Stuff you've learnt the hard way

[shootingstar]

Hey Oak, I still have to (or should ) pluck my eyebrows, etc. and do other stuff on my face.

But yes, I could wear a strapless dress ..right now and be hair free in the 'pits. Or pull on my cycling shorts ...and run around in the snow...unembarrassed but cold...

I actually was oblivious to this hairless trend for first few months (a few yrs. ago) because I never shaved all the time anyway. Then I realized that I was being forgetful but after examining self...

The only saving grace...for someone with naturally black hair.

Do not put your jeans in the washer and dryer until you have removed your lip gloss from the pocket. Unless you want little grease spots on the rest of the load of laundry, as a sort of design element.

PS Remember that you learned this the hard way several years ago. And hope that today's re-learning lasts longer.

Ah, okay. First thing I learned the hard way is that if I search for this thread under the word "learned," I won't find it.

What I meant to post:

1. When removing tape from a small object, do not hold it in your fingers and use a knife pointed directly at the palm of your hand.

2. A scab will too scratch a contact lens.

Oh Lord! That takes the cake!!

650 tires just don't go on 700 wheels. I've learned that the hard way. In the middle of nowhere...
