Oh, at first it was confusing. Just the idea of computers was like — whoa! I'm eleven hundred years old! I had trouble adjusting to the idea of Lutherans.

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

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.

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.)

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

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.

Thrive to spite them

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.

I don't think I own a comb.

I have a friend with curls like yours but she is your obverse when it comes to hair care. She doesn't own a brush, as she has told me many times.

Yipes askye, that's a lot of stealing.

I'm not a narcissist at all. Generally I hate pictures of me. But I'm really wanting to see pics of me from the ceremony. I looked gooood in that new suit! Too bad it was windy. No chance for my hair to look good.

I was just thinking about the household budget without his disability pension and am now fighting off a panic attack. And realizing my comforter and reassurer is gone. I may not be sleeping much tonight.
