Manicure (005/365)

TIME:  9:18 PM
PLACE:  Kitchen
SUBJECT:  DQ’s nails

DQ and her cousin talked me into taking them to the mall this evening so they could get manicures.  Seriously?  The mall?  On a Saturday night?  I’d rather stick a rusty needle in my eye.  We were out of rusty needles, therefore I ended up chauffeuring them to where they wanted to go.

“I believe in manicures. I believe in overdressing. I believe in primping at leisure and wearing lipstick. I believe in pink. I believe happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day, and... I believe in miracles.”

It can’t be called a sleepover until you do your nails.

Bugs Bunny: Oh, for shame! Just look at your fingernails!
[Rushes off and immediately returns with manicurist's table and equipment and begins to do the monster's nails]
Bugs Bunny: My, I bet you monsters lead interesting lives. I said to my girlfriend just the other day - Gee, I'll bet monsters are interesting, I said. The places you must go and the places you must see, my stars! And I'll bet you meet a lot of interesting people, too. I'm always interested in meeting interesting people. Now let's dip our patties in the water!
[Dips the monster's hands into two bowls where two mousetraps snap shut on them]

SUBJECT:  DramaQueen painting my nails

DQ, StellaDella and I went to Target to pick up a few things and DQ talked me into buying her a new bottle of nail polish – Sally Henson Hi-Definition Nail Color #14 “Spectrum”.  When we got home, she then talked me into letting her paint my nails with the new turquoise color.  Why not?  I haven’t had a manicure in a couple of years. ~*~*~ And FYI? I hate - HATE! - the term “mani-pedi.”  In fact, just typing it gave me the heebee jeebees.  Why? Well, because to me, “pedi” sounds like the plural of “pedophile,”  Ick-y.  I know it’s standard for the industry, but I will just continue to say the entire word and not the shortened, “cute” version thankyouverymuch.
