Lice!!!

**vtwinpower** · 01-20-2010, 10:29 PM

So I am at Gators having a cold one and shooting the shit when I get a phone call, my wife is freaking out because our son has lice. Big deal but I had to go home and we all had to wash our hair with that nasty stuff. Then we have to wash all the sheets/blankets/comforters and bag all the pillows in seal tight bags so the f*****s can die. Nevertheless we will be up until at least 1 or 2am doing laundry. F**K. I had lice when I was 10 also so it is kind of funny to me that it happened to him at the same age. Went to a neighbor and got his clippers and low and behold their daughter has them also and they are in the same classroom. LOL. Gave my son a haircut (didn't do a bad job either for my first time). E-mailed the teacher and voila all done.

There you go, my life on a wednesday night.

I had lice a few months ago. Never babysitting school children again... lol. Just kidding, but never going in without a ton of hairspray again.

A few things you can do to keep the fuckers from coming back.

1) If you have spare sets of sheets put the sheets you do have in garbage bags in the garage for 2 weeks, then wash them. The fuckers can hold their breath and sometimes survive the washer & dryer.

2) After you all treat yourselves put hairspray in your hair and don't wash it every day. Contrary to popular belief, lice like clean hair, not grimy/sticky hair.

That should get you started and good luck.

How old is your daughter? Maybe get some hair silk and start combing it through her hair focusing on under and close to the scalp.

My son has thick course hair so we started applying olive oil hair spray and a ton of hair gel. LOL.

I feel your pain. I was up until 3 one night vacuuming furniture, cleaning the floors, washing clothes, bedding and bagging.

oh the joys of parenting.

We didn't get close enough Rico. Chritina I have a son silly. Beauty I thankfully have a washer/dryer that does high temp steaming to disinfect so it should have taken care of that part (hopefully). Rico he actually likes his hair cut, I am the first to be surprised by this.

Considering the alternatives for him, you shouldn't be surprised!
All joking aside, sorry to hear about your woes!
This too, shall pass......

Btw-If you have a dog or a cat, I think that they are exempt.....
