I woke up with a chin tattoo

Last night I dreamed that I was in the military, and I was in Indonesia for some reason. I woke up stuck in a tree with some guy from my unit, and I had something tattooed on my chin. It looked like an advertisement. Luckily it was yellow and white, so not way too noticeable. We were too high in the trees to climb down safely by ourselves. Eventually a forest ranger type man who looked like Joel Grey helped us down. I demanded that we be taken to the airport to get the hell out of there. I was over it.

So on the airplane on the way home, some officer dude walked around collecting everyone's surveillance boxes. We had these little plastic box things in which we were supposed to store pics and recordings of things we'd surveilled on our missions. I had forgotten to activate mine, so all that surveilling I had done in the forest was for NOTHING. Chin tattoo? FOR NOTHING. I handed him my empty box to delay the inevitable. It would be another couple of hours before he found out it was empty, and by that time I could have a good excuse made up, or have given myself some food poisoning. Perhaps claim insanity, who knows.

Then I woke up.

Hair stuff now

Serum

While I'm on a free-advertising-for-my-favey-brands kick, may I please to recommend to you the Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Serum?

This stuff is like 20 bucks a bottle, but it lasts for freaking ever. My hair is shoulder length now, and I only need about half a squirt of the stuff, as it is super concentrated. It really does make your hair dry faster, too, that's not lie. It sort of freaked me out at first. Now I just roll with it. It's especially nice when it's chilly out and the wet hair needs to dry up fast before you catch your death of cold. Also, this shortens the amount of time you're blowing hot air on your head, so there's less heat damage.

AS WELL, it adds quite a bit of shine and softness to ye olde mop. My hair is wavy and poofy, a little strange, turning gray (ack!) and this serum makes it look a little more like real hair.

IN CONCLUSION, it's worth the cash. One bottle can last me about a year, and it works.

I like that Soap & Glory stuff

Soap & Glory

I love this stuff. It's at Target, and it seems pricey compared to other Tarjay stuff, but if you think about it, it's the exact same price range as Bath and Body Works, but you get more in the toobs. Plus it's better than B&BB, in my humble but accurate opinion.

I especially recommend the

Soap and glory

body wash stuff. It's got lotion in it, and makes for a wonderful shaving experience. It smells nice, it's full of natural ingredients, the packaging is adorable, and it lasts forever and ever. TRY IT NOW!!!!!!!

I'm easily manipulated by the colors pink and red, but luckily it worked out well in this case. It's the packaging that originally sold me. Then came the guilt. Then the relief and pleasure.

p.s. I bought the aluminum free deodorant of theirs yesterday, and so far so good. I'm not too keen on slathering poisonous metals, such as the aluminum contained in most antiperspirants, on myself, so I try to get natural thingies that don't have that. Don't trust the "hypoallergenic" tag on some brands, though. A lot of aluminum free deodorants use zinc ricinoleate which is something that causes an allergic reaction anywhere on MY skin, that's for sure. If I rub that stuff on me, within minutes there will be what feels and looks just like a bad sunburn, and it takes just as long to heal. Ever had a sunburn on your armpits? Not cool. Hypoallergenic my arse! ANYWAY...the Soap and Glory aluminum free deodorant has NOT caused any allergic reactions on my retardedly sensitive skin, so, YAY!!

Hey! Was that TMI? HA!

Check out my onesie

I got some red onesie pajamas that have a butt flap in the back for easy access. I was probably drunk when I ordered them. There was one of 'em googley ads at the top of my gmail the one night telling me I needed some. Ok, I said.

I am actually quite pleased with my Adult Footed Pajamas purchase. I may crank the AC just so I can wear these without sweating to death.

Well, there was a toga party crossing the street one fine night in Austin TX, a bunch of douches wrapped in white sheets, so I thought I'd take a pic. It turned out kinda cool I think. Probably because you can't see the toga douches.

I dreamt about the Opera for chrissakes

I'm going to see La Boheme next week, and apparently I'm way too excited about that, because last night I dreamed they canceled La Boheme and put on another show instead, and I was PISSED. AND they didn't tell anyone, they just had some other crap going on instead, and I had to ask around to figure out that it wasn't some pre-show jizz, but the actual replacement performance. That better not happen in real life. It better NOT. Plus the show they did wasn't even classical type, it was a new Broadway musical, and it totally sucked. It was one of those things where the actors bust through the Third Wall and walk out into the audience to include us in their songs. Ugh every time that happens I try to do my best invisible girl impersonation. It didn't work in my dream. I was resting my head on my arms on the seat in front of me (which was empty because half the audience left) (and the other half was walking around and talking) and one of the performers, some guy who needed to shave and was wearing a blue hoodie, walked right up to me and asked me to stand up, and he gave me a hug. I could feel his armpit sweat on my sleeveless arms, for I was wearing a formal dress for this mess. I was polite about it though entirely displeased. Afterwards I swore on your mom's grave I'd be emailing in for a refund.

Am I mean for laughing at this

Orange dudes

Here is a picture of some tribesmen aiming arrows at a plane. Is this even for real? And if so, isn't it a bit irresponsible to fly airplanes where these people can see them? What if they sacrifice someone to the rumbling metal birds? You know how primitives are. Whatever happened to the Prime Directive? So many questions. Such as: How would we feel if we found out that aliens were real and they had this huge crazy world with cures for everything and everyone lived in the lap of luxury but they hid it from us because they thought we were nothing but dumb and vaguely interesting? And what if those UFOs were the aliens taking pictures of us to put on alien versions of CNN for alien versions of me to laugh at? I'd be pissed. Someone send these dudes some iPods stat. Actually, $10 says these red people have Wii Fit on pause in their huts while they pretend to be frightened and confused by our boopy clicky growlies in the sky so the likes of us will leave them alone. Man, I want to join a tribe.
