I admit that it makes me sound rather flaky, but even women (grannies) of my advanced age wear nail polish. Why shouldn't we? And I don't bother with clear boring "colors." What's the point if it doesn't make some sort of statement? I don't like most of the colors in my collection and hope to restock the next time I'm in the states. I like the Sally Hansen brand. My nails do seem stronger when I use it. Of course the chlorine-full swimming pool water does its damage, but that's just another good reason to polish my nails.
Today my husband is home, so I'll be going to Jerusalem. For the past couple of months I've gotten emails trying to organize a birthday party for a very young at heart elderly by years friend. For some strange reason, although I hadn't made specific plans I did know I'd be going to Jerusalem today. G-d's my scheduling secretary, of course, and last night I got a call from a mutual friend of that friend that it had been decided that we'd be partying this afternoon. PERFECT! No surprise.
And the student who visits with my father in exchange for her scholarship is free Thursday evening when I have another birthday party to go to, a local one for a neighbor turning sixty.
My nails are dry enough to do the next stage of my day.
YAY!!! You FINALLY blog on an important subject: NAIL POLISH!
ReplyDeleteAnd I don't believe it: I just discovered Sally Hansen, myself--and it's great! My favorite color is...ELECTRIC BLUE (dont' know the real name. That's just what I call it. It's bright blue/green, and metallic.).
What happened was, I was sitting next to a 30-year old at my last job, and I think I caught what she had. It's contagious! From now on, I'm not wearing any more sissy pinks or boring, establishment reds (well, maybe mauve...someday).
But for now, it's gonna be ELECTRIC BLUE or AQUA CHROME.
ve-ZEHU!
Now, we can change the world!
(It's after midnight. And I'm drunk.)
ReplyDeletell, darling, take care of yourself. You must try the apple green. It's yummy!
ReplyDeleteLinked you. Might try Apple Green, too!
ReplyDeleteThanks, darling. I'll have to buy some wild blue when in the states.
ReplyDeleteSure thing (boy, I hope you appreciate what I do for you!). It's called "Marine Scene," btw.
ReplyDeleteOK, thanks, anchors away!
