inMy chair hit 10,000 haircuts and it got me thinking about old school versus new school pricing
Used to think a low price was the only way to build a client base. Then I saw a guy with my same years in the game charging almost double and his book was just as full. It clicked that people pay for the skill and the experience, not just the haircut. Now I price for the value of my time, not to be the cheapest option in town.

inMy friend totally spoiled the ending of Attack on Titan at our watch party
Ugh, that's the worst! Honestly my cousin ruined the Red Wedding for me by laughing about it at dinner.

inMy neighbor said I should use a certain kind of insulation for our old house in Strathcona
Ugh, that's the worst! I mean, old windows will just suck the heat right out, maybe try that plastic film you shrink with a hair dryer first.

inThat week in 2012 when I fixed 17 old tube radios for a collector in Dayton
Remember reading a blog post from a guy who restored old radios, and he said the best part was the smell of hot dust and warm tubes. That quiet focus you're talking about is totally a real thing. It's like the world just fades away when you're tracing a circuit with a schematic that's older than you are. Those deep dive jobs are getting harder to find now that everything is about quick swaps and disposable parts. Makes you appreciate the skill it took to actually fix something for good.
