Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Sorry to interrupt, but I figured someone here might know -- I just hennaed my hair. It looks pretty good, I think. But, the water pressure in my shower isn't that good, and I can't get all of it rinsed out. I shampooed three times, but there's still a lot of henna grit stuck to my hair. Any suggestions?

Hil, do you have a tub you can fill up and dip your head into? Or would that be too hard on your joints?

I don't have a tub, just a stall shower.

A large buck you can fill with water?

The white-tailed deer of Pennsylvania object to that sort of thing. Your local deer may vary.

Don't have a bucket, or a buck. I can try the sink, but I'm not sure I'm coordinated enough for that.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Hil, the only thing you can do is get back into the shower and rinse until it's gone. I'd take a wide-tooth comb in to try and comb out most of the grit.

I'm just going to blame the remnants of the anesthesia for that one.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

consciousness is an illimitable power, and though at times it may seem to be all consciousness of misery, yet in the way it propagates itself from wave to wave, so that we never cease to feel, though at moments we appear to, try to, pray to, there is something that holds one in one's place, makes it a standpoint in the universe which it is probably good not to forsake.

This is lovely.

My favorite part is this:

you are passing through a darkness in which I myself in my ignorance see nothing but that you have been made wretchedly ill by it; but it is only a darkness, it is not an end, or the end.
