the Un-Hijackable, Non Sequitor, Rambling Thread

[snowy ciara]

Tomorrow I might have weird hair. I volunteered to be a guinea pig for a cosmetologist who's experimenting with natural coloration. Since we have no school until Monday, and I have time for him to fix it if it turns out horrible, we're going to do it tomorrow.

I have medium dark brown hair, with lots of lighter and redder highlights and I'm starting to go silver already. (Yeah, at 22. I actually found my first grey at 16.) He took 2 cups of dried hibiscis flowers, and simmered them in 4 cups of purified water until they were reduced to 2 cups of very thick liquid. It looks like blood! I'm letting it steep overnight. In the morning, he's going to come over and strain it a couple of times, heat it gently to about 100 f, (since I got my cooking thermometer in the US and it doesn't have C) add two egg whites, and two tablespoons honey and then he's gonna put it in my hair. After a half an hour, I'll rinse and see what colors we get. From the research he's already done, I'll get one of the following:

1: very subtle reddish highlights, hard to see

2: reddish highlights

3: bright red or auburn

4: Koolaid red

I can't decide if I'm nervous or not.

One of my Domme's other subs is getting robin's egg blue, from purple cabbage!

I swear in my next life I'm coming back gay so I never have to deal with a man egotistical bull shit again!

Either that or I'm coming back anti-social so I don't get lonely. I'll lock myself in a commune of women, or on a mountain, and shoot any guy who comes near me.

Don't tell me I just did that, I did, didn't I. OMG the irony.

I blame sleep deprivation due to unwell possum in my midst : laughs :

Ohhh Good heavens Miss Grace something has really wrecked havoc with you.

A 'commune of woman' ?

: shudders :

Hope you're feeling better soon

(((Gracie))))

Remember OzMan's words of wisdom on the subject of why men tend to be asshats sometimes.

Mr. Rathbone, the dude who's grand experiment this is will be bringing a cam, but I make no promises. Depends on how the photos work out. (Am I allowed to give the Mayor of Topopolis a flower?)

Trying to figure something out.
I'm not a bragger and i set my goals higher (maybe) then most people.
Had a test today and my keyboarding lab work was checked.
Got a 99 on the keyboarding which surprised me....what suprised me more was that i seemed to be the only person ever taught how to write/ type a letter and my fellow classmates seemed annoyed that I got a 99.
Anatomy and Physiology test this aft...got a 93 and was mad at myself because i changed answers and got them wrong (the right ones were my original ones). The rest of the class did poorly...no one over an 85 and one girl actually had the nerve to say...and i quote "she got a 93? you must be joking".
It took every ounce of self control to not get up and deck her and now i have taken the anger home with me and it is eating away at me and i have no idea why.... so anyway I don't wanna go back to school anymore. It seems that I am supposed to be competitive or something and i am truely not that... there i was, so happy that no one failed a pretty stressful test, and someone felt the need to put me down. *sigh* just bitchin' and i suppose because this is all something i am so not used to.

KC I'm going to tell you something I told my kids when they were at school. As long as you do your best, it doesn't matter what everyone else says. You should be proud that you did so well, especially since it's been so long since you have done any sort of structured learning.

My daughter has come across this during her first year at university last year. So it's not just because you are maybe a bit older than the other students There will always be those who are envious of others' achievements.

I just want to say Congratulations on such great results, and next time with the answers go with your first ones they're usually the right ones!

Update: we ended up waiting until this afternoon as the young man with blue hair took longer than expected. We ended up eating pizza and watching him act out blue haired anime characters as he dried.

I can't see a real difference in mine unless I'm in the kitchen, under the clear lightbulbs. Then I see a hint more red than I had before. The guys claim it's somewhere between options 1 and 2. We'll have to try more pictures outside in natural light tomorrow. (It's dark out already here.) However, honey and egg whites are super good for your hair, so it's really soft and wavy right now, as opposed to frizzy. (The dry air from the heater KILLS my hair in the winter up here.) That part came out so good that I might use it that for conditioning every few weeks or so.

In other news from Casa Snowy y los Gatos; zelda likes guacamole. Without the potato chips. She's a very weird little kitty.

What a bitch. Ignore her - she'll always be the loser and she knows it.

Do you ever get to a point in your relationship with your PYL/pyl where you just feel *Lost*? Where you feel stagnant; where you feel that all your goals up to this point have been reached, but you know deep inside that your future goals and their future goals aren't going to be the same? Do you get to a point where you reach a fork in the road and you have to make a decision as a couple .... do we choose one path together, or do we go our separate ways and explore alone?

I feel as if I've reached a point of self awareness that has left me "alone". I've grown so much and evolved so much over the past 2 years, but I feel as if I've grown into someone He wasn't looking for. Our desires are different now, yet I wouldn't be the person I am today if He hadn't shown me how to grow, if He hadn't watered my seed and nourished me.

I'm confused. I'm depressed. I'm alone. *sigh*

 

[snowy ciara]

I haven't but I know a sub who has. He's reached a point where he's outgrown his PYL. They're still friends, but he's trying to figure out how to ask for release. I don't have any advice, just that I hope it works out okay.

[Sprinkles22]

Thank you, both, Snow and Furry for your concern and compassion. The situation is awkward at the moment between us, but we're trying to keep communication open and work through our issues. Neither of us wants to end the relationship, and we're certainly not on bad terms with each other; it's simply a matter of not knowing right now what comes next.

I am sick. If I find whoever gave K this cold (so that he could pass it on to me) I will hurt them.

Thanks. I just used the inhaler (which I hate), so hopefully my chest will stop hurting.

And you know my chest is hurting when I will use that evil thing. I hate my inhaler.
