I miss my blog!*Cries*
I looked at my sidebar and I have only made 9 posts this month, and April is nearly over.
It isn't for lack of topics to write about. I have reviews piling up, and I want to tell you of the trip Jack and I made to Toronto. I even have photos!
Tomorrow I am going with V for our waxing. As you can see from my Cone Review I am well overdue.
Today I washed my dreads for the first time. That probably sounds disgusting, considering that I've had them for two weeks. However, most people in the know recommend waiting 1 - 2 weeks (or even longer if you can stand it) before getting new dreadlocks wet. This is because dreads can easily become untangled in the beginning, which is a bad thing. My dreads were fine, they look the same as they did before I got them wet. This evening I am going over to V's to watch a movie and she is going to assist me in back-combing my roots and waxing my dreads again. Wax is important for dreads to keep them from becoming brittle, and also in retaining their shape and encouraging all of the hairs to tangle together. I wax mine about once a week, and I spend about four hours doing each and every one of them.
Next weekend is going to kick ass! Friday evening Jack and I are going out drinking with V and I intend to show off my awesome dreads and drink a LOT of tequila. We are trying to get in as many "One Last Hurrah" events as we can manage. Time just seems to be moving faster and faster, which is both exciting and sad.
Poly feels like a distant memory at the moment. We haven't had any inclination to talk about it, nor any real need to address any of the residuals. Once we move there will be more energy for such things. At this point I have enough 'feelings' to deal with, related to moving across the country, leaving friends and family and everything I have ever known. I doubt I could make any headway with my insecurity issues at any rate. If I have to deal with more emotional upset...well I'd just rather avoid it for the moment, put it that way.
I am doing my best not to get really stressed out over the move. Jack and I are still debating about where to live. There are lots of areas in and around Toronto to chose from. We are also in the process of selling our house, which is a headache. Everything has to happen so quickly and getting all of the 'steps' organized into some sort of smoothish chronological queue is rattling my usual rhythm of life.
Enough bitching! LOL
I hope you can excuse me, I just haven't had a lot of opportunity to vent. I don't like talking about it with family or friends because it makes them sad, which makes me sad. At least here I can just get it all out and then I feel better. Also I am menstruating, so my emotions are a little out of whack.
I am hoping to catch up on blogging this week. I have reviews to post and stories from our trip.
Adios!
