My all-time favorite
I remember memorizing this in about sixth or seventh grade. (Not in school, just because.I believe I found it in a library book.)I loved it. Still do.
How often do you wash your hair?
How often do you wash your hair? EVERY day (I’m a girl) EVERY day (I’m a guy) Every OTHER day (I’m a girl) Every OTHER day (I’m a guy) Every COUPLE of days (I’m a girl) Every COUPLE of days…
I need good tweezers.
Any suggestions? My least favorite thing is when I pluck and then the hair breaks. UGH. So, going to the States and need to buy a new pair. Thoughts?

I owe my long hair to Redken Extreme Antisnap

Ferg’s a working dog.
(In a non-prostitute way.)
As you can see, Ferg’s hard at work again today.(I’m hoping to one day get a good photo of her face.As you can see, she’s very dark. 🙂
As it turns out
Yesterday got away from me, as well. My nephew is off to a new adventure: boarding school. He leaves today and yesterday was our family dinner. We’re heading off to San Diego/L.A. this weekend to see him off, see the…
I’m not trying to brag…
…but I get to go see Wicked a WEEK from tonight in L.A.(My sister’s birthday gift to me!) I’m currently downloading the soundtrack right now, of course. So I can sing along when I go. (Of course.) (iTunes really isn’t…
Yah, Marge. Yah.
C. and I watched Fargo this past weekend.Whenever it’s on, we can’t help it, just to hear those accents makes me so happy.I love Marge Gunderson. Therefore, that said, I would like to declare Friday, “Talk-like-you’re-from-North-Dakota-day”. Yah.
My jaw is dropped wide open.
From Fox news:PERRIS, Calif. — A suspected drunken driver crashed with a motorcycle and then left the scene, unknowingly driving away with the motorcyclist’s dead body lodged in the rear window of his car, investigators said. Tony Martinez, 54, pulled…
Let me break it down for you.
If you hate animals, you’re weird.If you think of ways to hurt/maim or kill them, you’re crazy.If you don’t “awe” over a puppy, you’re oddly heartless. Ok, I could keep going…but really, in all honesty, if you don’t like animals…
![When I was a kid, my Mom would sometimes go to the grocery store at night while my baby sister and I were "supposed" to be sleeping. Baby sister slept, I stood by the window and watched for her headlights to turn back into the driveway, my stomach a gnarled mess while I waited.
The entire time she was gone I would create ill-fated stories in my mind that would ultimately leave her injured, kidnapped, or left for dead... I think these stories got worse after my Dad died. "What if I lose my one parent?"
I would stand there and worry.
And she always came back.
In one piece.
Over time, after therapy when I was younger, I realized that worrying doesn't shape anything... worrying doesn't CHANGE the outcome... but, it's real.
Telling someone not to worry is about as effective as telling someone not to cry when they're in the midst of full-sobbing or it's like asking someone WHERE they lost the thing that they lost.
"I can't find my keys."
"Where did you lose them."
[silence]
"Um, if I knew where I lost them, then..."

This time that we're living through right now is BIG and heavy and for the love of ALL THINGS HOLY it keeps on going.
I remember watching The Sound of Music when I was a kid and wondering when in the WORLD it would end. We're STUCK in the Sound of Music.
Schools opened, then closed.
Masks on, then off.
Life started, and stopped.
We've missed get-togethers and holidays.
Weddings and births.
We are as disconnected as ever.
Our worrying and concern and fear and anxiety is there... and it's real.
I see you.
I know this time is hard.
I'm not going to tell you to stop feeling the feelings, I just want you to know that I'm feeling them, too. (And therapy is helping.)
Get yourself a therapist.
Talk about all of this.
As I told one of my girls this week, “It’s ok not to be strong all the time.”
With love,
