mayohead birthday

Thursday was my birthday, and I had been planning on going to work, but Molly has been fighting off some head lice and when we got to school they found enough lice "nits" in her hair that she had to stay home. So we decided to make a fun day of it. Her teacher had recommended a simple home remedy - basically you cover the head with mayo, cover that with a shower cap, and wait a few hours while all the lice and nits suffocate. Then you wash and comb them out. So we bought some mayo on the way home and had at it. I went ahead and did myself as well, both for fun and in case some of the buggers had tried to jump into my head. All in all it was a fun father-daughter bonding experience and a fun way to spend my birthday.
