me.. I think I should just stick with the usual until I am for certain that I want to do something more bold like a grey-pink or something of that sort. I have always wanted more of a sleek look though the top of my head has always been a bit flat, so I usually need some sort of volume there to balance out my face.

I sort of bought Olaplex Shampoo and Conditioner Set tentatively for now but I am open to buying one of those gift sets in the picture. Especially if they're looking to sell their stuff via Amazon~

Since all my stuff is in boxes right now, it is hella chaotic right now and I am having to go back and forth from town to town to try and get everything figured out.

I quite like this color though my roots are no longer dark, I guess it would just be a continuation of that end color as much as possible.

Style-wise I am into soft waves and such, that's more of what I am after, but I am up for anything mid length.

I can't even work on my Youtube channel right now because my boom arm is in storage and my desk is in my mom's garage. I was thinking of trying to find some portable boom arm on Amazon, but there's kind of perfect like small ones on Temu. I am just trying to think of how to make it portable so I can sort of work from where ever. I really like my Elgato Wave 3

It has served me pretty well, and the sound editor it comes with is pretty useful for streaming. The interface is also pretty intuitive and it is sort of automatically compatible with any stream deck by Elgato products

I have a Zoom meeting with someone important the next day after my appointment so, it would be nice if I looked more presentable for that.

I made my way to Blackrock. I don't think my grandma was too bad but I just didn't want to be there, or like the one errand I needed to do outside of the house sort of encouraged me to get out of the house

The PO Box thing really bummed me out. I need to do a lot more registration shit now. I am trying to be faithful to my tasks but it is like each task has like 4 more subtasks to it.

I am making headway though, that is all that matters really. I am looking at some of my favorite artists and I just am annoyed I can't go see them live. Rentrer En Soi already disbanded so that will never happen. I am sort of keeping a look out for Jin Akanishi.

Ah, I almost have all the information I need, I just don't know where my dad was born. Luckily I remember my parents birth information as far as the dates go, but I am not 100% on the locations. It makes it kind of awkward to ask. Perhaps this information is on my birth certificate?

According to Google, that seems to be the case.

*sigh* I guess I have to go back to complete my task. What a bummer. I should see if there is anything else I can do while I am out and about.
