That's awesome, Tommyrot!
Congratulations on house stuff, Scrappy!
I went back to the chiropractor today (he told me to do that yesterday), and he did more adjustments to my back, and put my neck back in alignment AGAIN. Tomorrow I go to my doctor to talk about the new, excitingly awful migraines, and if I should get X-rays of my neck to see if there's something odd going on there. It turns out if you call your doctor after an ER visit, they want to see you right away. Huh.
And tonight I'm going to the spa to shuffle between hot and cold pools, and get a neck, scalp, and face massage from my favorite massage therapist.
All in all, I'm feeling better than I did the past few days, but I'm still kind of freaked out by it all.
Watching Wimbledon now: doesn't the name CoCo Vanderweghe (sp?) sound like a character out of Gossip Girl?
That's scary, Jilli. I hope there's something obviously fixable.
Meep, Jilli. Good luck with all that.
I have re-empurpled my hair (today the co-worker who originally suggested adding cobalt blue said I should match my hair to my glasses and my stylist concurred). Quite pleased with it.
-t, were you the one who was trying a dye that didn't require bleaching?
Yes! It's looking vibrant today. I asked her last time what the brand was. let's see if I can find where I put it...
Found it: Pulp Riot. It did fade a lot in the 7 weeks since last application, but I did not take any kind of care of it. It's hot enough to make washing my hair with cold water appealing again, and I found some ancient color-preserving shampoo in my bathroom, probably that doesn't go bad? We'll see how the colour does under those circumstances.
Today's been a shitshow of a day. N needed a physical for camp but we didn't know far enough in advance so we ended up at a minute clinic. G had surgery but then it got cancelled 90 minutes after it was supposed to start because the anesthesiologist was a jackass. And my GYN called me to tell me that yes, I'm in menopause, which I'm not super sad at but to think these are the only kids I'll get makes me a little wistful (though honest, I don't want more kids).

Overtone conditioner. It really really really works. (And L'Oreal has a line of sulfate-free shampoos that aren't salon-brand expensive. I think the one that my hair likes is called Eversleek, but there are a bunch for different hair types.)
Tommy, congrats! Scrappy, congrats!
Gentle hugs/waves/hairpats to all the ailing Buffistas.
Kat, did you do a test? I would like some idea if what my stupid body is doing is actually menopause or not.
