Don't have a bucket, or a buck. I can try the sink, but I'm not sure I'm coordinated enough for that.
Well, we may not have parted on the best of terms. I realize certain words were exchanged. Also, certain... bullets. But that's air through the engine. It's past. We're business people.

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.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
The white-tailed deer of Pennsylvania object to that sort of thing. Your local deer may vary.
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.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Comb and rinse, rinse and comb are your friends. Not sure about henna rules but I add dabs of really watered down conditioner if it gets rough combing.
Damn, I ought color my hair. And brows.

Conditioner helps get it out. My default method, which is to fill the tub and soak it out, isn't going to help you, unfortunately. If you have one of those juice pitchers, though, you can put water in it and just repeatedly pour it through until it's gone. Some henna's grainier than others, and I've had days when I felt like I just could NOT get the damn stuff out.
(The stuff I'm using now rinses like a dream.)

Conditioner seemed to make it stickier. I don't think I own a comb. I'll try using a cup and pouring water through it.
I actually went out and was social today, which was good. Went to trivia, and we won.

Connie I wish I had magic words to make what you are going through smooth, but I know I don't. I've been keeping you in my thoughts and sending thoughts of strength to you. Take care of yourself and be kind to yourself.

So in work related theivery last week an employee was caught stealing, turns out he'd been doing it since December and is going to jail based on the dollar amount stolen.
Today a guy came in and acted suspicous and tried to walk out with a camera, when confronted he finally gave the item up and walked out the door. The store called the cops. He was arrested, turns out he's wanted on mulitple charges. He had been in the store yesterday just after two other men had everyone on high alert as possible shop lifters. The theory is they were working together because those guys went afer the same camera.
