Random things...

This greeting card phishing scam is driving me nuts. I think mostly because I want them to be real cards. :)

I have eaten a lot of hot/spicy foods today. I had some leftover sushi from dinner with my brother and his fiance and their friends last night. The Dream Roll has spicy seared tuna in it and a spicy lemon mayo sauce on top. I also had an assortment of pieces leftover from the group, including the dynamite roll. Tonight we were going to go to the Olive Garden for soup since Chas is sick, but the one by me was closed for some reason. We don't know if it is temporary or permanent thing, though there was a note on the door, so had we seen the note, we'd know. Anyhow, we went to Fiddler's Green instead, and I got the Wexford wings...mild of course, but that was spicy enough. :P In some way, even though it was pussy mild, I can't help but not think of my dad and his love for spicy food, and while it was an unintentional channeling of him, I think I have just had a bit of a spice bug as I have been stuffy and as Chas is sick I am trying to boost my body temperature and circulation to fight off any baddies waiting in the wings so to speak.

Had a most delightful chat with asinglemetaphor today during my lunch hour. I hope to do this more frequently. Things have changed in our relationship, and I value that we are still friends despite the mutual hardships we have both faced in the last year. I wish we could get together for our birthdays in late August as they are 2 days apart, but with present circumstances, I just don't see it happening. I do hope to be able to see her sometime this year or early next. :)

I had my hair trimmed on Saturday and alaso had it styled as I was going to my brother's engagement party that evening, and since it rained practically the whole day, we decided it was bet to curl my hair rather than straighten, as the curls would hold better in the humidity. She sprayed Paul Mitchell Freeze and Shine on the hair while being curled with the curling iron, and then followed up with Bedhead Hard Hat spray. My hair was so stiff, but to her credit, it did not fall or frizz as much as I had feared it might. However, I washed my hair last night since the curls were starting to fall and my hair was frizzing, but also lack of being able to run my fingers through my hair was maddening. I washed it 4 times and then used a bit of conditioner and as my hair was drying, there were still bits that dried crunchy. I used 2 different types of shampoo but I don't know what to do now. I think this may be the opportunity to try the no 'poo method with baking soda and apple cider vinegar (not together). I think that migh be enough to strip the rest of the gunk off. I can try at least. Though I think I may have read it leaves hair crunchy too, at first. Maybe I should re-read about it first.

This may be the most important part of this random post today, but..

I started HP7. Our friends Brian and Kenna have finished it and they (among others) really want me to read so they can chat with me, and while they know another friend of ours got me my copy, I haven't gotten it from her yet, so they loaned me their copy. I started yesterday, reading between calls and on lunch/breaks and a little last night, and again today the same way at work, and I am about 100 pages in so far. Not very far yet, but still firmly immersed. I hope to get more reading done tonight.

Well, guess that is all for now...all that I can think of so far.

I love sushi and haven't had it in a while. Especially sashimi. I use this garnier fructis leave in conditioner and when you apply that to wet hair, the hair can get crispy and hard like that, but its' very easy to get rid of :)

It's why i dont like using hairgel or spray unless i really have to since i don't like my hair feeling like a helmet haha. But it can look nice. :) Hope your hair is ok.

Leave in conditioner tends to leave my hair grimey rather than crispy but I know it will be ok in a week or so max.

Yeah thats another thing with it, but without anything my hair becomes a big fuzz ball lol.
i wish to see pics of your hair cut :)

I like that term "pussy mild". I might just start using that in conversations, like, "How are you doing?" "I'm feelin' pussy mild."

[plunkybug.livejournal.com]

I guess I should have said "wussy mild" but I dunno...just went with "pussy mild" in the end. :)

[realitystylist.livejournal.com]

I'll take pussy over wussy any day. I love pussy.

[plunkybug.livejournal.com]

I know you do love. :P

(Note to self:Reading Plunky's blog at 8:24 in the morning might melt the brain.)

Yes, very random. Leftover sushi. How come I just cannot grasp that concept. (however, if it doesn't kill you, it will make you stronger, or so the saying goes...) And the "pussy mild" conversation at the end of the comments just turned my brain into Velveeta. Yay! Off to work now...

I got myself some Lunapads. When I ordered, I thought, "Won't Plunky be proud of me!"

I haven't had occasion to try them yet, but that will be coming in the next few days.

Cool! I have become a bit of a pad whore in the last 6-10 months...I am quite addicted, and now have many beautiful pads! Here is my pad set (http://www.flickr.com/photos/plunkybug/sets/72157594187433678/) on Flickr. I don't use my Lunas much these days, mainly because my flow is too heavy for the pantyliners but the pads and liners seem like too much. I use AIOs (All In Ones) mostly these days, but I still think very highly of Lunapads. Good luck, and call or email or chat if you have any questions!
