Ginny's got a new toy

Today I finally set up my Fire TV Stick and let me tell you it's awesome. Set up was super easy. Within five minutes I was watching a Robin Williams comedy special. I have Netflix and Amazon Prime so I have plenty of movies and tv shows to watch. So far I've experienced no lagging and it connects via your wifi so I can use my laptop while watching if I so please. You can also download the app and use your smart phone as a controller. A+ my friends.

So the MBTA is kind of sort of but not really running tomorrow and they're saying it may take 30 days before the T resumes normal service. That's if we don't have another blizzard.


I think I'm walking to work tomorrow which will take me at least an hour and it's going to be in the single digits.


I'll take my calls from down here thanks.

In other news that makes me want to cry the Fifty Shades of Grey movie broke some President's Day opening record. I mean who doesn't want to watch a man abuse a woman on the big screen staring two people who hate each other in real life.


What I Consumed This Weekend
  • Did you watch S.N.L. 40th anniversary show? As per usual with S.N.L. there were some hits (Celebrity Jeopardy) and some misses (Bass-o-Mastic). I'm waiting for Justin Timberlake and Jimmy Fallon to have their own show, I just love them together.
  • On the Bachelor Britt needed the whambulance and Chris attempted to rap the whitest rap of all time. "Family means everything so does an engagement ring." I feel a little ill just typing that.
  • I finished reading Radiance by Grace Draven. If you like fantasy and romance I highly recommend it.
  • Everything Karmin puts out is just amazing. They're not afraid to try out different styles of music and always nail it. I've been listening to Yesterday on repeat.
And I'm out!

Praise the hair Gods! Finally a shampoo that works for oily hair.

If you're a male reader of my blog your eyes are probably going to start glazing over but hey maybe you have oily hair too and don't know what to do about it.

I've had oily hair for as long as I can remember. I've tried many products and home remedies to try to control the oil but nothing has really worked. Sorry, apple cider vinegar still stinks even after you wash it out.

My hairdresser noticed my hair had a lot of buildup which is funny considering I rarely use any product in my hair. She suggested a shampoo called Curbicia by Rene Furterer. Her salon doesn't carry the product so I knew she wasn't suggesting this to me just to make some money. Plus she's a nice woman and I don't think she would do that.

I looked on Amazon and found the Curbicia Purifying Shampoo for $23.00. Shit yo that's a lot of money for a shampoo! I decided to purchase it anyways because you're only supposed to use it twice a week.

I've been using the shampoo for two weeks and I can definitely see a difference in how oily my hair is. If I use the shampoo I can usually skip a wash the next day which I would rarely do before as to avoid looking like a trash bag. The smell is light and refreshing. It doesn't have a weird chemical smell, it just smells like shampoo.

My hair type is fine and wavy so I can't say how it will work on other hair types but usually us fine girls are the ones that get the oily hair.
