Freaky fun


I have a passing acquaintance with an unusual woman. She's very artistic and more than a little bit out there. But always interesting, albeit in small doses.

I heard the most insane thing about her about a week ago.

She has very (I mean veeeeeeeery) long hair. And the care and maintenance of this hair is extremely time-consuming. The washing and brushing take about half a day.

And when she combs it out...

She saves the hair and puts it in the dryer to form what she calls pellets.

And from those pellets...

SHE WANTS TO MAKE A COAT!

Isn't that so deliciously creepy that it just makes your skin crawl?

It totally beats the story my friend told me about her mother-in-law, who obsessively combed her dog and saved enough hair to knit a sweater out of it.

She wore the sweater on Christmas day, and when she came in out of the snow she smelled like wet dog.

Which. Is. Awesome.

I love being weirdness-adjacent.
