This is when I mention how much I'm still in love with the water cooler delivery service. Thanks Costco!
I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

Art Crawl!!!
Last week I went for an eye checkup. (I was quite overdue for it.) Eyes haven't changed but the doctor suggested getting stronger readers for when I'm wearing my contacts and I did and I tried it today and it worked so much better than my previous readers. Now if only my eyes could atand the contacts better.

How do you bust ligaments in your foot? That sounds awful!

Our wings are not tired.
The (far too few) hairs that have turned seem more white than gray, so here's hoping. Considering my family history I think I will have a long wait.

The ball of my foot started hurting and getting slightly swollen around thanksgiving. I can still walk on it and stuff, it's not that painful, just annoying.

Yikes, Calli!
He'll be glad to have that cartilage if society collapses.
I can't kick fascist asses with a sore paw!
Pink sparkly hearts, lisah.
My "grey" hair is actually white, but doesn't take color well at all. My brown hair is kinda resistant also, I think, so maybe there is something else going on.

Yikes. Mystery injuries just allow you to make up amazing stories.

Same here. Somehow when my stylist purples my hair, they will take the color, but when I do touch ups at home, with non-stylist stuff, they don't grab the color at all. So I have both purple and white at my temples.
Work just got interesting. I'm an SME for one of our new systems. My new boss (who has 70 people under her unlike my old boss who only had 8)just called me with a very basic "how to" question on that system. I'm glad she sees me as a resource.
We also talked about the raise and promotion I had been promised would happen April 1st. She was not fully aware though she did say, "I think I have you covered anyway". So, we will see what happens there.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
45 minutes ago, my coworker said she was 10-15 minutes from starting a process that we need to finish today. Sigh.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Blue/purple hair intrigues me, but I'm afraid of what bleach would do to my already fragile hair. So then I thought about just coloring the bottom inch or two, so that the damage would be contained. Problem is, I don't have a stylist, and I don't know where to go to get it done right.(Probably not the Hair Cuttery) Ah, well, I probably should let it grow out a bit, since I just got it cut.

Sheryl, check Groupon. You might find a deal for a local salon that is a step or two above the Hair Cuttery. I like purple because when it fades, the color doesn't change all that much, just gets lighter.
I had an experience a few years back with blue hair that fades into a swamp green color, so I've stayed away from blue. But that may very well have been that specific product and not blue in general. I always ask if the stylist knows how a color will fade.
