Black nails!

Black nails!  I don't think I've ever just worn black polish.  That's a little too goth for me.  This one is not plain black - it's got some silver glitter in it.  This one is actually Shaun's, but like a good boyfriend he let me use it.  😃

The polish reminded me of a night sky with stars.  I have these silver star studs, so I thought I'd slap one on there and call it fancy.  LOL  I haven't been in the mood for anything that calls for a lot of work lately.  While I don't feel like shit, I'm still coughing and making snot like whoa, so I'm not fully 100% awesome at the moment.  Oh well.

I live for this stuff. 😃

Merry Christmas from Brutus and Hazel!  (Hazel is a former foster girl known as Olive.)  Y'all have no idea.  I live for this stuff.  😃

Ok, sirens all loud past my house.

I had an ice cream cone after I ate my lunch today.

I am clearly out of practice. 🙁

I am clearly out of practice.  🙁  I don't like my edges too much, and I'm not used to having nubs this short!  Being sick sucks ass!  🙁

Most of my nails are painted in a dark brown - it's such a pretty color when the light hits it.  It's a nice shimmery, warm brown.  It was pretty cloudy today, though, so I couldn't get a good photo of it.  I hate that.

Anyway, I wanted a simple and easy manicure that felt kind of fall-ish.  Browns usually accomplish that.  I don't know why, but owls always make me think of fall.  Probably because of their natural colors, too.  So I was super-excited to get to wear my little owl dude.  Unfortunately, I re-did that nail probably 10 times.  No joke.  🙁  I was so out of practice that stamping was just... hard.  LOL  Anyway.  Maybe I can get back in my groove soon.  I hope so!
