Work has actually slowed down considerably in the last few minutes, so I'll see what I can get typed during the lull.
Today,
snowy_kathryn treated me to a professional hair shampooing, cut, and styling at a local spa. I had several inches artfully hacked from my tresses, and the results are pretty good. This morning, when I tipped my head back and squeezed my butt, I could pull my hair with my glutes. Pleasant image, hmm? Well now I'd have to dislocate either my head or my butt to do the same. My hair only skims just above the bottom of my ribcage, now. My hair is also straight again, which is a novelty. The curl and frizz will resume after its next washing, though.
And now for a group of links I've been perusing on my downtime....
Russian Scientists Develop Tablet to Prolong Drunkeness (sic): They don't want it to become a party drug. Fat chance.
Clerk assaulted with sausage: Daddy would you like some sausage?
2-year-old betrothed to man, 42: "A tribal council in Pakistan has ordered the betrothal of a 2-year-old girl to a man 40 years older to punish her uncle for an alleged affair with the man's wife." Lovely. I wonder what the hubby-to-be thinks of the deal?
Toads turning dogs into junkies: Back in my day, bad dogs sucked eggs. What is this world coming to?
'Artful' strippers escape censure: "A US strip club has managed to sidestep laws banning total nudity in public by offering customers the chance to make drawings depicting its dancers." Figure modelling meets stripping (thanks,
balthcat).
Man Tries to Toss Cigarette, SUV Ignites: Sucks to be him, but still, I wish people wouldn't throw their burning cigarettes out of cars. I've been burned before while cycling, and only you can prevent SUV fires.

I used to love the feel of my hair in
my bumcrack. Or someone else's hair.
I'm easy.

Or should that be "having a fit" as in "having a seizure?" I was going to say initially that Australian English had different words for things, but I guess they have different grammar as well.
