You're right. He's evil. But you should see him naked. I mean really!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Really? That's...unexpected. I don't know how I feel about that.

Exactly! Apparently the thing he was hiding under that hairstyle was cognitive dissonance.

I admit to having Katy Perry on my iTunes. It's total candycorn/cotton candy/ inane pop.

I understand that, but there is still something about her that makes me want to throw things. But I will listen to the Cobra Starship "I Kissed A Boy" parody over and over.

PINK!

With black.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I've known a bunch of people who could solve the Rubik's cube that fast, or faster. General consensus seems to be that most people can do it in five minutes if they sit down for an afternoon to learn it, and then with practice they can get faster.

It all started with a discounted fleece for the trip to Nepal and Bhutan. And now I even have a pink and black swimsuit!

(OK, the swimsuit is because I just buy a certain style of whatever is discounted in the least ugly color. Which was pink this last time. Army green didn't do it for me.)

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

But I will listen to the Cobra Starship "I Kissed A Boy" parody over and over.

Because it's brilliant. And funny.

The weird thing about polish likes and dislikes - I used to loathe any shimmer. All pedis were done with creme colors. I'd twist and turn bottles to make sure there was no hint of shimmer, frost, gleam or nothing. Now? Oil slick duochromes are the best.

I like sparkly toes. Even if the only time I or anyone sees them is in the shower or at the pool. I gotta admit, I like knowing I'm working my ass off, sometimes outpacing folks with seriously cut muscles, and here I am with my sparkly toes and long fake nails french manicure. Ah, vanity and contradictions.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Throughout my master's program, I only used Sanrio or other ridiculous pens. It's the same impulse, I think.

Because books.

I go nuts with my toes. The brighter, sparklier, shimmerier the better. I've gotten bolder with my fingernails -- I have a gorgeous very deep blue teal shimmer on now -- but I've also learned some colors just don't look great. There was a gorgeous apple green OPI I loved in the bottle, and it looked like crap on me. It's in the box now, actually.

Yeah.

Which reminds me, I wore jeans and flats (well, boots) to work a lot last week and everyone commented on it. It was funny. During the halon dump drama, I changed out of my heels to snow boots and after informing a director's office hiflyer buddy for the first time what actually happened, he stared at me stunned and then said "Huh, you're shorter."

I'm equally comfortable in both, but forget that work people don't see me in my weekend stuff (and my neighbors always mention when they see me with my hair "done" because they usually see me weekends or post pool.) I find it amusing.
