July 4, 20242 yr Given We decided to By heading over to the Point Reyes National Seashore and enjoying the cooler temperatures, before they are swarmed on the 4th and completing my Point Reyes Visitors cliched photographs, bingo card
July 5, 20242 yr Spent the day in Castle Rock Park. Possibly saw evidence of the original Ohlone people or aliens or maybe local kids who had seen too many A24 films. Hung out with some down on their luck trucker who waxed poetically (or at least consistently) about their hatred of bugs, the heat, and people taking their photograph. Finally caught the fireworks.
July 7, 20242 yr Went to the world premiere of the play Chaplin and Keaton on the Set of Limelight. Admired much of its depth, while also being irritated (an increasingly common feeling) by what's sacrificed in messy greatness for a more crafted output - equal number of lines, actors time, pivotal scenes properly spaced, traditional act structure, etc. all to serve a balanced, acceptable story. That didn’t start here though and still greatly enjoyed the dialog on comedy's purpose, the two comedian's differences, etc. Edited July 7, 20242 yr by blessingx

July 8, 20242 yr I must admit Dusty, I don't know why he'd want to see pics of bald spots either. But best to give the G-man what he wants so...

July 9, 20242 yr I finished inputting into a spreadsheet all of the shows that Claire and I have kept ticket stubs for. She started the project years ago and logged over 300 shows from her journals, ticket stubs and scrap books. Now that I have finished all paper tickets we still have and added some that I have in memory but not on paper, the total is over 600 concerts, mostly rock (broadly defined) and jazz with a mix of symphony, bluegrass, rap, country, etc. There is a small percentage that we went to separately and I am not done scraping my memory and my friends' memories, but the bulk is now recorded. We're wondering if we will hit 1000 shows before we slip this mortal coil. Actually, that reminds me that I think I saw that band and definitely saw Dead Can Dance...

July 9, 20242 yr I'm a bush baby too. Shaving down there is not natural to me. So, I do it for altruistic reasons. I'm such a good person.

He would go to me and others with receding hairlines and warn us "...your follicles are CHOKING, pal....!" 😄 I am now almost completely bald, but I gave him some humorous grief that his receding hairline up his forehead went faster than mine. Only difference is now he has more (and darker) hair on his sides and back then me. But I enjoy this....I use a trimmer to shave what little is left maybe every 2-3 weeks, no cost to get a haircut anymore.
July 11, 20241 yr My oldest Brother started balding in high school. The middle Brother in his late 20s. Needless to say I was constantly worrying about starting to lose my hair. Luckily for me I didn't do any thinning until after 50. Now I don't really care.

And showering takes a fraction as long, and drying off after a shower takes a fraction as long...but what am I supposed to do with this gargantuan bottle of shampoo? I'm only supposed to use a nickel-sized dollop every time... Oh, and hats, I get to start wearing hats again. What do you think? https://www.etsy.com/market/black_leather_hat
