It’s amazing how a single piece of furniture can really bring a room to life, and this piece just speaks to my soul. This is exactly what the living room needed. More me.

The crossed eyes are making me a little dizzy…
Beautiful pillow is very huggable, won’t scratch you, doesn’t beg for food. On the other hand, pillows don’t purr, greet you at the door when you come home, curl up in your lap to take a nap. I’ll take the real kitty any day.
Yes, the pillow is entirely too predictable. Kinda takes all the fun (and danger) out of having a kitty. 🐱
I love the crosseyed pillow–bigger is always better when it comes to cats! What a handsome model too!
Ugggh thread jack; I fully realize this a petty, silly almost complaint but my haircut is too short and it is driving me bonkers. I hate it when my hairdresser gets all edward scissorhands and next thing I know there is a pile of hair around the chair and he is all pleased with himself. Yes, yes it will grow but still.
Last time I got my hair cut she put some layers in it (which I agreed to) and I like it fine when she’s done…then I go and dry it the next morning and it doesn’t come out the same and I wish it wasn’t quite so layered. Sadly, this is not the first time this has happened.
I can relate to this complaint, it has also happened to me a few times.
But this is just one of the problems I have had with hairdressers. For me the ideal hairdressing session would be like this: I make an appointment, I go there and tell them what I want. (Just a few cm shorter to get rid of split ends) They accept it, they don’t have earth shattering ideas just do what I asked without any small talk about people of the neighbourhood/celebrities that I don’t know anyway. Or even better would be to leave my head there while they work on it 🙂
Once a hairdresser suggested stripes into it – maybe to nurture the inner tabby, I remained polite but I already felt the need to scratch her.
Oh Ems your post is so entertaining! Unfortunately it is also dead on ☹️. I realize that they consider what they do is an art and creativity is allowed and I can agree with that – but for someone else! All I need is a hair “service” you know, like a 1000K check up.
And speaking of scratching someone…the most recent trip to the salon had me in a chair with a stylist that noted my cat earrings and immediately began to over dramatize her hatred of cats. Her audience being someone WEARING CAT EARRINGS.
I don’t think it’s petty at all. I’ve worn my hair quite short for the past 15+ years and I could never find a hairdresser who would cut it as short as I wanted. I’d have to keep asking for shorter and shorter until I’d finally give up. Then I found a hairdresser who, when I told her to cut it “very, very short” actually did!! And she does this every. single. time. Needless to say I consider her a gem and I’ve threatened to hunt her down if she ever even thinks of retiring. 😁 So yeah, haircuts are important.
Haven’t been to a hairdresser in more than a decade. My hair is almost down to my waist and when the split and thinning ends need a trim, I can easily do it myself, like I did this spring. Of course, the ends are reddish blond and the top is turning nice and gray. Nice contrast and funky looking, but I’m good with that.
Last serious haircut was back in 1995, when I basically got a 1″ long crew cut. Been growing it out ever since then.
I used to work with a woman (in her 50s, I think) who had silver-gray hair, always up in a bun. One year she dressed as a witch for Halloween and wore her hair down. It was almost to her waist and I had no idea it was that long (perfect for a witch costume). At first glance I wasn’t sure it wasn’t a wig.
I had super-long hair for a few years in high school/college but usually I just let my mom trim it. (I would trim my own bangs, though.) When I finally had 10 inches chopped off (it was still to my shoulder blades) the hairdresser made me stand because it didn’t fall straight enough over the back of the chair.
Lucy’s Mom, well. I have a man for you! He actually gives very good hair cuts but he really, really went full tilt on the thinning and texturing this time. As friends said yesterday.. “It looks good but in a week and a half, it will be amazing!”
I stopped going to hairdressers years ago because they never gave me the haircut I wanted. After moving to a new city I would go in with a picture of ME with the style I wanted, but they never could duplicate it.
I just let my hair grow out, trimming my bangs regularly, and eventually trimming the ends too. I let my hair grow as long as it would get. Sadly, it never got as long as I wanted it. It just barely gets to waist length, which is pretty long, true, but I wanted it even longer, long enough to sit on! Ah well.
I’ve even managed to put layers in my hair from time to time, but this last time I messed up, or I have too many split ends to deal with. When I braid my hair, the layered bits stick out all over the place!
Add me to the list of hairdresser-shunners. I cut it myself and usually wear it in a bun or plaits, so it doesn’t matter if I make a bit of a mess of it.
I cannot imagine ever having this problem. No matter what they do, I’ve got bangs in my eyes and curls around my ears within 2 weeks. The hassles of very short hair . . .
the definition of wackadoodle eyes!
Sorry, it’s a no from me..too close to uncanny valley 😂
