I took myself out to breakfast, them took a long walk around a lake. Now I am home again and super needing to clean my room, but also super not wanting to. Need motivation. Later, a Hanukkah party and then an LWord watch party.

I went put and got my nails done and my hair cut, both at my Meijers (local super grocery). They did my nails in a new (to me way which involves painting a clear liquid on the nail, then dipping it in a little jar of fine powder and tapping the excess off. It is supposed to be better for the nails, last a long time, and it was wicked cool to watch. My $15 haircut is also fine, even if the nice lady cutting it spoke a little too much about being a Christian and how blessed she was for my taste.

I thought I was going to be the worst person to sit next to on my connection to Detroit due to this cold, but no, it was the person who had to use an air sickness bag during our 25 minute flight. I had enough time to refill my water and buy more cough drops for a ridiculous sum, so fingers crossed that I don't cough during my entire San Francisco flight.

Weirdly, Reddit changed my inbox to Spanish.

Lol clearly my brothers worst fears are coming true and we are all about to have to speak Spanish. I for one welcome nuestros nuevos overlords.

I have heard of the powder dip nails! How do they compare in terms of staying power/chipping, and ease of removal?

Timelies all!

Mr. S had a birthday party to go to this morning.(One of his former classmates from last year's preschool.) After that, we dropped him off at my MIL's house where she had arranged a playdate with the grandson of one of her friends.

I had my first manicure ever, and I was fascinated by the powder painted on. The lady was great, because she was like, "you don't want a manicure OR tips, you want a cover". And covered my actual short nails with acrylic and painted them red. I wish I could get them redone before January 2nd. She said I could continue to choose "covers" or get really short tips

I am so glad I am not in Spanish anymore. I could navigate, but it took so much thought, and I never learned Spanish, only French.

Meats, they said it was supposed to last three weeks. I'll let you know how it goes.

Think of it as being ready to attack the Mayor, Jesse

We've been rewatching BtVS with my son (his first time). We're in season 4 now, but the Graduation Day memories are still fresh. I tried to "like" your post,-t.

I have returned to San Francisco! I even managed to hit the grocery store to restock my kitchen a bit before it started pouring rain. Laundry can wait until tomorrow.
