Don't Stand on That, You'll Break It

slap some glitter on me and call me a vampire!

Maybe it's my appreciation for young-adult fiction, or my love for the macabre, or maybe I can just relate because of my pasty whiteness, but I love the Twilight series.

Well, I love the books. The movies are fun because I love the books.

Here's my problem with the movies: Kristin Stewart and Rob Pattinson. Kristin looks like she's constipated and Rob looks like he's about to cry. All the time.

Plus, as much as I love the ever-so-cheesy, tortured-lovers-destined-to-be-together storyline, it's kinda laughable on film. Like the awkward moaning/kissing scene in New Moon. Oh jeez.

But, even though I have my qualms, this Saturday night you will find me in line at midnight to see Eclipse. And I will probably giggle, and maybe even sigh, more than once.

"mom, there's bugs in my hair"

The other day, I was doing this lady's hair who had brought her 3 daughters in also. About halfway through her blow-dry, some one came over and said, "Ma'am, is that your daughter over there in the green shirt?" It was. "Well, we can't do her hair; she has lice."

SICK.

Here's the thing, I know this happens. You don't have to be a dirty person to get lice. I remember my elementary school had several lice epidemics. But if you or your child happen to get lice (heaven forbid) don't even bother bringing them into a salon. There isn't a stylist in the world who would run the risk of getting those pesky critters all over their equipment, station, clothes, and themselves, just to give you a trim. We're just a school, and we make people leave, even halfway through a service, if we find lice.

Its suicide.

You better believe I sprayed down everything I own with heavy-duty disinfectant spray that day. Hospital strength, man.

this is serious.

Go here.

Follow the directions.

Now.

You will not be sorry.

Ok, ok, I know I've talked about this before. But it's really important. I really care alot about this. Please, for your own sake, do it!

i'm gonna wash that tile right outa my hair...

last night, as I relaxed in the shower, the unthinkable happened. The shower fell apart. The soapdish and some tile just crumbled and fell off the wall to reveal a stinky, moldy piece of what seems to be cardboard behind it.
