I tried clipping my nails short like that when I was learning to play guitar, and again when I was trying to climb rocks, but it never stopped feeling weird. Now they are all different lengths and shapes because I ran out of emory boards and keep forgetting to get more, but at least the tips of my fingers aren't all exposed and vulnerable.
See, Vera? Dress yourself up; you get taken out somewhere fun.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Yay for ventless Grace! I hope her fever abates.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
A half inch is pretty short. It won't show scalp but it won't lie down either.
Yeah, half an inch was probably understating it--it's closer to an inch in most places. I was wondering about giving it another week or two, but I'll ask the hairdresser what she thinks.
Thanks for the links!

I forgot to do the dance of joy for Grace getting off her vent! That's wonderful, wonderful news.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Like sara, I have horribly thin nails. I've had some luck recently with OPI's Nail Envy. But they're just now growing to the end of my fingertips after a month of not biting, cutting or even filing them.
Yay for Grace getting off the vent!

Oh, you can totally get away with one inch. That's short, but you can comb it.

Anything for a weird life.
I saw the COMM(A) post about Duck and Shot, and if you want it to immediately allow curse words in your texts and such, I've heard that adding a contact named "Fuck" will allow it to go through. Acts as a whitelist of sorts.
I don't have an iPhone personally, but it's unfortunately impossible to live as a college student nowadays without reaching a certain level of proficiency with them.

My iPhone now knows fuck, shit, cunt, fic, and apparently, mpreg.
I'm not sure where it got the last one. I think it's been surfing the net without me.
