because she always wants to fix things.

yeah, my mom is like this. And my dad is too. So together they make Type AA (or perhaps in battery terms it is a "D")

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I recently found out that there are delousing salons where I guess you can take your kids to be combed and shampooed and whatnot for you.

yeah but they charge like 100s of dollars. My friend dropped like a $1000 with Hair Fairies, and another spent about the same for some lady who comes to your house and combs through your hair for you.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Wow! I figured they'd be pricey, but that's a lot more than I was guessing.

Hair Fairies

The Hair Fairies make the lice go away with their magic wands?

They use magic combs and some herbal spray made out of unicorn farts that "melts" the glue that makes the nits stick to your hair. In our house we are going the Rx route and using the alcohol lotion that kills the lice. I might be tempted to then use the magic unicorn fart spray, but no way I'm counting on it as the first line of defense.

Jamie Lee's hair is very tempting.

That's basically my hair these days, although mine is a bit more spikey on top.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I would want to shave everyone too, but I'm guessing the public flag of "this family had lice" is not so good for, well, anyone to announce socially. Which is why one should start out shaved, and then booyah.

I just saw Russell Wong in an Ikea ad. Man, I feel sorry for the guy. He should be in a thing where he's a character, not in 30 seconds pretending he carved a rose out of a turnip. He's so much more than that!

I just sent a hugely ass kissy email to my manager asking if I can help her out of the morass she's finding herself in. She's both underinformed and overinformed, and I feel remiss as the next level down in the org chart if I can't take some of the load off. And, hey, the bonuses have been given, and the raises decided, right? So no way I could be angling for that shit, right?

Dear god, did I just ask for more work? What the fuck is wrong with me? But I feel bad for her, and we all suffer when this piles up on her. It's all around not good.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

In other news. 24 companies have bailed on Limbaugh.

Wow. I never would have thought this would have occurred even a week ago.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I'm just really confused because I thought he'd said much worse before this. Was this the first time he'd said something hugely misogynistic? Was it just homophobic crap before?

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Part of me is like, "woo!!" and part of me is like, "WTF took you so long??" (re: ditching Limbaugh)

Burrell, that is so annoying. Ugh.
