Just one quick bitch ...

[DirtDawg]

I washed my daughter's hair three times just now - at midnight!!

I heard her stirring, felt her stirring, more like. I had my headphones on, music blasting ...


She used a whole container of Strawberry Lip Balm on her hair. She said that it says it will protect from winter damage. She didn't want anything bad to happen to her hair. That shit is basically petroleum jelly with some sweet flavoring added. I don't think I got it all, but she is a bit too distraught to go on or do any more washing for now.

At least it was not silly putty or something like that, then you would have had to cut it out...

It was suggested to us by our psyche team that we use this therapeutic/rehabilitative product to give my daughter some relief from her tactile problems. We acquired about twelve ounces of this in varying grades and used it every day. A few days go by and she discovers that it makes perfect incuse impressions of what ever she presses into it. No problem, more fun!
After a few months, she had the idea to make an impression of her hair.

It was really bad! I managed to get it out without cutting, though. I used a can of freeze spray, which I normally use to diagnose intermittently failing electronic circuits by exposing them to thermal shock. It froze it and I was able to chip the stuff away from her hair with minimal damage.
That was about three years ago.

Whoa - I am kind of surprised you didn't confiscate it a bit sooner tbh, lol. Well at least you sorted I guess, rather ingeniously too.

I persuaded my cousin when I was about 8 to put some silly putty in his hair (I like to watch people do things before doing them myself ) and the result was not pretty lol...

WTF!

Hell no.  I didn't confiscate it. We still use it , although it's only on a "Whenever She Wants It"  basis these days.

I try not to take things away from my kids, except for short-lived, disciplinary reasons to help them develop a respect for some things.

I know, an evil father is me.  I would honestly have them make their own mistakes, but do so in a circumstance where I can come to their rescue, if necessary.

My parents I guess are quite a bit more disciplinarian then you are. After the silly putty incident, we didn't have any around for perhaps ever (though its novelty had worn off after that point).

I took something like Silly Putty away from my daughter after she ruined several pieces of her clothes with it, not that there was very much of it left anyway.

It was this clear gelatinous substance with an embedded dinosaur, and after it dried on her clothes, it never came out, no matter how long I soaked them.

partners that take advantage of your struggles with communication to start fights with you about god knows what and then blame you for starting said fight with their agenda, which they never make clear enough that you can make any argument.

(yeah. it made my head spin too)

Excuse me? 

Do you want to take this public? Cause I'll meet you there, if you do.

But otherwise, I think you're full of shit, and as unable to accept your own fallibility as I am.

That is my bitch. Those, including myself, who cannot accept fallibility.

Can the make-up sex afterwards be public too?

The neighbour's fucking kid is driving his fucking moped up and down the road, but they'd sure as hell complain if I made a little bomb and blew up.

Too late...

[DirtDawg]

Awwwww... Shit!

My connection is running like shit at the moment, and some sites are taking minutes to load.

So has mine. Probably due to the weather 'round 'ere.

Are you with Virgin Media, by any chance?
