the dentist, my model gig, new makeup
yesterday i was grateful for a clean bill of dental health...
today i am looking forward to working with my cemetery colleagues...
day 5 of journal blogging... i think this might well settle in as a routine workflow... also enjoying the higher review rate of posting every day... at least that is what i assume it is...
annoying visit to the dentist yesterday... when i walked in they announced that they were no longer in network with our insurance provider... out of network benefits are maybe 20-30%... in network benefits were substantially better... when i asked them for a list of 2 or 3 insurance companies they liked, were in network with, they wouldn't tell me... it's complicated they said... f-u i thought to myself... then they offered me a brochure on their vip membership plan... which on quick inspection was in and of itself going to cost me what my charges would be without the vip plan... say f-ing what?... the strategy may be to have insurance for big stuff only and go with their vip plan for general maintenance?... it was super irritating...
i did my model shoot with burkelman yesterday morning... i had fun but felt a little uptight... stiff... one of my women friends suggested to have a shot or two of something before going in next time... don't know if there will be a next time... but if there is...
what they had me try on was fun... there was a jacket especially that i think i want to get... floral print... earthy brown linen fabric... really nice... i will get store credit as payment for my gig... i know what i will spend it on... stay tuned for photos from the shoot!...
i got a shipment of makeup from clarins yesterday... a new lipstick, some bronzing powder and some shimmery copper eye shadow... i tried them out this morning... may have been a little heavy handed with the bronzing powder but otherwise i love my new makeup... will have to practice more to refine my technique... i am a total newbie at this... i asked my wife if i had overdone it... she said she didn't think so... that i had to ask her was a good sign...
it is midday now... i was unable to complete this post this morning because i had to run home to meet with the landscape design company about further work in our back yard... it turns out, if i don't get it done in the morning, at the coffee shop, i really struggle to do it... i get sleepy and my brain just doesn't want to compose... i have to sort out the situation with my coffee friends... the distraction gets in the way, but i want to be open to having friends...
i will end it here because i am not inspired today... at this hour...
