just a note - for those with curly body hair, waxing may not be the way to go (ingrown hairs ... ow).
I've actually had less issue with that than with shaving, not sure why.
When you look back at this, in the three seconds it'll take you to turn to dust, I think you'll find the mistake was touching my stuff.

Very first world problem: My hairdresser is no longer working at the place I go to. It's one of those places that makes you sign a contract saying you won't take clients with you if you leave, so they won't give me her information, and she can't contact me. I was just starting to really like my hair and we tweaked with the color until it was just the way I wanted it last time. Sad now.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
sj, can you google her?
And I get non-compete contracts, but jeebus, if you are making the call, the former salon should STFU already. Just because she signed a thing doesn't mean you'll stay at that salon.

That is weak, sj. I don't go the salon for the salon - I go for my fabulous hairdresser! She moved recently but luckily got all her clients' addresses beforehand and sent out postcards with her new info. Thank God because the old salon won't give her info to clients that ask. I think that's really short-sighted. Like I'll ever go back to that salon after that, you know?

I can't google her because I never got her last name. I meant to get it because I knew she wouldn't be able to contact me if she quit.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
even if you can't find her, don't go back to the salon. I hate that way of dealing with things.
You not having to work is a good plan-- but I am guessing witting will be more like 50 to 75% of you time - 'cause you will have most of the domestic duties. You'd need to establish office hours as quickly as possible.
A lot of intangibles matter a lot,but there are ways to compensate for a lot of them.

beth, I'm not, but I hate having to look for a new place too. Especially with my birthday coming next month. I don't want bad hair for my birthday. t /shallow

The status is NOT quo.
I love the West so much. I really belong out here.I know exactly what you mean. I felt the West calling me every time I visited and am so glad to finally live out here. I wish we could afford to live closer to the coast, though. Someday.
I hate when businesses use that "you're not allowed to take your clients" thing. That happened with my acupuncturist in CT, and I had to do a little investigation to finally find her. Needless to say, I never went back to the original office. Jerks.
Nora, I'm so sorry your stomach is hurting. Do you have a gastroenterologist? You may want to ask your regular doctor for a referral.

Nora, I hope your doctor figures out what's wrong and helps you.
