WARNING - I am about to rant...
 
.
My hair - went for a cut & style yesterday. Had 5:15 pm appointment. Arrived at 5:20 - they know I walk over from my office and told me that if I ran 5 min late it would not be a problem. Upon arrival I was asked if perhaps 5:30 would be a better time for me. I told them that 5:15 was fine and that I had been delayed at work. My stylist informed me that my appointment was for 5 - told her since I got off work at 5 I would never schedule for that time. (I have their appointment card on my desk - been looking at it for 6 weeks and it clearly says 5:15) When she cut my hair she was obviously in a hurry. (As she started a friend of hers arrived and had to wait for her to finish, then they raced out the door.) Did not give me the style I asked for. Barely trimmed my hair, used no styling product except for some over-priced version of FrizzEase (not even hairspray!), blew out my hair and left. When I asked her to trim more off the top of my hair she got snippy (no pun) about it, snatching up her scissors and clipping away making sure to get as much hair as possible in my face. She also argued with me about the trim telling me that it as longer because she blew the curl out. I paid $40 plus a tip for this and she definitely did not deserve the tip. I paid for a cut & style and I got a trim. Definitely was oversharged. I could have gotten a better cut at a super cheap, you get what you pay for, type chain salon. My hair looked good until I stepped outside the salon. As soon as the wind hit it what little style there was disappeared and it flattened. She did not cut enough off my hair and as a result it flattens out. I am not supposed to be able to make a mini ponytail with the back of my hair. When I was there last month she took her time and actually styled my hair, used products to make it look good when she blew it out and took pride in her work. Guess I got in her way last night. Once they fix this tragedy I will have to look for another salon - I definitely won't be able to go back because she'll likely scalp me.

OK, ranting over. Thanks for letting me vent.

I had such a wonderful, fun, and relaxed day yesterday with my friend and her partner. I felt so loved. it's a friend that I never would have thought would become such a large source of support and love. it's a huge gift that I will do my best to treasure.

Mental Conditioning...
 
I spent so much time physically preparing for this trip that I was more than confident hitting the trail.

But mental conditioning was another thing.

I stayed out of the touristy areas and in the poorer sections of La Paz when I was in the city. And stayed in my tent in the country and the mountains while away from the city.

I wasnt mentally prepared for the sad, harsh conditions that I saw. Conditions that were so much more trying than what I saw in Argentina, Ecuador and Peru.

The most obvious hardship was the street level and field workforce, most visibly comprised of female and children. No school for the kids

The lack of potable water (thank you global warming) ; the utter lack of hope in the sustenance routine of making it through the day. Day after day after day. And the stray dogs, so many. I saw two get hit and heard another get hit. Dogs, dead by the roadside.

Pollution so thick from buses that it hung like a spectre of things to come. The taste of diesel and dirt and the offensive smells of open sewers that I cant seem to get out of my nose...and I've been blessed with 2 showers since getting home at 4 am.

The mountain climbing was a cakewalk, compared...

What is on my mind...
 

The heat and what the homeless are doing to survive this.

Cancer.

Pain in my heart and soul.

When you go back, I wouldn't let her cut it. That's what management is for. I had this happen too. I finally found a stylist I thought did an okay job with my hair and she did...two times previously...then on what turned out to be her last day...she did a piss poor, suck ass job.

She was distracted and kept getting interrupted and I didn't have the balls at the time to say "I want a stylist. I am paying for a stylist. If you are not going to act like a stylist, then I want another one. Now."

I wouldn't have that problem today. :blink:

Just thinking about My future, and how I'm finally almost healed up enough to start living :thumbsup:

We are on day 6 of medicating 13 kitties without any fatalities to them or their human slaves. 4 more days of medicine and the 2 obvious sickees get to go back to the vet for a check up. We're hoping for a really good outcome from this medicine. I'm so tired of crawling under the bed, the desks, the cabinet in the living room and any other place they think they can hide when we start rounding them up.

Ryobi 06-23-2010 10:57 PM

I'm going to hang on to this full beard I've grown for a while. I'll shave it when it finally becomes so hot (and I break out) that I can't stand it......or someone at work cracks down on me because of the respirator masks we have to wear. :|

Sometimes, when life is difficult, out of the darkness comes an oasis in the form of another human being and sometime that person is exactly what you need.

JustBeingMe 06-24-2010 11:37 AM
