Empanada time. (Taken with Instagram at Casa De Las Empanadas)
There’s those ugly nails I hate, too. Gag.
Day 3 of 30 day drawing challenge: best friend
I cheated and did day 5 on day 3, but I think it’s warranted since it’s ladynasty’s birthday.Since I can’t be there in person, I designed you an ironic nail set instead♡
I’ll edit this post later with a better scan/something not taken with an iPhone.
Notice Lindsay Lohan nail. THIS CHICK KNOWS ME <3

SWV - Right Here (Human Nature Mix) (1993)
Probably Top 5 Summatime Jams for me. Memorial Day weekend is coming up so I’m combing my iTunes for the best feel-good songs.
Fun facts about this song:
Not that anyone cares, but here are my nails for the past two weeks. I had the hot pink done in a rush before I left for L.A. and was generally happy with it except for the fact that THE ACRYLIC ON MY RIGHT THUMB CHIPPED OFF AFTER A WEEK. That never happens and it’s a sign I need to finally quit my #2 salon (where I had these done) because broken/chipped nails aren’t something I can fix easily at home. I’d have to go back to the salon and pay 5 bucks for a new nail and probably get goaded into a fill I don’t need while I’m at it. It’s like going to the mechanic for a tune up and then they screw something up on purpose so your car breaks and you have to take it back and get it fixed for $500.
The moral of this story is: Fuck you, Fancy Nails in the Fashion Square Mall, I knew you were trouble when you used a fucking nail clipper to cut my thumbs down instead of the drill. THIS IS SERIOUS BUSINESS.
Anyway, my shit was fucked up so I had to file one nail down like a crack whore and while I did that I decided to try the gradiated tips thing that’s getting really popular. I used a purple from Milani i’m obsessed with and it looked nice, but I figured everything would look nicer with iridescent glitter so I globbed that on, too. It’s really pretty and eye catching, but no one has noticed it yet because I work by myself and I only hang out wth my friends in dark rooms (bow chicka wow wow).
I replaced my gold polish with a gold holo glitter one so I think my next design will use that.
Do you got a green thumb?
not at all. i kill everything. my boss’ wife gave me bamboo for my desk (a plant that is impossible to fuck up) and i killed it. I killed her prize orchids. I killed a vase full of random weeds with some fish in it (i really felt bad about that :( ). right now she has a self-feeding planter on my desk with a random fern. all i have to do is fill it once a week and it shouldn’t die. hopefully. >_>
when we getting married, boo?
i’m outside ur window
how much can you bench press?
i don’t even think i can lift the bar.
what do your nails look like right now?
like this!

Essie “Como” with gold and silver stripes. It reminds me of the Golden Girls, tbh. I need to buy rhinestones later to put on these for extra “oomph”.
your nails are sicknasty. i mean this in a good way, y’know?
thank you. that’s what i’m going for— stuff that’s so tacky and ugly that it’s endearing.
What makes you feel really good?
the one day a month when my legs are shaved and my bedsheets are clean, buffets, freshly plucked eyebrows, attention from boys, when all my friends are together and we’re drunk and adventuring, a new nail design (of course), hugz, the warm glow of my iPhone, when i come home sometimes and my mom has made my bed and straightened up my room because she missed me.
Should I get my nails re-done tomorrow when I get paid? I was gonna wait for November but as soon as I saw this picture on Desiree’s blog I started jonesin.
Ughhh I’ma be broke again soon. Hot pink and gold or metallic green?
Nails Did. It took almost 90 minutes to get the 4-5 coats of pink glitter I had on the tips of my nails off. I was a little worried that the acetone (I only use 100% acetone to remove polish, and you should too) would start dissolving my nails from all the application, but moths of fills have made them impenetrable, I guess. Anyway, this design is old; I did it while eating Taco Bell and watching the MJ Memorial last week. This set is a testament to how awesome the quality of Milani polish is; I’m wearing only two coats of this gold and realized today that I forgot to put topcoat on. I haven’t had a single chip, not even tipwear, in almost two weeks. I’m tempted to just leave this shit on until the end of the month when I get filled, but I’m already tired of the design. I’m thinking I want to find a Tiffany blue, jade green, or true lavender for my next set. Any recommendations?
Nails Did! (Note pre-menstrual pimple.) I asked the tech (Betty, my normal tech and design mastermind was on vacation) for a short, sheer pink. I wanted to go natural for a few weeks so I didn’t have to worry about it amongst all the summer BBQ’s and things I had coming up in the next few weeks. She didn’t listen to me at all and gave me some lame and trashy looking American. I promptly went home, dug out my Milani Disco Lights and did a rose glitter tip on each nail. Even when I want to be natural, something happens and I end up with flashy nails anyway.
