Anya ,'Touched'
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.
I totally want a pedicure and a massage, but I have to be careful with pedicures, because I get those white spots from not enough oxygen getting through to my nails.
OK, that is an excellent reason for me to hold off! My toenails still look bad, and it's not like I'm displaying them. Phew!
So I will just do my own fingernails, get the brows done, and call it a day.

Nicely finessed balance of responsibility and indulgence.
ION, Anderson Cooper apparently got roughed up by a crowd in Egypt.
The hospital where I delivered the baby here in MD has valet parking, so no.
I don't get manicures and pedicures anymore, but the woman who does my eyebrows is a genius and I haven't been able to give her up despite my relentless budget cutting.
The lady who last did my eyebrows did them wrong. She thinned them all along, instead of just cleaning up the arch. Not that anyone but me noticed, I'm sure. But still.

Thank you all for reminding me that I desperately need to make a haircut appointment. (Mani/pedi will wait until spring, when I'm willing to show my toes in public & my daughter is past the "needs a finger to suck on" phase.)
Things in Cairo are going really badly. Twitter is back up and the news is terrible. Apparent the regime has sent in armed "pro-Mubarak demonstrators" who are hired. Lots of violence. I was so hopeful until today.
It is going up to the fifties today! This is my one chance to dress for cuteness over warmth, possibly for months. So I went with the blue plaid cotton shirtdress, with brown tights and ankle boots. I might not even need a cardigan!
eta: I had already heard that the museum looting was being done by plainclothes soldiers and policemen, so I am sad but not surprised to hear that, flea.
It's cold here, for us. But that's not cold other places. I hope things in Egypt work out in the end. that's all I know on the subject right now, except how proud Richard Engel is to show off his Arabic to Rachel Maddow.
I've been watching Nicholas Kristof's twitter feed from Cairo this morning, and it's just awful.
