Success and prayers

[pjthompson]

Got my hair cut yesterday--shoulder length, asymetrical layers, bangs. Really cute. Lots of product used by my salonista when I mentioned I was going to Carl's art thingie last night. Looked cute, but I'll never get it to look like that again. I woke up with a most amusing case of bed head this morning. I resembled a picket fence.

Carl's art thingie was quite successful. He sold all five pieces by the end of the evening. He'd actually sold four before the artists' reception, so the gallery owner asked if he could bring any more to the reception. He'd done two other pieces and brought them in, so he could (fingers crossed) wind up with a total of seven sales. That would be a real groovy thing as he's taking a chance and sailing away from the safe life for the art life. Bon voyage, amigo!

And tomorrow my friend goes in for the final surgery to have the artificial connectagozoids removed and his real connectagazoids stitched back together. He wound up having two emergency surgeries and a long recovery to get to this place. He's looking and feeling great, so I can only hope he's as strong as his doctors say, and that the surgery goes as well as they hope. Good luck, buddy.

Yays all around. I'll be praying for your friend that his surgery is a success.

Thank you, hon. We all are.

Thank you, Maymay. :-)

Yes, definite good vibes for your friend.


Oh, and, no photo of the cute bangs? Before the bedhead, of course. :)

[pjthompson]

Thanks.

As to the photo, maybe I'll work up the nerve one of these days.

Hey, it took me ages to work up the courage until I had that photo of Mak and me. I thought (innocently) that no one would want to see a grey haired old bint, but, when I matched my dog? That was different.

rofl. I'm still at the stage where if I part my hair just right no one sees the grey, but I may have to get acquainted with "portable hair color" one of these days. ;-)

I hear God puts prayers from people with good haircuts on a higher priority, so you're fortunate there. ;-)

But good deal on your friend's sales, and I'll hold out hope for your other friend tomorrow.

Yah, that post was your classic piffle-serious combo. But it was that kind of day. :-)
