The Creamy Crack Is Calling Me!

"My hands are over my ears! I'm not listening! Stop calling me... stop it!"
That's the internal dialogue that's going on with me and the creamy crack (aka Silk Elements MegaSilk Relaxer with Shea Butter). I transferred the creamy crack/olive oil mixture into a clean haircolor applicator (with the spout).
It's calling me...
I really want to stretch until December. It's just 34 days away. I don't have the shakes yet. This is funny, but sad, because I don't have an unruly grade of hair. I love my coils and curls (except for the straight ends on the sides of my head). I'm also now rationalizing the reason for stretching until December. Is it to keep it on a calendar type schedule? January, April, July, October? If I did that, then I should textlax tonight (lol), and I'll be ready again in January. Whoever is reading this, is witnessing my crazy, the fact that I can justify textlaxing. I should be shame, that I can't even stick to my word, but I can't even feel my scalp through my NG (new growth). Let me crawl back into my corner, and continue reading the Hair Growth, Texturizing, and Relaxing threads on the BHM. If I textlax between tonight and Length Check Day (November 1st), it will show up in the pictures!

Wednesday - Removed App, Washed Hair

Check out these custom barbies by doll-maker Loanne Hizo Ostlie. They are fabulous. I wish they were around way back when I was playing with them (a million years ago). My playtime scenarios would have been a whole lot different. Loanne's website is Tabloach Productions.

I couldn't hold out until next week. I removed the unit. My head feels so much better. I'm going to try wear it out as long as I can. I'm also going to try to resist the creamy crack. It's calling me. I'm going to get a mild for the next text. I don't think I have enough in the jar for my whole head. I'm going with the same brand, Silk Elements. I did my usual clarifying wash with the Suave Clarifying shampoo, followed by the Creme of Nature Ultra Moisturizing shampoo, followed by a co-wash with the VO5 Tea Therapy conditioner, all in the shower. I rinsed well, then slathered my hair with Mega-Tek and followed that with the Nexxus Humectress. I put Dr. Miracles Intense Spot Serum all around my hairline. My back hairline is a bit discolored, probably from the Walker No Shine Tape. I'm trying to nurse it back to health:

My nape looks like somebody's rusty, ashy ass knees! Nobody knows me here, so I'm going to rock my natural curlies for the whole month of November... yeah, right! I know I'm going to break down. I'm in a kind of pissy mood, and my short curly hair reflects that "don't mess with me" attitude. We'll see.
The straight ends are driving me crazy. I'm not cutting them until my hair is grazing my jaw! I may start bobby pinning the napes on, instead of the glue/tape sandwich.

My New Internet Finds

Back to the routine, the grind, the hustle. Researching stuff and thinking about my book. I was really on a writing streak last week. Then the making of the socks got in the way. Now it's back to the grind.

This is Marsha Hunt. I knew of her as Mick Jagger's first baby momma (Karis Jagger), but she is SOOOO much more. She is an actress, singer, WRITER, and all around fabulous black woman. Please peep her website. A friend of mine sent me her iconic picture a couple of years ago because we started a joke on MySpace that I was a band, and the name of the band was Bunchie Dithers and The Carpet Munchers. I didn't know that was her. Wow. I found her today on LeobodyC5's Youtube page. Who is LeobodyC5, you ask?

My new hair hero on Youtube is LeobodyC5. She's beautiful. I'm still watching her vids. I don't wish for my hair to be that long, but I want it to be as healthy as it can be. She's an inspiration to me. I definitely subscribed to her channel. I'd like to know if she's ever cut her hair. I wonder if it's always been that long.

My head is itchy. I think it's because it's a bad app. My worst. I took pictures and they don't look so bad, but it doesn't feel good. I had my first hair encounter last night. Me and the love of my life went to the mall (I had to get a new bra for my enormous ta-tas - I hate my ta-tas but he loves them, so there it is). As we're walking around looking for Fredrick's (these ta-tas would love to fit into Victoria's Secret, but Fredrick's tells me the truth!), this girl comes up to me and asks if I'd be interested in extensions. WTF????? I think she was trying to find out if I had on a lace wig. My app is bad, but Amgib says it wasn't as bad as I thought. You know I got a little paranoid. Anyway, we start talking and she reveals that she was wearing a lace wig. I was telling her how happy I was to meet another black woman that lived in San Jose, that was into lace wigs. She said she didn't attach it with adhesive and hers is attached with bobby pins. Interesting. I gave her my number. It would be cool if she calls.

Has anyone seen the Baskin Robbins "Ice Cream and Cake and Cake" commercials? I LOVE that song!!! Now they have the Halloween remix on! Love it!

In 36 more days, I'm textlaxing. I need to get more creamy crack. I'm wondering if I should get the same brand (Silk Elements), and if should I get a mild. I probably need to consult the growth section on the BHM forum. 36 days! Stretching is nerve wrecking. Why am I stretching (I ask myself)? So as to not overprocess the processed parts.
