Covid-19 Days — 441

I believe the last time I got my hair cut was perhaps a week before the state shutdown because of the rona last year. So even though I am balding, I was sporting some long hair at the end of these tumultuous times. Long hair was great and glorious running my fingers through it was the best.

Today I got my first hair cut in 14 months. I just asked for the barber to clean it up. She did and showed me. It was ugly. I wasn’t liking it. So I told her to cut it a bit more. She cut at least two inches off. Now I can’t put my hair into a ponytail. I miss running my fingers through the long hair.

The haircut looks good. Yet even as I sat in the chair, I wondered how long will it take to grow back.

Bald on the top, but long in the back. I was sporting an ugly rona mullet. I want to get that back…

So does it seem like we are exiting from the problems of this pandemic? The government has relaxed rules for those who have been fully vaccinated. Is it the right time? Are we ready for this? Am I?

I have mixed feelings. I don’t want to leave the house. I especially don’t want to leave the house and see everyone without a mask. We all shall be going around and interacting with people after one year. I don’t like it. I am also not wanting to go back to work, but that is for personal reasons.

I guess we’ll have to live it as we live it.

Well, it seems like every few months we’ll put another Nogizaka46 item up. Today is no different. Link to a special site for their upcoming, 27th Single 「ごめんねFingers crossed」(Gomen ne Fingers Crossed).

While I am not too happy with the lineup — the center is Endou Sakura, it still looks to be a great music video. Hopefully, it will be a narrative type. Maybe it is Nogi’s fast & furious version!

Covid-19 Days – 364

It went by so fast, and yet it felt like nine times more days than that. Was it just a year ago that it came all crashing to a halt? Was it just a year ago that we finally knew that the rona was something to be wary about? Was it really that long ago that dumb, morally corrupt people were in charge of fighting it? People who don’t give a hoot about other people. Bury our dead in their Florida resorts. It really was. Just a year ago.

Still. We are not out of it just yet.

Yesterday, President Biden had a speech upon which he wants to really get the US over the hump by the 4th of July. If we all can put our effort to getting the vaccine and to keep being vigilant, maybe we can do it.

It’s a longshot.
