A way back someone was asking about base coats to use with OPI nail polish.
That was me. I looked at some nail polish blogs and picked an Essie base coat, more or less at random, and it seems fine so far. (Although my nail polish needs are definitely not as exacting as those bloggers, who have enviable nails.)
So far using a base coat has made my manicure last 3 days (including doing dishes without rubber gloves, because those things freak me out), as opposed to the 6 hours my manicures would last without a base coat. So, woo hoo so far.
This was when we lived on the farm, and there was an astonishingly cold and clean spring with a simple metal tap sunk in it that we would stop at and get a drink at
On the farm we had one of these wells in the front yard. The water was cool and delicious, and heavily sulphurated. We could bathe in it but we couldn't cook with it, and you couldn't drink it unless you were accustomed to the taste. I kinda miss it.
Orly Bonder works well with OPI.

This is the case here in Otter Lake too. I have a spring well here at the house, but lots of people fill jugs from a tapped spring on the side of the road. I have to say coffee and tea taste so much better here than with the city water.
In the past few months, I've purchased three sleeveless work dresses from three different stores (including one online) and it is only now, when I'm hanging the last of them in the closet, that I realize that all of them are black and white geometric print - when did my taste in clothes become so narrow?
The house I grew up with had water piped in from a spring up on the hillside. Yummy yummy. Subsidence from coal mining and possibly fraking killed the spring.
I do not like frakers.
Much kitty~ma for Harvey, Andi.

Yes, this. Who knows how many tasty streams have been fouled.
Eek. Well, one school where I interviewed says that they're going to offer me the position once they get some paperwork through. But I don't think I want this job -- there were a bunch of things that they told me in the interview that made it seem like not what I'm looking for, and it's in Detroit, and I don't think I want to live in Detroit. Though I don't know that much about Detroit. It feels risky saying no to the only offer I have, but a lot of the things they told me about the job during the interview are similar to the things that I don't like about my current job, which are among the reasons I'm leaving it. So going to a different job with a lot of those same issues doesn't seem like a good idea.
Well, how much of your dislike of the current job is the job, versus the place and the people?
