Yay erin! (and hey, too!).

I'll give you some health~ma if you'll give me some job~ma. I have two weeks off, I can afford being sick.

I wanted, once, for a few days, to work at the lost and found section of the police. I love the idea of pointing people back to info/data/object they're after, and sorting that. I hope that doesn't make me crazy.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Not crazy, Shir. I loved being the quartermaster for my Boy Scout troop back in the day. It was like being a librarian of assorted stuff.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I'd come home with basically one huge tangle, which would take my mom about a week of working at least an hour a night to get through. Is it just a curly hair thing?

Nope-- fine straight hair can have a tendency to really snarl up miserably too, especially right behind the ears and down at the nape of the neck. And it's easy with straight hair to pretend it's not happening as long as you keep the top layer brushed.

Hmm. Interesting. My sister straightens her hair, and she seems to get much fewer tangles than I do. And her hair was definitely as much trouble as mine when we were kids.

For your sister, straightening her hair doesn't change the texture from coarse to fine; it just changes the curl to straight. It's the fine texture that makes fine, straight hair tangle so much. Since your sister's is artificially straightened and therefore still coarse, it doesn't do the death tangle of fine hair.

signed,
has fine hair that's also curly -- kill me now

Srsly. As a wee tot, my hair was long long long -- probably like Lillian's -- and washing/brushing/detangling my hair was an exercise in patience, futility, and many tears. Eventually my mom realized that the best option was a cute Dorothy Hamill haircut, and off it went. SO much easier.

Which is, BTW, much the same reason I'm getting it cut next week. It's SO fucking long right now -- I need to take a picture. It's really pretty like that, but after about 2-3 hours it gets hot and then its own weight starts to pull the curl out, which then makes my hair just look wrinkled and messy, so then I just put in a ponytail, which -- if I do that every day, what's the point?

Plus, oh my god, the bedhead.

So despite the grumbles of The Boy, it's getting quite a bit cut next week.

Woot! Congrats!!! Hope that throat gets better soon. You've mentioned on LJ a few times, how long have you had it?? Have you been to a doc?

Job~ma for you Shir. Have you heard from that place you applied to a short time back?

Bonny, much physical~ma for your visit. And good for you for finding a doc that will play ball (financially). Kudos!

OK, off to work. They scheduled a meeting an hour earlier than I normally go in. Ugg. Mornings. Blargh.

No. Guess they didn't want me.

Morning, dear.

Crap, I've been meaning to get a haircut for ages and now I have to go out of town again next week. Wonder if she can squeeze me in before then. Wonder if I can squeeze it in before then. Dang.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Emeline's hair is very thick and very fine and tangles like woah. I want to grow it out, but I'm also tired of fighting with her in the mornings when it tangles and I comb it and it hurts her, poor noodle. Maybe I'll go back to her bangs and bob.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Funny, but I can't remember my mom's combing my hair, not even once. I vaguely remember that it might have hurt, and then I tried to do it myself. And it stayed that way, long enough for me not to remember other options.
