Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Grooming, go grooming!

I'm grooving on my polish. I knew it was a charcoal-purple duochrome, but I just glanced down at my hands and my nails were green! That was unexpected. ( Zoya Ki for those of you playing along at home.)

Oh, Ki is the best. I love that color.

Then I always love the changey colors that look a little like an oil slick on my fingers.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

my face hasn't really changed, but i did manage to partially dislocate that teeny little bone at the top of the bridge of the nose wearing new speedo googles a cuple weeks ago and nose is still unhappy from that. found some tyr goggles that don't press on that area at all. even though they look pretty much exactly the same.

Yes, yes you do.

Hmmm, I've already got something like 4 layers of polish on my fingernails. (Black holographic glitter, purple jelly glitter, and then topcoat.) Tonight at bathtime, do I want to add a layer of pink glitter and more topcoat?

(My toes are now black with lots of pink glitter. I had apparently forgotten how much I like that look.)

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I am eating dinner, which is the first thing I have cooked in a week: rotini mixed with spinach, mushrooms and shrimp sauteed in butter, white wine and balsamic, with garlic, red pepper and thyme, toped with flakes of parmesan.

It's very good.

Then I am going to grade for an hour, dye my hair, grade, shower, grade.

At 9 pm I am STOPPING anything related to school, and I am going to read my Marie Claire in bed, and soak myself in lotion.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I need to get a good pair of sneakers, as my old ones have worn out from my walking commute. Currently I'm getting by with my winter walking boots, which are insulated and surefooted, but a bit much for wearing indoors.

Yes, pink glitter.

The other good thing to come out of the walking commute is that I've lost 11 pounds since November without any other change in my lifestyle -- other than eating away from home, so that I can't graze as much, I suppose. The most effortless weightloss I've ever experienced.
