I just started [a thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=16574214#post16574214) about my hair dilemma complete with pictures of the good, the bad, and the ugly. All advice welcome. šŸ™‚ ---

No curls for me. My hair has a tiny bit of wave is all, Iā€™m the one who wants to put more curl in not contain what is there. Thank you **Sario** I never knew I could down load the print option and it worked. Now if I could just find a way to sign online without using docusign. I sent the letter to my self to see if I could sign it with the s-pen on my phone but I donā€™t think itā€™s working. Iā€™ll just have to wheel my desk over to the printer and print it out, sign it, scan it and email it. I typed out the letter but I think I will just go back and write the whole thing by hand and scan to the puter. ---

N.O.L. has been et (leftovers from last nightā€™s dindin) and ā€˜tis raininā€™. Itā€™s a real frawg strangler. I can hear ā€˜em croakinā€™ even. šŸ˜ƒ **Spaz** the _rule_ is there must be an unopened _twelve pack_, preferably two but I let folks skate with one, of tp at all times. :dubious: šŸ˜› Ok, if you change banks and then ā€œforgetā€ to tell payroll until the day before payday so your deposit can be routed to the right account, you donā€™t whine to me. I am not payroll. You best be on the phone to payroll to see if you can get your direct deposit routed to the right account. No I cannot do that for you. Itā€™s your account, not mine. No, I will not even if you give me your account information and why would you want to give out such information to begin with. This is your responsibility, not mine. Sigh. This is but an example of the whineage da bear has endured today. Tonight will be a definite forage for dindin night. ---

Honestly, it doesnā€™t seem to matter what the weatherā€™s doing- it can be lovely and sunny for hours, but as soon as I go to do some gardening, the rain startsā€¦ Feeling slightly smug at the moment- I applied for a job a week or so ago, and got an instant rejection email, on the grounds that I wasnā€™t qualified- except I wasā€¦ So I decided to argue, told them theyā€™d made a mistake, and today I got offered an interview. Even if nothing comes of it, rejecting a rejection letter pleases me šŸ˜ƒ Shame the interviewā€™s over an hourā€™s drive away- the job wonā€™t be, but I think the company is expanding to here, and doesnā€™t have an office in the city yet. I shall see if I can get the jobcentre to pay fuel money. They might do. Oh, and **Spaz**? Legolas. I rest my case. šŸ˜‰ ---

So what have I done today? Almost absolutely NOTHING!!! Oh sure I irked for 2 hours, should have been 4, and wrote a few emails but other than that I have done zilch, zip, nada, nothing. I have things to do, I look about me at the mess that is my room, the mail that needs to be sorted, the dog who needs his ear cleaned, the clothes that should be put away, the dirty bowl from lunch, the letter that needs to be scanned and still I do nothing. I am so enjoying doing nothing that I may continue to do ā€¦ nothing. Although typing about doing nothing is doing something, however to figure that out requires thinking and I donā€™t feel like doing that neither. ---

Urgh. Maintenance is trying to cope with a clogged kitchen sink. Again. We also need to clean up the mess from our own efforts to fix it, including polishing a stainless steel sink that got a bit etched by drain cleaning gunk. I had to miss out on my normal Thursday volunteering to deal with this. ā˜¹ Some good news: two packages arrived, both a little earlier than I expected. šŸ˜ƒ ---

I am the model of TP sparage! šŸ˜ƒ \*\*FCD \*\*was out on the town for 4 hours on his bike, and heā€™s got a HOG meeting tonight, so Iā€™ll be without adult supervision for supper and after. Iā€™ve been remaking texting mitts - most of the ones I got back are really big, so Iā€™m unraveling them into individual balls of yarn and remaking them smaller. Iā€™m hoping the smaller ones will sell better - Iā€™m sure they will. Iā€™ll also make some shorter but broader ones in dark colors - the manly mitts! šŸ˜ƒ All of those sold last year. I also stenciled my last 2 towels. Tomorrow, Iā€™ll buy more blank towels and hem them. Iā€™ll see if I can come up with some Christmas stencils and make some holiday towels. Iā€™ve got a bunch of cookie cutters that I can trace to make my own stencils. So I need to get a bunch of red, green, and yellow/gold fabric paint as well. I am inspired!! ---

I have to get ready to go pet sitting. Iā€™m not sure what time I want to go. I have to work 6-9 but Iā€™d like to go at 8. Before 6 is too early and I donā€™t want to go after 9. Maybe Iā€™ll just go and work from there. Decisions decisions ---

I went to work today. I ate lunch alone. I thought there would be other people that I knew there in the lunchroom. but there wasnā€™t anyone I knew. Just a few people I didnā€™t know. Oh, and Mr. Sleepy Guy was back, but he was, you know, asleep. šŸ˜› I cleaned some computers at work today. Didnā€™t do much else.
