Step Into the Nexus · Stimulation is the Goal

Everyday, someone in a truck drops off about eleventeen heathens next door. What the hell is going on next door, some kind of indoor summer camp? Either that or they must all be cousins who really enjoy each other’s companies :eh: I’ve labeled them as heathens because I’m tired of them eating their damn candy in the front yard and having candy wrappers every where. Who is the damn MOD over there? I need to find out. If it keeps up, I plan to say a word or two to the children. I’ll be nice… at first. I’ll even politely ask them to pick up after themselves or just not eat the candy in the front yards in the first place. They must be taking it easy inside today instead of running amok outside. I haven’t seen them outside all day. I wonder if these heathens were the same ones who were popping fire works from dusk to dawn on July 4, 5 and 6. :roll:

I’m supposed to be getting my hair braided today… I’m still waiting on the status of that. You know, I haven’t had my hair relaxed since November 2003 and you can really tell by looking at my hair. My hair isn’t nappy, but it is very thick. I stopped going to the hairdresser four weeks ago. The reasons why include: as a pregnant woman, my tolerance for waiting to be seen had decreased… I feel that if my appointment is at 9am, I better be seen at 9am (although it just doesn’t quite work like that in 99.97% of black hair salons) and my hair is so thick now that if I get it washed, blow dried and curled with the iron, within one hour after walking into the Saint Louis humidity, my curls start to fall.

The most recent time that I got my hair done really sucked because it was actually looking good for a couple of days then BAM it rained in the middle of the week. I didn’t get wet :relieved:, but the humidity frizzled my hair up like I was from the Mother Country. I was heated. :rant:

Anyway, I really need my hair braided because I’m tired of putting it up in ponytails. Ponytails are no good for my hair anyway since it causes a great deal of breakage. I took a shower about two hours ago and washed my hair, then it took me almost an entire hour just to blow dry it straight. My arm and hand kept getting numb from holding the dryer up so long. I put lots of leave in conditioner in my hair, so that helped decrease the kinkiness factor, plus I used my favorite detangler comb.

Thirtieth week of pregnancy begins today :clap:
