Hair needs a cut. It's looking a little weighed down and blah. I think I need to get a half decent conditioner again. The discount super value lines aren't working for me at the moment. Shiny hair isn't a big deal. Wanting shiny hair is... I don't know. Maybe it's something that it's OK to want. I'm losing touch with my permissions again.

I have more grey hairs these days. Odd how that works. A couple of early colonists arrived when I was 26, and for a few years that's how it was: a constant population of two or three gray hairs. Now it seems that was a mistake on the part of grey hair HQ. They'd forgotten all about those early pioneers, but after an exchange of telegrams and a little embarrassment, new settlers have arrived and booted the indigenous population right out of their own follicles.

even with relatively short hair these days, I love me some conditioner. (my grammar is the most awkward!) Having nice hair makes me feel better and motivated to leave the house.

I am far too amused by the colonization metaphor. I want to send tracts to your follicles.

As a white person, I probably shouldn't be making a little skit about colonialism...

about80% of me completely agrees and feels terrible for even suggesting it, but the other 20% of me routinely indulges in horrific humor about the non white migrant experience (maybe only 10%)

But then I think about the respected white lawyer at a national conference who implied all his Jamacian clients were potheads and Rastafarians and actually did a little 'impersonation'. Yeah that was awful. Never mind.
