I just leave mine to dry naturally. It annoyed me when it was short because it kept getting in my eyes and mouth! much easier keeping it in a ponytail.


message 4352: by Tati (new)

Tati I don't have the time to let it dry naturally, as I shower at around 8 p.m. (can't do that earlier, as I get home at 7:30, eat, feed the dog, get a load of laundry going...), and I go to bed at around 9 p.m. (I wake up at 4:30 a.m. to go to work)...

I do the same thing, wash it at 8ish, then leave it to dry until I go to bed at 10.
Getting up at 4.30 to go to work sounds like torture!


message 4354: by Tati (new)

Tati I got used to it... I do get sleep one hour while commuting, though.

But when you go to bed, your hair is still moist, isn't it?

Abi (abi_gr) | 27659 comments I let mine dry naturally too.

My hair annoys me sometimes because it's long, but then if i cut it, i regret it because it end up annoying me more!

I suppose it might be a bit damp, it's never really bothered me though. If I cut it short it gets in my eyes, and I end up having to straighten it because the slight curl gets accentuated without the weight to keep it down. I end up with bits sticking out all over the place.


message 4357: by Tati (new)

Tati That's the thing, I can't stand to go to bed with damp hair LOL

I've been checking some haircuts, and I quite like Emma Watson's, after her pixie crop grew out a bit.

Beatrice (beatricemasalunga) I've watched Spectacular Now a while ago.. haven't read the book and it quite gave me mixed feelings. I love and hate it at the same time.

I blow dry mine every day, but I don't really mind. It only takes me about 10 minutes too, but I use a styling brush and firm hold foam to style it as I dry it, so my hair is completely done in 10 minutes. I think I really enjoy styling it now though because I spent years with "mommy hair." My kids are grown enough now that I can finally take the time to style my hair.

I think you're entitled to have 'mommy hair' when you're trying to raise three boys! I'd have mommy hair forever if I had 3!


message 4363: by Jalyn (new)

Jalyn (jalynnie) | 3827 comments I had my wallet stolen on Tuesday and I've been in a horrible mood since. I'm so paranoid about everyone and just plain mad that somebody had the nerve to steal MY things. The whole process of getting justice, though started (and looking like it will work out), is really lengthy and I just want the POS who stole from me to be rotting behind bars now. I hate not feeling safe :(

It helps that two of them are in school full time. I only have to worry about one of them now while I get ready, and he goes to preschool 3 days a week, so really it's only two days that he's with me while I'm getting ready.

Yeah :( I'm so upset over the whole thing. It happened at work and they actually went into our back room and took our wallets. I work in a mall, so when other mall employees found out, they told us that in another store, some guy was hiding in a back room once when an employee walked in on him. Now I'm just all sorts of freaked out!

They should really provide you with lockers!


message 4369: by Tati (new)

Tati I would be freaked out too!

Jalyn (jalynnie) | 3827 comments Sarah wrote: "They should really provide you with lockers!"

I know, but there really isn't anywhere to put them. Every wall and even the middle of the floor is covered with shelves for all of the books, and we still don't have enough space for them. We're getting a mirror for us to better see the back half of the store, and they're installing a door chime for the back room, so at least now we'll know if anyone goes back there. Lockers would be better though.

I'll probably leave things at home. My car probably isn't too safe either. The parking lot isn't very well lit or watched where we park.

That doesn't sound like the best car park either ☹

I'm the same way and I'm 13 books behind. I'm on break starting 4/14 from my student teaching during the day but have class two nights. I'm hoping I can get a lot of reading done during the day.


message 4378: by Heather (new)

Heather | 10157 comments I am only 9 books behind schedule now though


message 4379: by [deleted user] (new)

Good job Heather! I think I need to read some smaller books to help me!


message 4380: by Heather (new)

Heather | 10157 comments I agree! I am reading The Darkest Minds now and I just finished The Book Thief tonight

It means that you are on course to read more than you challenged yourself to read. so if you challenged yourself to 12 books, but you've already read more than 4, then you would be ahead of your goal ☺

I get like that. If I don't write the reviews as soon as I finish reading it's really difficult to find the motivation.

Darn! Kerrang radio keep playing 'Knights of Cydonia' which always makes me want to play guitar hero because it's my nemesis song - I've only ever managed to get through it once on Hard Guitar. So annoying!

Goodreads was totally offline for hours yesterday, nobody could get on, and there's nothing you can do about it if it happens again.

You can check their twitter feed here though - https://twitter.com/goodreads
as they will usually tell you on twitter that the site is offline and they are working on it.
