Inquiring minds, and nosy buggers everywhere, want to know! > > 😕 I don’t have the faintest idea what she just said. 😕 UB? LJ? Ummm…good hijack. Really. I’m pretty sure this would be off-topic no matter _where_ you posted it. 😉 \*\* What did she ask? Well, she’s right in that it had a subject / indirect object / direct object / verb. And this should by rights probably be kept private. So I’ll email you about both the question and the answer. Okay… to alleviate your confusion… UB = UnaBoard LJ = LiveJournal Happy now? 🙂 (and yes, when I say I’ll email people, I generally get to it within a few days unless there are circumstancesw which I cannot control) F\_X ---

I got my eyebrows waxed for the first time yesterday - didn’t hurt as much as I thought it would. Glad I decided to start with brows though - I think having other places done first would have been a little too freaky. Susan ---
