I've had a blog since September 2001. I'm a former nail tech, current un-published author, and mother to five children: three in heaven, two on earth. This is where I come to write about whatever's on my mind.

I still care about nails
I took a break from nail polish for a while because nothing would stay on. Even a clear coat came off the very next day (and I'm a picker; if it chips, it's gone). I started thinking about what I was doing differently: I've been using OPI's Natural Nail Base Coat and Seche Vite top coat. I dug around in my nail drawer and found I still have some base coat left in my bottle of Orly's rubberized base coat so I painted my nails using that. That was Saturday or Sunday and I've only just now noticed a chip. I think I'll be going back to Sally's to get another bottle of Orly!

Deactivated facebook
As of last night, I have deactivated my facebook. Why? you ask. Because I am naive. I though all my former classmates and acquaintances would be mature, non-obtrusive, and supportive of me. I was very wrong. It's high school all over again. I got a message from a former classmate complaining to me about things someone told her I said about pregnant women, and she took it personally. She went on to say how wrong I was to not like her just because she got pregnant, and I have no idea how long it took someone to get pregnant. Yadda, yadda, long message short, she was just letting me know how big a piece of shit I am for deleting her. I replied that just because I delete someone on facebook doesn't mean I don't want to be friends with them, I just don't want to see the baby posts. Do you know how hard it is to see people posting their positive pregnancy tests when every pregnancy test you took (for 5+ years) was negative? I tried to explain that it's my problem, no one else's and it's my issues, no one else's, and that I never said anything bad about any of my pregnant friends. She replied that two people on two separate occasions told her about my posts (which were just that I was deleting pregnant friends and I shared an inspiration picture with a friend of mine who also has trouble getting pregnant). Awesome. So, two someones on my freaking friends list made it a point to tell my newly-pregnant classmate that I, basically, hate her.
I was dead wrong in thinking people would understand why I was deleting my pregnant friends. They don't. They just judged me. I'm a huge piece of shit because I can't handle seeing people I don't talk to anymore posting their pregnancy feeds. Well, blow me.
