Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

Maybe I should be worried that my legs seem to be hairless these days.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

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

OPI by Sephora is discontinued. The whole line. They started carrying their own line. Though Sephora's website might still sell it. Ebay or Amazon and soon.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Maybe I should be worried that my legs seem to be hairless these days.

Not to cry wolf, but losing all the hair on my arms and legs was the first symptom of my alopecia. Not that I mind not having to shave... You should maybe see a dermatologist.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

It can also be the sign of a circulatory problem.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Andi, you have told your doctor about the hair and eyelash loss, right? My pet theory is that whenever the body is stressed and needs to conserve resources, hair production stops because it's not essential.

I quit the doctor and the meds. Too much fuss and bother if all I really miss are the eyelashes.

The combination of the congestion from this cold (which isn't bad, just there ) and healed-but,yeah-corneal-abrasion+pinkeye-a-week-ago makes staring at a computer screen to get through 200+ emails less than comfortable. Can I go home now?

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I've stripped wallpaper from several rooms. The first time was textbook-easy -- we rented a steamer, and large panels of wallpaper practically wilted off the walls.

However, when I bought my house, the one bedroom had Teddy Bear wallpaper that had to go. Little did I know that the bears concealed a second layer of water-impermeable wallpaper from perhaps the 1920s... which had been applied directly to the unsized horsehair plaster... which had never been properly smoothed, because the walls were always intended to be wallpapered.

If I hadn't had the first experience with wallpaper removal, I would have been convinced that it was just my incompetence that was making the whole process so hard. Or maybe I would have given up and paid for professionals to deal with it, which in retrospect seems a better choice.

In conclusion: people who paint or wallpaper over wallpaper are Satan.
