Even though we can get our hair cut again, I decided it do myself today. It could have been better, but also a lot worse.

Made two face masks out of bits of trouser leg, bootlaces and paperclips. Phoned a friend. (I am really not good at keeping in touch with people.)

After cutting my own hair for the first time last month, I don't think I'm going back to a hairdressers again. So I won't have to put up with them a) insulting me and b) not cutting it how I actually asked for. Every time.

You made a mask? Cool!

I really want to get back into making things instead of just buying everything. There's no creativity in just buying stuff.

I might also do the same things. Mostly because it will save a lot of time spend waiting for my turn to be cut. And not having to take along my own reading materials. Leaving me more time to spend in hopefully a more high quality way.

I cleaned the shower curtain. It was pretty vile- should have done this months ago. I used a WikiHow tip where you add half a cup of baking soda to the wash, plus some towels to help scrub it in the machine. Worked surprisingly well. The downside is, I now have a load of wet towels that smell of mouldy shower curtain.

I love "Cantus Articus"! (goes off to dig out that CD.)
