Random memory resurfaced of being in the barber’s chair. I was 30 years old, Linda had been cutting my hair since I was 3.

After the cut for the first time ever, she ran the trimmers over the backs of my ears. That had never happened before.

I immediately realized in that moment I’m old and I now have old man hair on my ears

    Whenever I walk past a Chinese takeout place and I can smell what’s cooking, I’m instantly reminded of being a little girl and walking with my dad to the local Chinese takeout place in the evening after he’d returned home from work. I remember being mildly annoyed with him because he’d walk so fast and I had such little legs back then I could barely keep up! Funny how a smell can bring back nostalgic memories, eh? 😃
