On the brighter side there is now a precedent that may be the beginning of the end for HB2. Maybe. I hope.

I almost feel bad for all the people who could have just checked their various weapons, but tried to carry them on and had them confiscated.

I only feel bad for people who forget about, say, their Swiss Army Knife. If you always have it in your purse/pocket, it's easy to forget it's there. But seriously, who tries to carry on guns, knives, throwing stars, and Batarangs in 2016?

I wish the henna-and-indigo combination had worked for me, but I turned out to be allergic to indigo, so I've got no choice but commercial dyes if I want to not be gray yet. They're so drying, and I might be mildly allergic to them too.

Doing anything with hair color requires a lot of upkeep. No matter how much I like it, I get bored and annoyed with the maintenance. My hair grows fast; I have a halo of silver hair within two weeks of a dye job.

Having had a bad experience trying to color my own hair, I rely on a professional. I go every four weeks, but two to three weeks in, I'm starting to show at the roots. I arrange my hair to cover them up as best I can, but it's a hassle. Not giving it up, though ... at least for a while. I keep thinking I'm getting too old to have the auburn ... maybe when I turn 65 I'll stop. Maybe.

Seriously! I feel bad they are dumb. Because I'm guessing they weren't planning to need the batarang on the plane??

I'm apparently too young to have gray hair and too old to have dark brown, so I stick with auburn and touch it up every two weeks. I'm generally discontent.

And you'd think they could at least stop by FedEx or someplace before they get in the security line and ship their weapons home. I know that when the bans went into effect, a catalog for needlework supplies I used to get started highlighting a thread cutter that would go through easily (small round with notches that had sharp edges inside).

I once heard someone complaining that a necklace with a bullet pendant was confiscated ... which may be taking it too far.

The batarang budget is bigger than you think. It's easy to lose track of things.

That happened to me on my last flight, forgot a multi-tool. So I got the full pat down and everything. I was too fascinated by the process to be worried.

I'm a bad person. I have a kitchen full of food and all I want to eat is pizza.
