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.

It's Monday morning and I want eggnog daiquiris for breakfast.

My DIL gets the NextGen nails (powder stuff). She's had them for 2 years now. I'm going to do it for the first time next week because the gel doesn't get along with my nails anymore and a regular manicure rarely lasts me a day. The NextGen will last 3 weeks, but I'll get them filled every 2 weeks because SIL's salon.

I don't want to work. Maybe I should focus on learning Spanish.

It is so dead at work. I am to the point of hiding in the bathroom.

It's dead where I am too. I just called off a meeting because there would be next to nobody going.

I am "senior" at work, so I forget that we don't actually get "break". We are attached to a major medical center, so I think they can't give us the week off. But they give us so much vacation, I am just used to taking the week. And then all the new employees are stuck there with nothing to do, because there are no professors, and hardly any staff. They have only two weeks of vacation, and I have five a year (I actually have ten).

I miss getting acrylic over my nails. I developed an allergy and now can only get gel. I think once I move I am going to do my own full covers until some of the nailbeds recover (I bite on the edge of the nail and have in effect narrowed some nails).

Today is errand errands errands and phone calls:

- Post office for 3 things I did not get mailed last week
- Target to return something
- shoe store with mom for our annual shopping during their big sale
- meet up with someone from old job to give them stuff
- go pay property taxes

- follow up call to charity for donation stuff
- call to realtor to set up appt to see house
- calls to any or all of the 3 repair people for work on walls
