I had one shedding in my late 20s due to stress, then the induced shedding of chemo (and forced menopause, I suppose) in my late 30s, then weirdness that was the 2019-20 hospitalization... I am lucky that I started with so damn much, let's just say.

I do love my Cruella DeVille-like gray streak. More than one youngling has asked me if I put it there myself. I mean, I suppose, in a way... but not with dye.

Speaking of gray, that's the weather here today, and a little rainy. Enjoying a chai, while catching up here, with a pup snuggled up on my left, and a still-snoozing spouse upstairs. It's a whole mood.

Punishingly Intricate

My hair has gotten wavier as it’s gotten more silver and I’m digging it.

I wish mine were. No such luck.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Yeah, my greys are straight and wiry and stand out quite a bit against the rest of my hair, which is much curlier. I don't mind the grey streaks, but I do wish they'd curl more.

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.

So, yesterday got a little exciting.

I'll start off with the good news: I'm fine, no one is hurt.

The bad news: I was sideswiped on the way to Safeway, and the car's front axle is broken. It's a 2009, so the insurance will probably total it.

Not how I wanted to spend my Saturday afternoon/evening.

I have now been sideswiped or rear-ended three times in the past five years. Each time, I was in the proper lane and not moving, waiting for a traffic light or at a stop sign.

This fucking year, man. 2020 just goes on and on and on.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Oh, Karl, what a bummer. I’m glad you are okay physically, at least.

after Covid your hair falls out.

Huh. I guess I'll add that to the list of possible culprits.

My hair is also becoming wavy as I get older, and I am DELIGHTED by this.

Thanks, smonster. It's just one of those days where the doom-spiral feels entirely too close, you know?

And then I think of you and your radiant smile in the belly-dancing outfit from the SF2F, and for a brief moment all is right with the world.

Buffistas make my world a better place.

Aww. You definitely make our world better, too.

I'm a fucking amazing catch!--Fiona Gallagher, Shameless(US)

One committee I wouldn't have to be hassled to stay on. And, yes, I've also thought about the belly-dancing outfit.(half-credit for your tagline?)
