That's twice that I've eaten chile and he's had gas,
Can you knock him out by drinking wine?
Sorry about the fire alarm, Hec. I think that's primarily what they are for, since they seem to flip out only when you are indisposed.
Fire alarms are in such deep karmic debt to me that they're obliged to actually save my life at some point now. I cannot begin to describe the misery of the one that went off every half hour one night and was hooked into the electrical system so you couldn't turn it off. By the fouth hour you'd just be nodding off to sleep and jerked back awake again and again every half hour. Genuinely torturous.
I didn't. Curses! Do you have the gmail address?
Probably not. Is it in your profile? It was just the LJ community for Vintage_Hair reminded me of you because (a) so many of them liked to get dressed up in full-on makeup and ensembles and take self-portraits and (b) most had hair about your current length and were doing fun/fancy 40s style rolls and pompadours and pincurls and such. Also there were some voluptuous blondes of the type you favor.
I'm thinking day spa.
Sigh... Day spas are one of the true June gifts for birthdays.
It's been a long year, a little pampering is in more than order.
I am not going to join the dissing of the fire alarms though. I have too accute an urge for candles. Lots and lots of them. So I honor my smoke and fire detectors and give them fresh nummy batteries when they chirp. It was the deal I made. I could have much live flame, I just needed something to watch over me.

Nah, but it's mohmlet at.
So, you know. Now you have it! I'll have to check out Vintage_hair. Sounds extra-keen.

Word!
I'm mildly cranky because this year, my b-day is on Father's Day (my in-laws make a Big Deal of the Hallmark Days, which still baffles me, so there's already Father's Day stuff in the works), and my parents are going up Island again that weekend, so they won't even be in the same country as me. Bastards. And I say that with LOVE.

Is it okay if we make a little extra fuss over you then?
So, from the hair links of yonks past, when I went to the kinda curly section, there were some shots of Meg Ryan that I am wondering if they need a stylist or if they can translate to Cass hair?
For instance... [link] seems like it might translate to me in another color and without the really interesting press speculations. And this [link] is lovely but seems like it would require a level of product and committment that I am unable to procur.
Fortunately our fire alarms in this house are hooked into the overall alarm system, and neither have the batteries go dead or keep going once you punch in the code. I note that there were standard fire alarms here once, but some previous occupant yanked them all down.
This still doesn't make up for the landlord's alarm that goes off whenever the power goes out. That's all it does; it's not hooked to anything else. What the purpose is, I don't know, but when it went off one night at 2:00 am, we yanked all the wires and life has been so much nicer. It's still loud in this apartment when it goes off in the rest of the building, but it doesn't make your ears bleed.
I'm so confused. I just got a call from the embassy saying we weren't supposed to pay the doctor or the midwife for the labor/delivery. The embassy pays for everything. The reason the hospital said we didn't owe anything and could just leave was because they were billing the embassy. Now, we've already submitted our claims and been reimbursed by the insurance, so we aren't out any money, but if the embassy was going to pay, shouldn't they have mentioned that to us at some point? And why did the OB/GYN ask us to pay her - she's been delivering embassy babies at a steady clip for the past few years. She didn't double-claim - that's how the embassy found out. They called to pay her and she said, No, I've already been paid. And the other people we talked to who've had babies here never said the embassy paid, they just said "Be sure to claim everything, as it's all covered."
This is the worst post I've ever been at for communication. I get to take Mal in tomorrow, along with all my receipts and paperwork, and spend a joyous afternoon in the med unit.

I knew something was wrong when I got the Friday before... Bother.
I shall send my good day'ness to Plei as a gift.
My family will be confused but it is my birthday and I don't see why we should change all of the customs...
Cass, how much wave do you have? If you have enough, a modified version of the second could be done with a simple scrunch-and-go.
I have much of the wave. It's boisterously trying to break into the curly brackets actually.
So I could pull that one off? Because I love the way I think the look would look on me.
I can't pull up witnesses to my hair because I know I pay undue homage to the The Clip for many years now. Unless brave Buffistas will come to say "Her face was mismatched, exactly like this." And the hair was held back with some kind of clip....

I think so. Just a little keep-it-in-place cream, and Bob's your uncle.
