I just made a haircut appointment yesterday! But it's not until next Friday. I write the date on the stylist's card, so I know my last cut was the end of June.

Oh, I have my last appointment in iCal and it was in March. Longer than I thought, but changing salons is hard.
My hair is thinning. I changed the part in my hair and I'm doing what is essentially a brush over to minimize the visible curve of my skull through the hair. I'm not worried about it. Yet.

Nutty: Cutest typo in a Literary thread ever. I'm sitting here imagining Jane Eyre as a giant, long-necked dinosaur bashing in the skulls of other dinosaurs to proclaim herself Queen! Queen of the primordial swamp!!
Jessica: Reader, I trampled him.
Minoxidil helps with thinning hair on the crown, but it stops working when you stop using it.

Go, sister of Sox!
Bravo Sox!Sister! I wish I'd known in advance. To be fair, it's been hard to cheer for Oracle, because Ellison is a jerk and nobody likes him. But I would happily cheer for the team...
TBH I was cheering for OMG crazy space-age pirate airfoil boats DID I MENTION PIRATES!! and trying really hard to ignore the Larry factor altogether.
Um. Not that Sox!Sister is an actual pirate. But if you have a freakin' 50mph super-stealth frickin' sailboat, I say you owe it to the universe to ram and board your enemies at least once for my amusement. Yes?

Does anyone here choose their doctors looking for a name they prefer? Do you base it on "Bill" is a better doctor for me than "Fluffy"?
I don't even know the first names of many of my doctors--I have a recurring appointment with one whose surname I can't remember either.
"If you can't imagine seeing a doctor with that first name, don't give it to your kid." "Right. Sometimes that's all you have to decide between doctors, and Bill Smith is a better choice than Fluffy Watson."
I think I'd be too embarrassed to say that out loud, much less defend it.
