Catch my wave

[susandennis]

I swam faster and more efficiently this morning than I probably ever have ever. No clue why but it was fun. And even more fun to see it all documented on my app. Take that you skinny people with your tiny little swim suits and fancy goggles and piles of equipment on the edge of the pool. Ha!

I been rewarded over the past hour with sneezes and nose blowing. Gotta be allergies.

In between nose blowing, I'm wallowing in internetting. My electronic calendar reminded me that I made an appointment for my annual doctor visit on a day I had tickets to the afternoon baseball game. No need for that. So I got online and changed the appointment.

I realized this morning that I needed a haircut... again. I just had one 2.5 months ago! Anyway, I got a great guy last time. Good cut and no chatter. Plus, he had cute dogs. But, I couldn't quite remember his name.

Rudy's Barbershop (where I get my hair cut) has a new online system. I can log in and see when I had it cut and who did it! I love this. Found out it was Peter. Then went into appointments and saw that Peter didn't have an opening when I wanted it on Saturday but he did on Sunday. So... Me and Peter now have a date.

Note to me: get treats for his dogs.

There is no baseball today which, after the last two games, is a blessing. I have plenty of tv to watch. Plus, it's almost time to sign up for CBS All Access again so I can see Season 2 of The Good Wife sequel. I can never remember its name. The Good something. I just know that it is way good. And well worth a month of CBS All Access. Oh, wait. 1. It's The Good Fight and 2. The last episode of Season 2 doesn't drop til the end of May so I don't want to buy it until May. Ok. Now on Calendar.

My new yarn comes today. The tracking, until yesterday, showed delivery on Monday but this morning it says it's on the truck. Yeah!! Also some new shoes from Zappos. I ordered two pair that came yesterday. Usually I order more than one pair and send all but one or all back. But, I loved both yesterday. One, however, was a little big. So I ordered a smaller size plus some others to try. I have pre-decided that I can keep two pair total. The rest go back.

Zappos totally gets my love of send it fast for free. The yarn store has very reasonably priced shipping that's fast-ish. And they also have a free option that is slow as Christmas. I also appreciate having that kind of choice.

I had a nice, long, phone chat with my brother yesterday. It's fun to, once in a while, just get together and catch up.

Wow. Those posts that come over from Instagram are huge! It's shocking to go to my journal and see such a big picture of my face or part of my face and that old, old skin. I wonder, when you get to be 90+ are you shocked to learn you are no longer 70? I wonder but I really hope I don't live long enough to find out.

I got my hair cut at Rudy's too. I think my guy was Gabriel. He was nice and not chatty too. I like their Pioneer Square location.

I remember when you wrote about that. I had just had my second horrible experience at that Rudy's. I haven't been back since. At least I know they aren't consistently horrible. I was actually their very first off the street customer. My picture is on their wall!

OMG I wish I'd noticed that when I was there.

I ordered shoes from Zappos on March 28. I phoned this past Monday night to ask where they were? The nice gal apologized and put me briefly on hold. When she came back she told me she had them hunting for my shoes and she was zeroing out my order - if they found them there would be no charge.

My FREE Merrell hiking shoes arrived yesterday!!!! That's why we shop there. :)

There is no one who comes close to their customer service... that is the truth. If they don't have the shoes I want, I find other shoes to want that they do have. They are the best. And the nicest.

I'm a big fan of Zappos.
