Today, my nails are a metallic light blue (Essie's Blue Rhapsody) and they keep making me feel like I have robot fingernails.  :)

I've had headaches (and 1 migraine) in the past few days, and maaaan, it sucks.  I think that the ragweed in the air is contributing, in part, to the headaches and the migraine, and I know it's the culprit for my itchy eyes and nose!  I hate ragweed with a red hot passion.  Also?  I hate itchy eyes and nose, headaches, and migraines!  I need a break from this!

I've actually been keeping my nails the same color for a few days at a time, partly because I just don't want to repaint them all the time anymore, partly because they still look great after a few days, and partly because I'm just not motivated to re-do them so often, and I don't know why.

It's 8:30pm here right now and all I want to do is post this then go to bed and sleeeeeeep.  At 8:30pm.  Y'all, I'm in a funk!  Help!

Life

Sometimes life gets in the way, but I'm back and dedicated to posting again.  Today, my nails are on day 4 of a nice purple.  :)  Lately, I've been doing more pinks and purples than anything else.  I may change the polish tonight, and if I do, I'll snap a pic and post it.  I have a couple from Color Club that I haven't posted, and they're pretty.  One is Status Update, which is a dark charcoal gray.  It's not my normal choice of a color for my nails, but it DOES look sharp.  The other is Put a Pin In It, which is a nice rose gold.  So pretty!  It's a foil, and very different consistency of my other Color Club polishes, but it goes on VERY well, dries super fast, and is so pretty on my nails.

I'm thinking about doing an activity that will get some people out of lurker status and get some feedback.  If you'd like for me to wear a certain polish color, comment on this post or contact me through my email.  Depending on the response, I'll honor your request in a post very soon.

Gorgeous

I'm wearing Orly's Gorgeous today.  It's such a pretty magenta with a blue sheen!

Isn't that a gorgeous color?  It's even prettier in person!

It goes on easily and covers okay in 1 even coat, but in certain angles, it shows nail line, so I painted my left hand fingers first, then right, and immediately did a second coat starting with my left hand again.  My Seche Vite has gotten bit hard to use (time to thin it and get a new bottle ready), so I did 2 coats of Seche to even the mess that the Seche caused.  :)

Orly PreAmp

I painted my nails in Orly's PreAmp last night, and I've really enjoyed the color today, too, so I may even wear it through tomorrow, too!

My toes are a bright cheery cherry red (Pure Ice Siren).  I don't know why but I'm playing with my essie and China Glazes less and less lately, and trying out the cheaper nail polishes I've either never used, or at least haven't used in a long time.  I've liked changing to different colors.

I'm working 2 full days this week (for now... Hopefully more assignments will come up and I'll grab them!), and tutoring 3 days.  Thursday, I substituted and tutored, Friday, I substituted in the same class and babysat some of my favorite kids, and yesterday, I went to a baby shower.  Today has been a nice mild day.  I watched some football with Kev, read a bit, then got my week all written out in my planner.  I still need to update it all into the family Google Calendar, so I will likely do that tomorrow if I have time.

I wasn't feeling the black and white challenge tonight

I did do violet nails for today, but the challenge for tomorrow is black and white nails, and I'm just not feeling it.  I tried all of my white polishes and nothing was going on well, and well, I just don't WANT to do it.  Or gradient nails.  Or marbled nails.  Maybe I'm just tired?  I went to work (substitute teaching) today, so I left home at 7:30, took Lexie to school, and then went to the school I was working at, worked until 3:10, came home, and left again to tutor from 4-5:30.  After we got back home, we had dinner out, and since Kev works early tomorrow, I'm taking advantage of an early bedtime.  Well, early for me, anyway.  I'm wearing a dark red shirt tomorrow (subbing in the same classroom), so I picked a nice dark red polish with a subtle shimmer, and it's VERY pretty.  I don't know where or how we got this polish, but I'm sure I didn't buy it... It was probably one that Mom gave to Lexie or me, but anyway, I love the color, it goes on VERY well.  It's more sheer than any of my reds, but in 2 coats, it covers SO nice.  The brand is Jordana and I can't remember the name of the color, but I'll probably snap a picture and tell the whole deal later.  Tomorrow, as I said, I'm in the same classroom again, and after that, I'm going to babysit 2 adorable kiddos for a friend like I did last week, and I'm looking forward to it--- I love J and M!  They're SO fun!  4 years old and 2 years old... I love those ages!  10 years old is a fantastic age, too, and I've loved every stage Lexie's been at... But sometimes I'd love to go back to Lexie at 2 or 4 again for a few days.
