Just got out of the shower.

I forgot how much it hurts to get shampoo in your eyes. And how you can't get it out, so it's still hurting ages later after you've tried every eye-flushing trick in the book. My eye's all red in a little quarter-circle right around my iris, and it's not looking to go away.

I remembered that I dug out a jumpsuit last year, and have now decided what I'm going to be for halloween (if I can find said jumpsuit). Kay Winnit Lee Fry! The jumpsuit isn't quite right (grey instead of the greenishtan for one), and idk how much I'll be able to make it work as it's actually my dad's and is thus man-sized and possibly non-cut-up-able. But still.

Now I need to find a neighborhood not my own so I can actually trick or treat (or, you know, just use mine, as I know very few people beyond the ones I babysit for and so probably wouldn't have a problem with people being all "OMG, OLD"). And possibly some temporary way to shrink both height and chest so they'll give me candy. Not that I actually want the candy, as I always have ended up giving most of it away, but I want the option to not have to bum the good candies off of siblings when they leave their bags unattended.

Perhaps I'll see if my sister and whichever friend/s she's going with need supervision. Might even be able to get money out of that deal if whichever mom's turn it is really doesn't feel like going and wants to call it babysitting.

Edit: Idk what to tag my shower story as. Suggestions?

Tag it as... shower fail? shower escapades? the cost of cleanliness?

Fail.

But yes, shampoo in eyes is bad. I hate how you're trying to flush it out with the water, only it's hurting and squeezing itself shut so you can hardly open it enough, and it's like you're TRYING to clean it but your eye won't let you. Or something like that. I'm actually really, really careful about that these days so it's been a while since that happened. *knocks on wood*

This one shall probably have to go tagless. BUT EVERYTHING NEEDS A TAG. Health is what I think I went with, because pain is close enough to health. Though that tag's going to run out of room soon, I think, so I'll have to start subtagging. Ahh, tags. I didn't know about you guys forever, but now I don't think I can live without you.

you're TRYING to clean it but your eye won't let you

Yes. Because it hurts more open than closed, so you go for the closed, but then it won't stop hurting because it's still in there.

I'm actually really, really careful about that these days so it's been a while since that happened.

I don't think I can remember the last time it happened to me. Though at first I was afraid that it was. . . idk, HCl or something that I accidentally transferred from my finger whilst attempting to get the soap out in the first place (because it got much worse, naturally, after I started messing with it), and then I was all "AHH! Needs base, needs base! Can you put baking soda in your eye?!"

I MISS TAGS. I can't decide if I'm going to pick up where I left off with my old ones, or introduce a whole new system. I really don't want to lose track of my picspams and fun things. But there're prolly about a hundred (no kidding. I passed the 600th entry mark a few days ago. It seems like it was only yesterday that I passed 500) entries that are without tags, and THAT IS SO MUCH WORK.
Epic sigh.

"AHH! Needs base, needs base! Can you put baking soda in your eye?!"

LOL, CHEMISTRY. Only you, Alexandria. ;)

This made me go look at what number post I was on. HOW DID I MISS #1000?!?! This deserved a party! . . . I will now go home and eat a pancake in celebration. (If there are any left--those siblings tend to like yummy food like such.)

And yeah. I don't think I started tagging until 500 or so, and I've been trying to go back but it's impossible. Plus I started trying to tag (by category of post and author/artist) stuff on cameroncuddy a while back and got nowhere. Tagging, if you don't do it while you're posting, is impossible.

Only you, Alexandria.

And to think I only got a 3 (out of 5) on the college credit exam. What is that?
