It’s good advice

in advice

-R- asked what she could talk about with her hairdresser after finishing the hair-talk.  I suggest going straight for something personal to break the ice.  Something like “How’s the vagina?” or “So what’s your stance on home-made sex tapes?”

  2. I did have a hair dresser once that got a phone call in the middle of doing my hair and, after she hung up, informed me that her gynocologist had just given her some not-so-good news.

    I didn’t ask for her to elaborate. *shudder*

  6. There was a really popular hairdresser in the small town where I grew up. She wore really low-cut shirts and rubbed up against her male customers. I bet they didn’t need to talk about anything to break the ice.

  9. Margaret – You can totally say “fuck”. You can actually say any word your heart desires here. Except “fustrated”. “Fustrated” gets you banned.

  11. I never seem to know what to talk to my hairdresser about either. I can’t seem to break that barrier. I mean, she’s working FOR ME. Why should I talk to her?

Got an unexpected box in the mail labeled “for you to store eyeballs in” which is both terrifying and intriguing. A lovely hand-painted purse so I can carry my beastie with me everywhere.
Finally, Victor sets the record straight on his side of the story.
Amount of time it’s taken me to take down the Xmas tree this year - 5 months, 20 days.
Tried to sneak into this abandoned house near us but Victor wouldn’t let me bc of laws/snakes so instead I stood outside and then a vulture was like, “HI CAN I HELP?” and landed on the roof and I’m pretty sure that’s a dark magic invitation to go in.
