Cheap Cuts and Crabs

Today I took the 6 train to China for a haircut. Ok, Chinatown, but on the tiny side street of Prell in Manhattan you really feel like you’ve left the country. I found the barber shop on yelp (an online rating website) while searching for cheap cuts and it had really great reviews. No offense to our friend Ashley who’s local and does an awesome job, but I just can’t afford the $30 trim every month. :) Anyway, my cut came out well enough, especially for $7. Ha. The walk was annoying today because of the cold, rainy weather but would usually be a fun area to visit. This pic is of crabs that were in front of one of the big fish markets, some of them alive and trying to jump out of the barrels!


By the time I got home my jeans were soaked thanks to the side-ways rain so our apartment, which usually has us boiling, felt warm and cozy. Once I was dry and Pup had received a little attention, my intent was to take yoga but after 20 minutes of waiting the 7 never showed. At this point I decided to give up the fight against the weather by staying in, brewing some tea, and updating my Chill Radio station on Pandora.

After work yesterday I rushed downtown to my interview for Animal Care and Control. They said they could use my help which was great, I got an AC&C t-shirt and leash, and headed home. Last night Jen and I watched another Hitchcock film, Birds! To me it was more funny than creepy and I kept wondering why no one in that town had a gun. Tonight and Saturday night I’ll be at the restaurant. It was a VERY slow week, I’m guessing because of the chilly weather, so I have some catching up to do.
