Sakina: Thanx, sistah.    The trim went well, but as far as visiting with my grand-père, it has been minimal. He's mostly been spending time with my parents. 

Weekend Stuff: Yep, I did get a 1" trim. My new length is 25½" and I hope to see some growth before this month is over. 
    Our weekend guest/family friend went home sick yesterday morning. Walking pneumonia, she presumes. And my sister just came down with the flu. My parents had to pull her out of work yesterday because her idiot boss wasn't going to let her go.    She went to urgent care and got some antibiotics...should be better in a few days.
    And on Friday night, drummer boy finally called. His pitiful excuse for basically ignoring me all week was that he was [ticked] off and didn't want to talk to anyone.  

Boys, Boys, Boys: K called last night to ask about my sister's condition and tell me that he still loved me. Balderdash! He didn't love me to begin with!    We ended up texting back & forth for over an hour, like we used to do when we were dating. He said that he hasn't been able to see anyone else because he thinks of me constantly. And instead of hard-lining him, I broke down, poured my heart out and cried like a [censored] sissy.  
    All this while I was waiting to hear back from drummer boy, who seems to be neglecting me once again, and after spending hours in a chat with Mr. Michigan (aka: Mr. Clueless/The Distant One). It was like revenge of the old flames.    The Angel Dumped Me Club must have been having a party or something...pretty wild night. 

Hair: Needless to say, this morning, I felt more than the usual need to clarify. And wash. A lot. Perhaps I should have rinsed a little less or conditioned a little more because with the dry weather, both my hair and skin are freaking out today. I can't even comb (LOL I almost typed "bomb") my hair to detangle it because the static just creates more tangles. Figure I'll save the combing (or bombing, if I get frustrated enough) for my break when I can just braid and forget it. 

St. Patty's Day: I was going to bring some green curling ribbon to tie around my braid today, but forgot. I usually don't give much thought to wearing green on St. Patty's Day. I figure that being half Irish kind of makes me exempt.    But after a few people at work inquired about my lack of greenage, I took a green felt tip pen and drew an X on the inside of each of my wrists. I kind of dig the irony of being an Irish straight edger.    No green beer for me, thanx. 
    Today is my father's birthday, however (good thing his favorite color is green). My grandfather and his gf are coming over and we're apparently having pork for dinner.    Rephrased: Everyone else is having pork and I will have whatever's left. Well...maybe a little pork. Maybe.

Hair: CWC with ACV rinse before the final conditioning. My last 2 vinegar rinses have been with ACV, actually. I'm giving it another shot. Why not?
    Hair is a bit gummy today from the leave-in crème, but I'd rather it be gummy than staticky, as it otherwise would be. 

Pet Peeves: Indeed, I have a few. And one of them is conceit. People who think, for whatever reason, that they are all that and a box of gritz. A step (or ten) above the rest. And can't manage to get over themselves. 
    Another one is people who stand way too close...usually while waiting in a line of some sort. I always want to say something to people like these...and never do. *sigh*
    God just didn't give me enough arms for the people I'd like to smack on a daily basis.  

Other: Day 4 not hearing from drummer boy. No calls, no texts, nada. I've heard of being busy, but people can be busy and still have enough consideration to acknowledge people who care about them. Perhaps he's still having his little emo tantrum.    Whaaatever. I'm not going to wait around.
    My dad had a good b-day yesterday.    There was salad, baked potatoes, garlic bread and pork. I only had a leeettle bit of pork...gave the rest to my dad. Oh, and ice cream cake. And mother & I entertained our out-of-state company with stories from our work.
    Oh bugger, I totally just wrecked my manicure.

Trisha: lol    The sad thing is that probably wouldn't work. 

Hair: WCC routine. 

Skin: Absolutely freaking out, it's so dry. The stinging and itching actually kept me up a bit last night.   So, I went to the store and picked up 4 new suuuper moisturizing bodywashes and 2 new facewashes for sensitive skin. Gotta love Santa Ana weather.  

Dating: Has become a joke. 5 days and not so much as a text from drummer boy. I'm giving him until the weekend before I call him and tell him we're done.  

Other: My little sis is recovering well from the flu. She went to the ranch and worked the horses with my dad & grandpa today. Her bf has also been around and he doesn't seem to be falling ill himself, so this is a good sign. Speaking of him, he seems to be a great guy. Treats my sister like gold. I kind of wish that I could find someone like him. 

Also, I have discovered the secret to wearing multiple earrings when the 1st holes require disc backs. It probably sounds complicated, and it was! I had to wrestle with the things to get them to lay right, but it paid off in the end.    I'm wearing jet drop earrings  by 1928 in the 1st holes and black crystals in the 2nd and 3rd. I love having 3 in each ear! Coordinating multiple earrings with my outfits is so much fun! 

Alright, time to see what else is on the net today. Ciao!

They most certainly do, Sakina.  

So...morning shift on the vernal equinox. Meh. Could be worse. 
Wait, it is worse. Working the morning shift means that I have to wake up at 5 am. Not cool! And the vernal equinox means that my favorite season is now officially over. I've not heard from a certain musical dufus in Fire for 6 days...and as if all of that weren't bad enough, my parents have claimed the majority of my tax return to insure my car.    No savings for me!

Aaand without savings, I can kiss things that I've desperately needed for months goodbye. Such as a dentist appointment and a new pair of Ariats. Grrrrrr...
    So yeah, life pretty much sucks right now.    Not that that's anything new.

In hair news, did the usual CWC routine today and noticed something. The little wisps of hair left over from when I severed a lock and sent it to a former sweetheart last year are now long enough to get leave-in conditioner when I apply it.
    It's fascinating how Nature manages to recover itself over time with a constant flow of growth and change. When forests are destroyed, new plants and trees grow in place of the old...at least some of the time. When the air is polluted, a good rain purifies it. When a starfish loses a limb, it grows a new one. And naturally, hair grows back. And why shouldn't it? If the same plants are able to blossom and produce fruit year after year, shouldn't animals have the same regenerative abilities? Such a resilient little planet we live on. hehe Uh oh, Angel's getting philosophical again...she must be tired.  

Work is busy, but I'm staying on top of it. Had to do commission this morning, but everything went off without a hitch. Helped a few people within the company with little things. All in addition to my regular receptionist duties, of course. And eavesdropping once in awhile on the Fire division, barely hoping to catch a glimpse of my (former) crush.  

*sigh* Indeed, it has come to that. Seems he's pretty good at putting out fires.

I also had to be up at 5 am this morning to sub a 6:30 am yoga class. I'm pretty non-verbal until 9 or 10 am sooo not fun. We'll survive though, won't we! Sorry about your dufus.

Thanx, amigas.  

Hair: The usual WTC routine for Friday. Today's treatment lasted almost an hour and a half! Hair is air drying at the moment and that's as far as it goes until I get home from work. Somehow, I managed to drive to work without my purse today    so I am without a comb or hairtie or anything. These things are the least of my worries.  

Fashion: Daaahling! Got a few new accessories @ Claire's in the mountains yesterday. Fishnet glovelets, silver toe rings and a few other "gothy" rings. One of which is a mood ring that I've had on pretty much ever since. It fascinates the heck out of me.  

Other: Spent another late night texting with "the illustrious K" who claims that he still loves me.    For whatever reason, this gave me the courage to text drummer boy this morning and ask just how long he planned to ignore me. Shockingly, I got a response!    Apparently, he's just been extremely busy with band stuff.    
Boys.

Hair: Clarifying day. The usual routine, ACV rinse, no leave-in's, yada yada. 

Work: Busy today. My monitor died shortly after I arrived this afternoon, so my boss brought in a temporary replacement. And I've just finished a special assignment for my other boss.  

Fashion: Bought a cute tank top at the outlet center in the mountains on Saturday. It has lace, ruching and little buttons...a nice little addition to my summer goth wardrobe for about $13.  

Freaking Boys:    So I've officially given up on drummer boy, which is a shame. I really liked him. But I wasn't a priority to him at all. 
    Also been texting with K on a daily basis.    I miss certain things about him, but talking to him again has only reminded me why parting company was the best decision. 
    *sigh* There just aren't any good ones left.  

Other: My grandfather & his gf left last night to return home. Easter was ok...I stayed home all day doing laundry and sprucing up my room. 
    Yesterday was the 2 year anniversary of my paternal grandmother's death. God bless her.

Trisha: The further I wade into the bog, the less I believe in the existence of a daisy field. 

Hair: The usual CWC routine. 
Lately, I've been terrible with taking my hair, skin & nails vitamins. It seems to be pretty sporadic. I'll take them every day for a few days, then forget for a few days, and so on. They don't seem to have any effect on the growth or condition of my hair from month to month anyway, so I don't suppose it's a huge deal.

Fashion: The new manicure has been holding up pretty well since Sunday, but the color is decidedly not goth. It's a Sally Hansen shade called Wholesome Earth, which is more of a dark, reddish berry.

Other: Once again, I'm resisting the urge to run back to K. If for no other reason than being entirely straight edge now. I love the X more than I love any guy at the moment, so I must try not to do anything to jeopardize that. Dating a bartender who smokes would surely be a step in the wrong direction.
