not your mom's socks.

I'm really illogically pissed off at Drudge for releasing that. He is not Ours, as in American. And he's off flighting a bloody war, too.

seriously? and he's just a kid.... like all the others - but painting a huge target on him and yelling 'he's over heee-eere!' was not news. it was something else. Paparazzo-hit probably overstates it. Also? he put an entire group of people under the target. I think it was both irresponsible and about as inhumane as people trying to kill each other at all.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I've had one concurrent mani-pedi and it was horrible sitting there with four people massaging my extremeties while trying to make eye contact with me but talking to each other in a language I couldn't understand.

Nevermore.

I hate painting my own nails (such a damned mess) but I've grown to hate wearing sandals and having them naked. Especially to work.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Yeah, I'm angry at Drudge for posting it for the reasons already cited and because Harry was actually trying to work, when he didn't have to, and this is hurting his ability to take part in a career he evidently cares about.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

I just had this vision of a Taliban sniper one by one picking off the paparazzi following Britney Spears around Los Angeles. "You people are all meanies! You don't understand how she suffers!" *blam*

...I realize, your average Taliban would not allow himself to read People Magazine. Work with me here.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".

I admit to being a big fan of mani-pedi. Every 2 weeks I get my nails done and get my toes done about every 8 weeks. I've been going to the same person for 8 years now. She owns her own business and is a wonderful friend.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

I love getting pedicures. I don't do it very often, but think they're wonderful. I'm not as fond of manicures, but that's because I paint my own fingernails. Dear Overlords of the Fashion Industry, thank you for making black nail polish "in". No longer do ElderGoths have to stock up on their preferred color every October.

Because books.

I've never had a pedi, but I've had manicures. A couple of years ago, across from my former office, you could get a basic one for $6 before tip. But that might be because there are nail places a dime a dozen in New York.

I like the hand massage.

Exactly! My nail person keeps a collection of black and dark polish just for me. (The Creative "Imperial Anarchy" line that came out in the fall is amazing) None of her other customers show any interest in the wonderful, dark, spooky colors, ah well, more for me!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I swear to god, I am sitting here in my living room, located in the state of Texas, and I just saw an ad for a Congressional candidate named...John Manlove.

I thought it was a joke. Then they broke out the pictures of the Bible.

John Manlove.

Could be worse. His last name could be Glasscock. (Which is a real last name, I swear.)
