Endless Ends

What on earth is the purpose of such? Protection in the thicket? :unsure:

Dear Lord.

That is . . . .

I don't know what that is! 🤣 🤣



A mask is similar to a conditioner, except more deeply conditioning, left on longer, and applied root to ends.

Just what a girl needs after fighting branches, copper heads, and smilax for several days. 🕶️

I also - for the first time ever - got stung by a scorpion.

There was much cussing. Bad words I did not even know I knew. Those stings hurt!!! So now I sit, foot elevated, propped on an ice pack, waiting to use a corticosteroid.

Oh, yeah. And to see if I have an allergic reaction. :rolleyes:

*sigh*


So, bad tv while I wait. The Naked Witch (1961). It's billed as -

"A student researching the German settlements of Central Texas unearths the grave of a reputed witch."

All I can say is the movie makers had not spent much time in Central Texas! 🤣

Heavy German settlements, yes. Rampant witches, not so much. Certainly not witches like those portrayed during England's witch burnings!

And, it's mostly voice over. . . .


Nope! Twenty minutes in and I can't take anymore. :p
 
An unsung classic this movie is not! 🤣

But - couple of points.

-Typical woman in trouble situation, but!
-Native woman, rather than white woman.
-Yeti costume appeared to be dark grey mummy wrappings.
-With pull-on fur paws.

Pull-on fur paws. :p

Notes:
1) White men had to be coerced to try and rescue native woman. When creature was caught (and they wrested back control) they promptly abandoned the search.
2) Dark grey mummy wrappings? C'mon! At least make them white. Like, he's so apex predator he doesn't need to camouflage in the snow? 🤷‍♀️
 
Welp, no anaphylactic shock, so, nope. :p

Surprisingly uncomfortable this morning, though. No treadmill today.

The are ubiquitous in my area.

UBIQUITOUS

More so than copperheads.

And, tis the season. 🤷‍♀️


Quicksand, huh?

*ponders putting some in*

For the obstacle course I'm planning. :catgrin:
 
Enny, I know your pain . . . from my days in Texas, I have in my office a "scorpion encased in glass" (a going away remembrance gift). . . from head to tail end it's about 3". Something like this . . .

Thank goodness the scorpions up here in GA are only about 1" long,
but I have been stung a couple times cleaning away brush (gloves only now!)
And, as small as they are, they do find a way into the house on occassion.

^^What a . . . keepsake!

That would creep me out seeing it on a desk or bookshelf everyday. 😬

*shudder*

This guy was smallish. Say and inch and a half.

Have you seen the pics where babies ride around on the mother's back?

*falls down in hysterics*


Edited. Huh. I can't get a pic to post. Just as well. 😂
 
Today, as I was shifting piles of books to do an entirely necessary (😬) scorpion sweep - one of the books fell open.

Ringworld (Niven)

To a part in the beginning where Speaker-to-Animals (Kzintz) is insulting Luis Wu (human) by saying he found Luis's challenge too verbose. "In challenging a kin, a simple scream of rage is sufficient. You scream and leap."

That's it. From now on.

I scream and leap. :p


You probably have to read the book, but I'm telling you, it's fuuuuunny. 😂
 
Omg. The Bestie just had a heart attack.

Heart issues in the family. Three siblings and two have already passed through massive coronaries. The first one went at forty, which The Bestie is past.


I. Am. Freaking. Out. 😧

(Which I am doing here so I don't do it with her.)

*zooms*
 
She's okay. *thunk*

I am resuming plans to be havoc raising old ladies together once she retires. I have no idea what type of havoc, mind. Isn't there a group that runs around wearing red hats or something?

Clearly I need to do some research before the time comes. :p
 
Today - painting.
Tomorrow - goes up on squat weights. :p
Saturday - runs amok for a girls' day out!

Tonight - collapses on couch and looks for a reeeeeeeally bad movie to decompress.


And then maybe meditate. Again.

I've already done two rounds today, but it's not like you can do it too much, right?

#stresssss
 
I have scrubbed and scoured. To no avail.

I will be having lunch out tomorrow with paint-stained hands.

Painting. The never-ending rehab chore. 🤷‍♀️
 
*stretches*

Lunch, weird errands, and early rising.

I guess. I should. Go. To bed.

*foot stomp*

I am feeling all pouty today and I do not know whyyyyyyyyy.

Maybe a little whiney, too. 🤔
