October 22

I don't know where my memory is but I think it's missing! I've never had a happy time at a barber shop in my life so what made me type that yesterday. Matter of fact getting a haircut is one of my three hated needs. The other two are left over from my working days and I'm getting their aggravation reduced a little more every day. One of them was the act of filling the car with gas which I had to do almost everyday and the other was, I hated to take the time to....well, to do what a lot of folks do every morning, sit on the throne. The not taking time for that one sure cost me a lot of pain over the years.

I go to the barber shop to get a hair cut! I don't go there for lengthy talks about every subject under the sun and I hate it when it happens. It usually involves the barber who stops cutting hair to talk thereby extending my wait period. You know it doesn't take long to read everything that is interesting in the Kansas City Star and who wants to read eight month old magazines? Today the postman came in talking about the ball game, he took at least ten minutes away from the hair cutting. The sports world doesn't know how many of the worlds greatest coaches are just wasting away in barber shops. I tried not to listen but what I did hear convinced me that everyone in the conversation could do a hell of a lot better job than any of the managers/coaches in the major leages today.

For the talk, getting a haircut and bowling is a comparable thing but I do believe the barber shop is the largest pain!

Today is Columbia day. Going to Columbia for a couple of doctor appointments. The first one is a regular thing th the M.D. and the other is to have a skin tag removed. After that a stop at the CPAP machine place for a different mask, a quick stop at Sam's Club then home.
