Monday night

Two weeks ago, I commented that I couldn't imagine the 80s styles coming back. I can see a certain coolness to the 70s sense of style, but the 80s? Worthless! Today, of course, I noticed that my very cute new hairstyle is not all that far from the feathered back hair of 1984. *laugh* It's quite different, but not completely dissimilar.

I've been very busy today but it doesn't really look like I did a whole lot around here. I fixed Brad's computer this morning, and this afternoon I spent hours working on price signs for the store. A LOT of price signs. I'll have more to print, but I need to take these down and get them up so I know what's missing. I went from Dad's price list, but there were some things that just weren't on there. I'm not entirely sure what I've gotten into, because you know, prices at a produce stand kinda change a lot. Perfectionist that I am, I also had to put cute little fruit clip arts on the sign to match the product. I need a life. Anyawy, I also printed twenty each of two different kinds of business cards. (Different designs, different content.) And a page that proclaims that we accept EBT cards. (Food stamps.) We don't, actually, yet, but we will be able to as soon as they (the state, not the parents) get around to activating it. I got to use my paper cutter, though, so I'm happy.

Tonight was even more busy. We had a very nice dinner out, because we didn't have any food. We then went to set up the computer for Brad.. but couldn't get the internet connection working.. so will probably have to go back and install a new modem tomorrow or soon. And we did the grocery shopping! Kinda unexpected, since we didn't leave Brad's until 9, and they live kinda far out.

Oh, and I plucked my eyebrows today and cursed men. I realized I was being illogical because there's not a single man of my acquaintance who cares if I have excess hair above my eyes, but it felt good at the time. :) Man, that hurts. *grin*

You are so brave to pluck your eyebrows! I haven't ever done it and probably never will do it b/c I can't stand pain. Plus when I was a teenager I read a Paula Danzinger book (is that her name?) and one of her characters plucked her eyebrows and it was a disaster and that's always stuck with me.

I'm with you Carrie! I just don't know how women can bear to do this. It must REALLY hurt!

[same-sky.livejournal.com]

It DOES! :) But I'm too much of a wuss to go get them waxed. Somehow, self-inflicted pain works better for me than quicker pain inflicted by others. :)

That's me, Kisha the Courageous. ;) It does hurt a lot, but I don't do the whole shaping thing. I just pluck the stray ones (on the bottom. Apparently you're not supposed to pluck from the top. Of course not, it doesn't hurt as bad there!) and thin them out a little. I figure that the shape they've got is fine with me.. and I have nightmares about hideous eyebrows, so I'm pretty cautious. ;)

Well, I have the world'd darkest bushies eyebrows (for a girl) so plucking is a must :P And actually, the ones that grow back don't seem to hurt nearly as much as the ones that have never been plucked before...

I should probably do it more than I do, but I'm so lazy, especially about inflicting pain, somehow. I've only done it a handful of times, but it seems that I don't need it as bad now. Anything that makes me have to pluck less often is a good thing. ;)

Erm.. not that I know of. I'm really not an expert on the subject, though. Sorry!
