Mar. 2nd, 2019 02:24 pmYesterday:
I feel extremely head-cold-y today, which is particularly unwelcome because I want to go to class tomorrow goddammit and also because I got my hair cut this morning and it looks really fucking fine.
I've never thought of my hair as curly before. Wavy or curly. It's always been straight to me, with an annoying tendency to do funky things when wet. But my old stylist was there (she's moved out of the state but came back for a visit) this morning and I walked in with annoying, wet hair and she went "Oh! Your hair's in curls! We could do a thing?" And it's hair, as long as it doesn't get any major length taken off of it I am up for what the fuck ever, it's hair, it'll fade back or grow out or deflate or whatever, so I say "sure let's" and suddenly I have curls to befit an 80s hair band. I'm seriously considering going back tomorrow and saying "okay, what products did you use, what's my at home routine to do this, explain to me the mystical ways of Curls On Purpose."
(It's very weird to have never thought of your hair as curly until you're almost fucking forty. Very, very weird.)
The biggest problem with this plan is that it may require getting a couple new hair care products, which are inevitably expensive. But it's not like that's an immediate or actual need, that can wait till a couple weeks down the line as long as I remember what the hell they are and how I'm using them.
Today:
No, I did not go to class. I got home and couldn't stop sneezing and it just got worse from there, and this morning when I woke up even after going to bed on time and on drugs I felt like hell. So no class for me today and possibly no game if I don't recover well enough. I slept... I woke up for about an hour to eat something at the insistence of the boy, and then passed back out again. All told from a bit before midnight until noon-thirty.
I did get back to the hair stylists, said hi, chatted with everyone there, and got the name of the one product it turned out to be and confirmation that it was just the basic things she'd done to it at the salon, which I can do at home. I like a routine that only requires me buying one new product! And that was good but possibly running around in the rain yesterday worsened the cold. Or, hell if I know, it might just be a bad bug that the boy brought home from the hospital.
Anyway. Today I'll be lucky if I get anything done other than sitting on the couch and reading books and articles about beauty routines. I might get some writing done. I have no idea if I'm going to make it to game or not. Plus side is the boy didn't get much sleep and he's running the game, so it'll be a short game if I do go. And it's a head cold, so it won't get that bad. I hope. I'm just still profoundly annoyed that, sick. I was going to finish solidifying my routines, beauty, exercise, music, writing, everything. And now sick. And ugh.
