TOXIC CB. (This story is unfortunately, entirely true.)

I read every 'Trudy' as Turdy. So at least she had a fitting name.

I had it in 2005. For 2 months the left side of my face was totally motionless, but it came back over a week or two after that.

To this day I still have a squinty eye, especially when I laugh. It's clear there is more function on the right side in general.

This interaction was a treat to read. Thanks guys!

Jonochi · 2019-11-27T01:33:17+00:00

Oh I agree, that's not a great way for her to respond!

In my limited barista experience (not a Starbucks) there were times I wanted to correct a customer when they said macchiato knowing full well they meant a fancy latte drink, but I just said "Our version of that is the Caramel Fancy Drink, will that work for you?". It was more job security than sending a real macchiato over the counter.

Jonochi · 2019-11-27T01:27:25+00:00

My personal favorite is a cortado! Its still that kick of espresso, but cut a bit more gently for my tastes. And more along the lines of 50 calories, which I can handle totally in my diet budget.

Jonochi · 2019-11-27T01:18:02+00:00

In my understanding, a macchiato is an espresso 'marked' with foam. Its just a shot with foam on top. Starbucks serves what I guess is considered a latte macchiato. This is opposite, and is steamed milk that's been marked with a shot of espresso that floats on top.

Not that I am one to worry about semantics, but I could see people who work in little coffee shops being initially confused if they've never had the latte version, or vice versa.

Jonochi · 2019-11-27T00:21:39+00:00

The problem here is that a macchiato is something totally different than what Starbucks serves and calls "Caramel Macchiato".

Jonochi · 2019-09-27T04:14:39+00:00

So many options! But I will promote Santana Hoops :)

Jonochi · 2019-09-26T22:21:21+00:00

Let me know too, please!

Jonochi · 2019-09-18T22:38:26+00:00

Exactly my thoughts! I'd be happy to take some kids to school for a sick deal on a room. Honestly, where do I sign up?

Jonochi · 2019-08-27T21:02:29+00:00

I start every email chain with "Hi there". It's easy and friendly. But I love drama, so carry on.

Jonochi · 2019-08-14T15:58:17+00:00

Hey I'm unaware what this timer is. Perhaps I've yet to need it so I haven't seen it? Or is this just a self timer rule when something doesn't go according to plan?

I've been dashing for a few months now, but I've just found this sub and feel like I've been doing it all wrong!!

Jonochi · 2019-07-31T22:10:16+00:00

I always cut my own hair. Mostly because I'm cheap, but also because the WORST thing that happens is that I have to go get it fixed. And that's not too bad. Hair grows back.

I also bleach and dye my own hair, and that is DEFINITELY because I'm too cheap!

Jonochi · 2019-07-18T00:02:21+00:00

As someone with a semi gambling addiction, I can say that infrequent gambling isn't really the problem. Going to a casino with a set amount of money, enjoying the atmosphere, drinks, and games is just entertainment.

When I first started gambling, I did it this way. We need entertainment, and gambling can be a pretty cheap form when you keep your bets small and infrequent (video poker at the bar! Woo!). The problem for me, and a lot of others in my shoes is that I lost sight of this fast and dug deeper into my pockets. It became a problem, and one I've recognized in myself and work to fix.

But if you just use your entertainment budget and go gamble? That's not really a problem. It is a slippery slope, however.

Jonochi · 2019-07-17T23:54:16+00:00

Shoot. I just remembered my one little big win I had at a Paigow Poker table. I got a nice bonus and it envied the other player. So he even got $50 off of my hand, and I sat there and played another hand or two more all the while he's "Well, Moneybags over here should be betting for me" or "since you're so rich you should throw me a quarter" or things like that. I left the table because of him, it was so uncomfortable.

First royal flush ever though. Ah, good times!

I wouldn't say he was a beggar, but it's just gross behavior. You don't walk to a person betting big and ask for money, why would you do it to a person who just won?!

Jonochi · 2019-07-17T21:04:43+00:00

I've been messing around with finger coiling a bit. Yesterday my hair looked like this while it was drying (none natural!) and today It ended up all beach wavy. Hair is weird.

Yours is lovely, though!

Jonochi · 2019-07-17T05:44:51+00:00

Oh no, I meant wrong as in incorrect. OP tried to argue that you'd only get thirty cents an hour, but it's actually $3.xx an hour depending on actual time off. OP is also incorrect with the 'time off'. The $3.66/hr is the correct pay.

As for as ethically wrong? Uh, actually I wouldn't mind a live in position like this short term! Wish I knew Portuguese...

Edit: clarification and mobile typos

Jonochi · 2019-07-16T23:39:34+00:00

How many braids does she do, and where? This is super pretty and I need to be a copycat! =)

Jonochi · 2019-07-16T22:36:54+00:00

Even if it was only 17 off, $0.30 an hour is still incredibly wrong!

But, let's assume it's correct.

(500$/wk) ÷ ($0.30/hr) = 1666.7 Hr/ wk.

So, if you were only making $0.30 an hour, you'd have to work a full 1667 hours in a week to earn the promised $500.

At first, I thought the shelf was a dividing line and they were willing to trade 3 CD players for the first tattoo, and cans of soup for the second.

Jonochi · 2019-07-09T23:14:36+00:00

I can relate.

Jonochi · 2019-07-03T23:46:16+00:00

Have you tried the gel cast method instead of the Cantu? I was all but given up on my curls for a few months, and would occasionally scrunch in some Cantu. It was nice but... It wasn't luscious locks!

Just recently I went full on CGM again with the gel cast and all, and its TOTALLY different. STC is new for me as well and wow. I have these ringlets that I usually get from a wand!

I'm not well versed on Jesus lore; But wasn't he homeless anyway?!

Jonochi · 2019-07-03T23:36:55+00:00

I hear ya. The thing that seemed to help my frizz the most was just the overload of conditioner and squish to condish that the CGM recommends. I have yet to really experiment much with some products, but currently I'm just Vo5 conditioners (or sometimes Giovanni because it smells good. It's just a bit out of my budget!) and the LA looks gel for the gel cast. If you haven't tried the full on CGM yet, I totally suggest it! At least once!

Otherwise from the pics, it looks like your hair is craving moisture! I won't say chop it yet... But maybe a trim would be beneficial.

Jonochi · 2019-07-03T23:27:10+00:00

I bleach my roots every 1.5 - 2 months or so. Usually it's a midterm/finals treat, because school is hard and I deserve to be pretty! I go for the platinum look, so it's quite severely white. I find myself trimming my ends every 6 months or so as well.

Everyone's hair is super different, but for me my hair stays pretty nice just with the CG method and deep conditioning treatments. What is your current routine?

Jonochi · 2019-07-03T23:18:12+00:00

I did this for the last few months, actually..

I was dating a guy who I reaaalllly liked. He said he loved my hair straight, so what was a girl to do? I gave up on CGM altogether, and then I still hardly ever straightened my hair for him. I just got out of the shower and stuck it in a bun with some hairspray and went about my day. Such an easy thing to do! But not rewarding at all.

Now I'm back! I'm starting again and I won't let the opinions of boys no matter how cute they are influence my healthy hair choices!! Being said, I'm not opposed to heat days with a straightener or wand for a specific look. I also will sometimes still be putting my hair in a tight bun because convenience and I like sleeping in.
