Tuesday
Today was pretty productive. And that’s always something to feel good about.

I bumped my head the other day getting out of the car in Park City. It could happen to anyone. However, at the time, my sunglasses were perched atop my head. And, as I shave my head on a daily basis, rather than just “bumping” my head, I managed to carve an inch-and-a-half long trench into it. If I only had super-miniature X-Wing and TIE Fighters… Actually, it’s not that bad. It’s nowhere near as bad as had me thinking that it was when he saw it (shortly after it happened). Not even close. From his description, I was thinking “Grand Canyon.” When I was able to get a look at it, it was more like “little scratch.” It just itches from time to time. And it’s a wee bit sensitive when I’m shaving. Go figure.
