(Sidethought - I can quote pages of dialog from the movie - why can't I remember her name?)
Random mental meanderings interrupted by my dog
Giddy side effects/wait 5 minutes
Steel magnolias brainstorming
Julia roberts done me wrong about a lot of things (glamorizing prostitution, feeding my Erin Brockovich fantasies, TINKERBELL?) But Steel Magnolias was the worst. She made being diabetic glamorous. Even the freakout scene in Truvy's converted carpark.
You know the one... Truvy is chatting away, building sentences and curls with equal precision and incredible speed. Then JR starts freaking out (god, there's a black cloud over the name in my memory of the quote from the damned film!) yada yada gets Hollywood disheveled and then comes to, feeling horrified and humiliated by her own body betraying her... and Truvy restores her within 30 seconds.
Other female diabetics, sing along with me now... Lies, lies, lies, no freaking way, lies.
So, anyway... we come to today. I'll flesh this in later maybe insert details like the feel of the wheeler under my butt after 45 minutes, but initial flashes here - I arranged through fb for a woman to come cut my hair (insert beauty college, etc.)
Way Before, Before and after of me.
Feeling a need to get things down urgently before I forget them or the thought is interrupted by dogs like Omar Kyam
