The Queue: Take a break

We’re at the point of quarantine where I’m so desperate for a vacation that I’ve been asking — maybe even begging — my kids to go spend the night with me in a tent outside. They are not at all into it.  I don’t fully blame them, since where we live it is uncomfortably hot and sticky, and it’s been raining for the past two days, but still. Since our summer vacation usually involves a road trip with fast food and gas station snacks I’ve also been craving Burger King. I finally broke down and got some gummi bears, but it just isn’t the same.

This is The Queue, where you ask questions and it’s my job to answer them, even though I really need a vacation. No offense.


The Queue: Bangin

We’ve been in quarantine for nearly five months now, and it’s at the point where I have to talk myself out of cutting my own bangs on nearly a daily basis. I told myself I would wait until the salons were safe to visit, and I know if I do it myself I’m going to really mess them up, but honestly, if I cut them they would’ve grown out already. Twice.

This is The Queue, where you ask us questions to distract us long enough to steal the shears while we answer.


The Queue: Escapism

The issue I’m finding with escapism in times of crisis is that, for me, it tends to make the tough things tougher to start when I actually get around to doing them. But for now, I’m a faerie princess floating around a mystical blue landscape. It’s cool, I don’t have to order school supplies for de facto homeschool until after I stop glittering, which will be never. Ah, Ardenweald.

This is The Queue, where you ask me questions and I definitely don’t put off answering them until the very last minute.
