Hello, world. It’s Tuesday morning, and I’ve emerged from the bed.
We spent yesterday doing nothing. I played Just Dance in the morning, subjecting Shawshank to all of my favorites, especially “Kulikitaka“. After I finished, I grabbed all the stuff to seal some locs and set up in the kitchen. This time around, I used the clothes iron rather than my hair straightener. I resealed some of the locs I’d been fucking with on Saturday and Sunday. In the end, I ended up tossing half of them, as I’d candled them and really didn’t like how they’d turned out.
We didn’t have any plans for the day, and neither of us had anything we wanted to really accomplish. Shawshank had to study for a certification he’s testing for this week. I ended up chilling on the living room floor for most of the afternoon and evening, matting up more locs to replace the ones I tossed. Like the sealing, I’ve tweaked my process a little. Previously, I’d been holding the hair with my feet, because I’m a fucking weirdo. Instead, I switched to holding it with one of my kettlebells. This method worked out a lot better, and gave me a much more consistent, tight hair-clot. I ratted up a bunch of white, as well as more light blue to replace those I threw out.
So far, it looks pretty damned cloudy out there, probably the remains of the thunderstorms in the area overnight. The forecast claims things will clear up later today. I’m planning to dance, take some pics, and seal some locs.
