Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, nail polish, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

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

Apparently you're not supposed to light things on fire at the office. WhatEV. But it was a candle, and a birthday, and I've learnt from Dean Winchester to always have incendiary materials on me (note to self: clean out purse before air travel). Also, fire pretty.

What is wrong with me, and why am I compelled to ruin my nails? If I can just hold out five or so more days, they will be long enough to paint, finally, all ten at the same time. But they're so soft, no matter how much calcium and biotin I take, and they tear so easily, and I overcorrect all the time.

Well dang. I don't usually associate Costa Mesa with that kind of crazy.

My television worlds are colliding. I've been watching some L&O reruns and guest stars have been Emily Prentiss, Michael Westen and Marcie (Clea Duvall from Buffy). Now I'm watching Bones and they're referencing Uriel.

Man, I am dying to be able to eat something crunchy right now. I'm ordinarily thrilled that Friday nights are full of popcorn entertainment...

I feel vomity. I probably should eat something so I can take my antibiotic.

I don't drink grapefruit juice. When people ask why, they seem to think I'm overreacting, but I'm glad Steph's post confirms that they are wrongity-wrong-wrong-WRONG.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

ita, have you ever tried nail gelatin? Takes a while to work but I've got super-thin nails and it has worked for me in the past.

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

I may try that, Spidra. My nails are ridiculously fragile, and I can't stop fidgeting with them. They're not thin, but they're really flexible. Back when I had horrible indigestion and knocked back Tums like nobody's business, they were the toughest they'd ever been. But the calcium supplements don't seem to be emulating that.

So to add to my body aches, I got a flu AND tetnis shot at the dr. I like the dr., so that's good.

I am already in bed listening to the game and I can barely keep my eyes open. Note to self, 4 straight hours of heavy yardwork is too much.

‎3 months, 2.75 gallons of stripper, 4 boxes of latex glove, 5 pair heavy duty rubber gloves, at least 5 packages of plastic sheeting, 3 rolls of paper towels (I think,) 3 rolls of masking tape, tweaked tendons, countless ruined manicures, a lot of swear words..and 80 years worth of paint. Gone. [link]

Plenty more work to do. Sanding, a different kind of stripper to do a wipe to prep the surface and get anything left behind, stain removers.... and then I can think about stain and paint and sealant....goes on and on.
