    She’s gonna need a ladder. . or a styling chair that goes down into the floor.

    Meanwhile, as a hairstylist, I just know what will happen. ..As soon as she’s finished applying the color, Elma’s leaves will start falling out. .. And some clients will say it’s the stylist’s fault, even though it’s just Mother Nature.With clients that big, it’s hard to argue, even when you’re right. .. Then again, I’ve met Elma. .. her bark is worse than her bite.

    I can’t figure out.. is she blowing bubble gum?

    Yes, Susan, she blows. I’m told it is easy to prev-oak her…But in the spring, my heart turns towards pussy willows and when Touch Me Nots turn into Forget Me Nots…..

    So, that’s where the Entwives went when they disappeared. (Yep, I’m the nerd that referenced “Lord of the Rings”).

    That’s not their main salon, just a branch office.

    Varnes. . Ahem…jreckard… just stick-ing my neck out a bit.

    And yeah, everybody, i do think it’s gum. But, not even to mention the rudeness of it, i can’t imagine chewing it, especially sticking out of my mouth, when hair is falling everywhere. Yuck!

    Alexikakos. . Um. .. what? Feuilles does mean leaves, of course. . But your other phrase, in my admittedly imperfect French anyway, means search in searching. Or look for by searching.She will have to visit a.. researcher?
