I just had to do it. I called this place I went before but the guy who did my hair before was gone. So I got a new person. Like they usually do, she insulted my curly hair. She said, "You're going to flat iron it?" Um, no. She also said, "So, you're cutting most of this off?" Um, no. For some reason it took seven requests...

Why do I do what I do?

I saw this woman. I know I should not talk to her for more than two minutes but she seemed sane, this time. Her dog was sweet. We got into a conversation.

She's basically been homeless and unemployed for over twelve years. She's a very intelligent Jewish woman who says she has graduate degrees, which she may have. Today, for the f...

military exercises, conspiracy

Sources in alternative media have warned of a possible false flag attack on the US by its own government.

Ordered five combs

Posted by Luminosity , in Personal 31 October 2013 -

We got through the summer o.k., but we've been having a series of hot muggy days where you can't do anything. Isn't that illegal? It's October . So I came here where it's air conditioned. Had a good meal and shared a table with a nice lady. On Sunday, I drank a beer . That never happens. I also ate creme brulee, chiffon cake and strawberries for dinner. I...
