For the first time in nearly half a year, we actually finished stocking our load on the day it came in without even going overtime I don't know what productivity fairy just appeared but here we are
so, story time ok, so i showered monday morning and got a hair appointment for wednesday. didn't shower tuesday because i didn't really need one and you're not supposed to wash your hair the day before you get it done anyway. didn't shower wednesday because i got my hair done and then was running around all day, and you're supposed to give newly dyed hair 24-48 hours to set anyway. didn't shower thursday morning because it hadn't been 24 hours yet and I got home from work at midnight, fell into bed, and didn't wake up until 15 minutes before my shift this morning. worked all day and finally showered when i got home tonight. so basically is spent five days getting increasingly crusty (i washed my face every day so it wasn't as bad as it could have been, but i still woke up rank this morning and spent the day working) and finally took a shower tonight, and it was the second best shower of my life. The best shower of my life was almost immediately (like an hour and a half) preceded by the words "we all smell like this and we're not going to talk about it now get in the car."
Spoiler: advice for future use, if desired, from a long haired frequent user of hair dyes and perms I have been dyeing my hair every 3-6 weeks for at least 20 years, because I started going grey at 21 and salt and pepper is not a good look for me even though there are other folks who look great that way. If I washed it every time I took a shower, it would be destroyed. Also, a lot of lolita/pinup hairstyles are easier to do if your hair hasn't been washed for a day or so. I recommend those large claw/banana clips and/or a shower cap. I don't usually use a cap unless I need it to stay absolutely dry (shampoo does more damage than water) but even just pinning it up with a banana clip usually keeps it mostly dry, particularly if I wash my face at the sink and don't stick my head directly under the shower head.
I usually shower every other day and wash it then. Thats about as fast as it gets greasy and I get gross. This was just an extra bad week.
Spoiler: slightly tmi? i got a wireless bra THAT ACTUALLY FITS, i finally have a choice other than shitty sports bra that i cant quite breathe properly in or tit pain
So far I've written FOUR one-shots for Femslash February, and I think I may well finish a fifth today! Granted, most of them are super short, but still, I'm actually writing!
Coworker dude I really like has only been doing T for 2 months and his voice is already dropping! And one of the customers correctly gendered him today!

I got reblogged by Unpretty and got two nice comments on my old crackfic, which are both good ways to start out the morning.
I went to Target to get my meds refill and ended up buying some groceries also (as you do) and hence had to get in line to get a staff member to let me out with the cart so I could get a cab. As I was standing in line I noticed that the staff member was wearing a red lolita blouse instead of the usual red polo shirt. She looked up and told me that my dress was pretty and looked very lolita. I told her that it was in fact a Yumetenbo dress. She looked familiar but I couldn't place her. Then she looked at my phone case. "What's that on your phone case?" "Thylacines--Tasmanian tigers--" "I think I know you!" Her nametag said "Maggie" and she looked kind of like an old friend of mine who was thinner that I haven't seen in at least 3 years, which is more than enough time for her to have gained a little weight and of course, if it was her, I wasn't blonde the last time she saw me, so I said, "Are you Maggie C--? I'm Kiri M--" Then she got someone else to take over the customer service desk and we reconnected while we waited for my cab. :) :) :)
