The lice on Delia have not been licked yet. And just to complete the joy, she's got a fever again.

No writing tonight, okay? Or tomorrow night either, probably.

That really sounds too dangerous to me, and I'm not going to do it. There are a lot of other things we can try first.

I don't understand the danger. 1) You wash it out when you're done. 2) You're not doing it by candlelight.

Some chemicals are really not good for direct contact with your skin. I've heard that kerosene is one -- that if you try the kerosene treatment, you can end up with chemical burns on your scalp.

It's the fumes that freak me out. All those carcinogens. *shrugs* It worked when my Gramma did it, and it was a common thing in her family (and nobody died of cancer, as I recall). Still, *shudder*.
