If you aren't willing to step up for permanent damage for the pretties, you can just hand back your girl card, stat. Come ON now.

Oh, I totally agree with you! (Which reminds me, I need to bleach my streaks tomorrow night.) But I've seen the hair chalking thing touted as a temporary hair color, Fun And Quirky! TM thing on various blogs with no mention of the possible problems. So, caveat lector.

(Of course, I've been known to punch up my pink streaks with blush and a quick coat of hairspray. I just have a different level of Quirky Temporary Color habits.)

Skipping (oh, my, third day in a row) because, according to the Buffista Calendar, today is ChiKat's birthday.

Happy birthday, ChiKat! With lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderful year!

On Crazy Hair Day at school, a lot of the kids and teachers do this so they have rainbow hair that doesn't last.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Birthday Happies ChiKat!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

From that link:

the same spellings pronounced different ways (chrome, machine, attach)

It took me a loooong time to realize they just meant the "ch" in those words, and not the words themselves.

Egad, I have to get Matilda up, feed her, dress her and get her ready for school. But I just did that yesterday!

Oh well, only....(checks calendar) eleven and a half more years to go.
