I am so bereft about my stylist. Our friend Ernst (no, really) was my stylist in Indiana and he was so good he could do anything and it looked amazing, so I would let him play. He would refuse to do stuff I wanted sometimes and he was always right. I kept going to him all the way through Kansas and New Mexico, but I figured by the time I was in my third state from moving away I should find a new stylist. But I always hate everyone. They always give me the youngest girl, and she is always horrified by my butch or punk cuts and tries to femme it up and then I look horrid. Like a mom haircut gone terribly wrong. I miss Ernst. And I still see him twice a year. I should just go back to him. I just started feeling bad that I just visited him to get my hair cut. But really. It`s his fault for being so damn good no one in the country could replace him.

I need a haircut so bad

Aren't you due for a San Francisco trip?

Poor Liese. I went back to my old stylist because her cuts were always the best, but this last one was just so-so.

I just tried a new stylist, and went back for the dry cut the other day (free in between cuts). She was a little cheaper than my old one, but I picked her based on yelp reviews, and because I wasn't feeling the last few cuts I'd gotten from the other woman.

But I always tip 20% to haircuts and massages and nails. I just figure that's gotta be a decent tip--I don't want to be the customer they bitch about! The thing I get puzzled about is the "free" cuts in between (my old stylist did them too). Sometimes it's just a bit of bang or neck trim, but for example this time, she did a little more, since it had been the first cut and she wanted to see how it was going. I tipped $10 (I think the original cut was $70 plus tip?) but couldn't decide if that was good or bad.

I got the insomnia fairy tonight. I hope everyone else is sleeping (at least, during the appropriate time slot in their time zone).

Damn, it's 2 a.m.

Insomnia fairy has visited Colorado also. Gah.

I finally watched an episode of Hoarders. OMFG. I feel like my place is a mess but I'm sparkling compared to the people they profiled. Wow!

Question--where do we discuss the Good Wife? (DO we discuss?)

Also--I just randomly emailed two cute girls on OKCupid. Who are not geographically compatible. One just to say "Aww, thumbs up, your profile is awesome and you are adorable" (she's in LA! Do we know butch loving femmes in LA? Cause she's hot), and one...I have no idea why (I mean, she's hot and her profile is all that, but....um...it's not like she would date me from a few states away).

And NorCal.

LiveJournal, or here.

I promise that I am going to close the laptop and try to sleep, yet again, as soon as I hit POST.

At least I have been productive. A friend and I are making a banner for our dojo to take to tournament. Tonight I marked out all the spacing on it. Tomorrow I stencil in the letters and then figure out how to copy the logo. Saturday my friend and I will ink in everything.

Oh, and Google's home page is cool today.

Google *is* cool today.
