    I saw a news clip last week about the proper way to wash and condition your hair and I feel so stupid now.  I've been doing it one way my whole life and now I have to change it!

  • I wash my hair like that, then right before I rinse I squeeze my hair to get the shampoo through to the ends.  I put eyeliner on wrong though.

    My 5 year old took a shower this morning for over 30 minutes.  I usually make her take a shower at night because it's hell getting her out of bed for school and she moves slower than a turtle, but last night we were out late and I just put her in bed when we got home.  She used ALL of the hot water (our tank is rated for a house with 8 people).  H had to take a freezing cold shower, and was not happy, I'm WFH today so I was able to wait. 

    I am dreading the day this kid becomes a teenager.

    I loved every minute of Divergent.  Although it wasn't perfect, I really did enjoy it!  Especially Theo James.  I may go back and see it again (and again, and again) just to see him.

    Is it like Sister Wives?  I've been hooked on that one, despite my husband's eye rolls.

    It is but the wives are much more whiny and disgruntled.  They aren't a big happy family working on mission statements and commitment ceremonies. It's kind of a hot mess but it's awesome.

    I love Sister Wives!! DH suffers thru it with me. The draw for me is that I'll never experience a life like that so it's interesting to learn about. I thought the first episode of My Five Wives seemed completely scripted. There is NO WAY all of those problems happened at the same exact time, but I understand what TLC was doing trying to show the different challenges they face.

  • I can't even watch one of those polygamy shows for even five minutes. I try SO HARD to say "it has no impact on your life so don't let it bother you" but the whole concept of polygamy is SO SEXIST that it makes me ragey to even think about it.
    I can see that.

    I guess I'm just very live and let live about it. They all know what they're doing (speaking specifically of the people on this particular show). It's a choice, it's not hurting anyone, and they seem happy. I think I find it interesting simply because it's so very different from my life, and it's hard to fathom how they make it all work day to day.

  • A guy my H works with is well-known for having affairs and being a general DB (his wife finally left after he set up house with another woman, they had a kid, and then he started seeing someone else on the side).  One of H's funnier comments was 'who has the time for all that? i can barely keep up with what's going on in one house!'

  • I just came up with a counterpoint to a conversation (argument) I had with my mother in law.  In August.

    I drank too much wine at book club last night and still feel sick. It makes me feel old old old.
    Can I marry them all?
