Oh Jilli, I'm sorry.

Suzi too.

Well, I'm home now, and in the last 5 minutes I've done more to start redoing the work I lost yesterday than I was able to do all day. On the plus side, tomorrow they are bringing me a new (to me) computer, and the tornado warning that was issued for my county didn't turn into an actual tornado.

Liv's friend has been in the chair for an hour, trying to unknot and sort out her hair. Apparently, her father is pissed about it. I have no idea of when it happened. When I picked her up, the mom and I chatted for quite a bit. Did it happen before I got there? No clue. How did Liv get a hold of scissors? No idea.

It's hair. It's going to grow back! Why am I so guilty about this? The mom is in tears over it.

I offered, again, to pay the stylist.

I don't know if there's any risk of this, but Jilli -- don't watch Criminal Minds tonight.

Thank you for the heads-up. I don't watch the show, but I still appreciate the warning.

And thank you for the kind words, everyone. The person who passed away wasn't a close friend, but was someone who I liked and who was a good person.

I'm watching what I thought was a documentary about Leo Frank, but it's got a lot of really annoying historical reenactment. I don't understand why they felt this was necessary.

Cash, I don't see why they called you in the first place. (Unless you hadn't picked her up yet?). 3 year olds needs to be supervised and it's not like it happened at your house. I mean, I'd be pissed too but not *at* anyone, especially not you. Like you said, hair grows back.

I have half an avocado. I'm trying to decide what to make for dinner with it.

Throw it at a chicken and knock him out; cook that instead. If there's a river nearby you could try for a fish.

I just feel badly because Liv is the leader of the two. And any trouble they tend to get into is usually her idea. I think the mom just needed to talk to *someone*. She earnestly told me that she didn't want to make me feel guilty but I think she just needed someone to talk to.

This takes me back to gender-hair issues. If this were Olivia, I'd tell the stylist to chop it into a cute pixie cut and deal with it from there. And yet, it's become a huge emotional issue with this family.

Let me guess, this is their first kid.

ION, I am totally addicted to Wonka gummi slugs.

Or, at least, their first girl.

This Leo Frank documentary has narration by someone with a horrible fake southern accent. This would be so much better if they'd get rid of the theatrics and just tell the story.

t edit: OK, the trial reenactment does actually show something more interesting than just telling it would. But the reenactment of the investigation was just weird.
