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.

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

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.

I wear really aggressive colors, because I can. I figure one day I'll probably have a job where I have to be more conservative, but I sure don't right now. I'm wearing one of the polish box polishes right now and I love it. It was much more turquoisey out of the bottle, which is great for me. Only, it's wearing pretty long and I don't actually have that much turquoise clothing. I should have more!

It's probably wrong to buy clothing based on the colors of polish I have, rather than the other way round, huh?

With the box, I really wanted to get a nice pink, but I think the problem with me is that I just don't like pink. Or at least I think I don't like pink. So I tried everything on, but no. We'll see what the Zoya is like when it gets here.

It is easy to teach someone to do a Rubic's cube and then practice can cut the time down. I remember teaching a neighbor (who I had a crush on) how to do it and he got pretty quick at it. It took me a lot more work to figure it out.

I want to do my nails cause they look like crap. But I sliced part of my thumb the other day and it is right next to the nail. The idea of polish remover near it is yuck. Hopefully it will heal quickly.

I only ever figured out how to do the rubik's cube by prying it apart, and then putting it back together!

Unlike riding a bike, you can totally forget how to do it though. I "borrowed" Nephlet's one Christmas and never could remember how to solve it.

I should buy myself one.

The point is not that he's capable of doing it, it's that he bothered to learn. It was rare enough when I was a kid, let alone now.
