last time i got a haircut the barber lady was quite cute and chatty and in the middle of the haircut, this obnoxious song came on the radio over the PA whose lyrics were quite literally i’m falling in love with a stranger repeated 50 times, crystal clear, little instrumental backing even. and of course she could feel my breathing get quicker, she’s standing one foot from me and actively working on my hair. so that wasn’t awkward at all. and i am already a very quiet person who feels shame easily so it wasn’t great. i do love having my hair long however

This was a really sweet story 🙂
Just wanted to say that doing what you did, putting yourself out there and sticking around even when it wasn’t girls night, was incredibly courageous. Props to you for taking the risk, and it seemed to work out great for you.
Also, props to the other people who were so kind to you on the guys night.
I had this random surprise meeting that turned out to be with all of the managers. It was like the scene from Office Space where they’re asking what it is you do around here. Because they seemed nervous and uncomfortable it was extra awkward, and because it was a surprise and I do a lot of different things, I really wasn’t prepared to dig through it all with an audience of managers in an organized or coherent way. All around it was a ridiculous experience that should have been an email instead of a very unpleasant meeting.
Someone in a gathering called for a moment of silence for the victims of the Canadian wildfires, and suddenly, in the silence, all people can hear is the Little Inferno theme song quietly playing on my closed ipad.
She was probably as anxious and playing it cool.
