random catch-up since my birthday

[lishd]

as much as i begged, there was unfortunately no palanquin this year, but joe threw me a lovely belated birthday party with christopher, mika, travis, girlgoth & magnus, landon & his girl, & cowgoesmootwice. we went to shiro's for sushi, where i'd never been. (it's right across the street from marrakesh, so we've never noticed it due to marrakesh tunnel vision &/or

Sweet hopping baby jebus. I wandered here through Awesome Modifications, btw. The amount of work that you put in getting the matches in 4g (or close matches, like companion cube vs. anger core!) is amazing.

Dare I ask how much you paid for the Chinese brecciated jasper keystone blades? I probably don't, in fact, dare, but if you want to satisfy my curiosity, that would be okay. :D

haha, thanks. it's really a fun little hobby, & a challenge on the painted ones!

not that much, actually, but if/when they go up for sale, it'll be at auction.

Happy late birthday and anniversary!

Your hair is amazingly long, lish. I wonder how much it has to weigh at that length and thickness?

[lishd]

thanks, darlin'.

probably less than i think, maybe just a couple pounds. at six years is when dreads double in weight to brushable hair of the same length, so that's coming up soon, heh.

That is a long time on one set of dreads. My hair is very fine now, but back when it was thick and long, we tried to weigh it the best we could. When it was waist length it weighed 5 pounds. Of course my ponytail was also as thick as my wrist back then, also, my neck hurt all the time.

Now, I cannot leave my hair alone. I'm growing it out from my last head shaving for St. Baldrick's, but I am so bored with it. It is even brown. I haven't had just straight brown hair since I was 18.

you can't really weigh hair while it's attached to you - you end up pushing down on the scale in some way. i doubt my set weighs more than a couple pounds; i sincerely doubt brushable hair would get that heavy when dry.

Hey Lish,

I hate to leave this on one of your normal entries, but I wanted to let you know right away and I can't send you a PM because privacy options.

We, the faculty at my university, did NOT get paid today. Someone in the payroll office gave me bad information before, apparently. I am obviously very pissed, and w/r/t our transaction, I am wondering:

1. Can you hold the whole pile until the end of the month, with my 100% commitment?

2. If you need to make money on the other stuff before then, I totally understand, but would it still be possible to get just the bloodwood flowers? I've been waiting so much for those...

3. If you need to sell the whole pile including the flowers before then, I totally understand also.

It's totally up to you. Please let me know what's best for you. I am so sorry about this, but I previously talked to a human being in the Payroll office who fucked up my financial life by giving me the wrong information.

ffffffffuuuuuuuuu

#1 is completely fine by me. don't even worry about it, & thanks for the great communication. :)

[just_the_ash]

Likewise! Sorry for the Derpy Hooves moment... of course I should have checked your profile! :)
