chocolatepotI went out to get groceries etc., but because it was about 10F at most today, I did it in one trip and in the car. Which left me with a lot of extra time! I did waste quite a bit, and spent probably two hours cumulatively on brushing and styling my hair (going to have to get a routine down: I simply don't have the time in the morning when I have to work). Apparently my mother told my grandmother that I have my hair cut like hers when she got married, which made my grandmother very happy. I actually trimmed the layers last night, which is terribly stupid and I don't recommend it, but I thought it needed more of a U shape. It does require a bit more fiddling with the comb to keep the U smooth, but I like it.
Recently I made my first order from Litt(t?)leBits on Etsy. After buying the 1910 Besame perfume, I've been really into wearing scent, and I wanted some lavender water as a nice clean, natural perfume; I also got the last vial of the perfume they made based on Martha Washington's recipe, which is pretty special. And because I was buying stuff, I also got the 1815 jasmine pomatum - tried a little on my hair today and I am very pleased with the results - and the 1922 pomade.
Anyway, what I actually was trying to say is that despite my time-wasting, I've almost finished writing the women's section for my sample chapter. That only leaves children, which should be pretty quick. I'm going to do a good editing pass, but is anybody interested in being a second pair of eyes?
Another thing that happened today was that an AskHistorians flair from years ago who'd deleted his account came back and borderline-demanded to be reflaired, then started leaving some terrible comments that are no longer considered acceptable by our standards. When he responded tangentially to a question about Walt Disney's possible antisemitism, I removed it because, like I said, it was tangential; he in turn started asking if I had worked for Disney and had a conflict of interest and demanded I resign. Sent us several messages about it through modmail! He got banned and then went back to his UFO subreddit (yes, that's what his flair was in) to say that we were no longer a legitimate sub and the moderator who was an expert in fashion (it's pretty clear that he thinks this makes me an idiot) and maybe some of the others are Disney shills.
Okay thanks hacks. I'll take my work the press and let them know your subreddit has been completely compromised in its integrity.
