| ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- i'm never smart about these things Today was the last day of my mother's first round of radiation and her hair is finally starting to fall out, just like they said it would. My brother A. took her to get her wig today and sent me and S. a picture. It's a reasonable facsimile of her hair but the color is off--too sunshiny and perky, not soft and pale. It's also too coifed and both of these things almost made me cry. But she's also smiling in the picture and looks so pretty so I took a deep breath and texted back a heart symbol. Because it's just fucking hair. C. went to SF tonight for a show with some friends and I'm grateful to have the house to myself. Posted up here on the couch with some Kevin Morby and my cat snuggled next to me. If I'm smart I'll go to bed on time. I'm never smart about these things. 7:56 pm - 06.03.19
