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.
I like books. I just don't want to take on too much. Do they have an introduction to the modern blurb?

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".
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.
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.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
John Manlove.
Could be worse. His last name could be Glasscock. (Which is a real last name, I swear.)

My oldest had a teacher named Mrs. Mycock. In middle school.

See, that is just asking for trouble. I would have told everyone my name was Mrs. Smith. I mean, I can barely think about it without laughing, and you want 11 year olds to!
Also, I know I have said this here before, but we have a sys admin head named Dick GoDown. His daughter, Heather, oddly works here too, and she procures live pelvic models (people who are paid to have students practice giving pelvic exams) and live proctology models.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Heather is awesome!
I've mentioned this before, but in college there was a prof. named Richard Face.

I dislike getting manicures and pedicures but I love the outcome of pedicures so much that I'll endure it. I do not want strange hands on me. See also: massages. I've never had one and it sounds like the most awful thing EVAH! Some stranger on my naked parts! NOOOOO!!!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I love pedicures, but only get them in the summer. And I doubt I'd do it if I lived somewhere where they weren't cheap.
When I get mani I always get them cut short and painted something neutral. That seems low-maintenance and professional-looking to me.
That's what I would be going for with the fakes. Versus my current classy bitten look.
