That does sound like the kind of thing where I can see where the mom might still be flipping out, but she should stop talking about it to you.

As a side note, I provide a link to the The myth of the story behind In the Air Tonight For years, I swore that some guy had let Phil's brother drown, and then Phil saw the guy in the audience of a show and wrote the song.

Ha! Looks like my interpretation was way closer than the well known UL.

Seriously, when I was in SF, Hec was teaching me about Tom Waits and Swordfishtrombones and these like, curio box type things and it led to a strange way that I listen to music now.

So in my- Hateful/Bitter/Villain box is In the Air Tonight, that quote about playing a villain, Behind Blue Eyes, Pete on Mad Men and a few other things.

You may technically be Canadian, yourself.

You're right. I looked at the citizenship information, and it does look like I might be technically a citizen. Hmmmm.

She mentioned scaring Liv by showing her E's hair tomorrow but honestly, I've gone over this with her and it's not something I want Liv to carry around with her for fucking ever.

W. T. F?! Yeah, what's the point of scaring Liv? What good will that do?

Yeah. No. Your daughter may have left her daughter with messed up hair for a few weeks, but she's looking to scar your daughter for life over it. Hells no.

I'm already paying $35 for a stylist to fix it.

Holy crap. I'm so glad I'm having all boys. (I cut D's hair myself with clippers. It's not perfect, but he's two and I'm cheap.)

Okay, the line into unreasonably crazy has officially been crossed with this woman.

That woman is just being ridiculous--it's only hair! It'll grow back! WTF.

IpuppyN, The Hand is doing some cleaning of their bed. Looks like one of them had a little mess.

I'll own up that I'm neurotic and weird about Lillian's hair, largely because it's never been cut, and I'd be totally off the rails irrational if something happened to it.

I finally cut Ellie's hair at 3.5 only because it was so dry on the ends that it was leading to lots of tangles and fights. So I get why she's upset because I would have been very upset if someone had cut her hair before I did. But there's no reason to keep mentioning it to you. That's passive-aggressive guilt-mongering and certainly shouldn't be passed on to Liv. Again - I blame the mom. She should have been supervising her child. What if they'd found something more dangerous than scissors?

eta: And when I say I blame the mom, I'm not sure anyone should really be blamed. But if the mom insists on saddling someone with guilt, she is the one responsible.

Timelies all!

Sleepy...

ION: Has everyone seen the Eve-with-the-apple Caprica promos (by which I mean web placements). Does it look horribly photoshopped a la Ralph Lauren to anyone else?
