Megan clued me in on this cool trick she read about in Glamour of painting your nails white before painting them a neon color to really make them "pop." Works like a charm! The yellow I was so excited to find at the Rack (ugh... I miss it so) for $3.00 before I left hasn't adorned my finners yet because it is too transparent and the pink of my nailbeds makes it look weirdish brownish BUT with the white underneath? Holy traffic sign glaring glowing yellow. So excited.
Life is humming along and I like it. I feel a lot like I did in Spokane in the old lady-ness of my schedule but it's really not that old lady-ish. Yes, I am typically in bed on the weekdays by 10 and that is after dozing in the living room for awhile but I also sometimes dump some crystal light and SF redbull into my nalgene and hit the Pal on a Wednesday (which is exactly what I am going to do tonight). I love weeknights at the Palace. I go there by myself every once in a while and it's so fun and comfortable and... well... Palace-esque. I know going to a bar by myself might seem like a sign of a problem but I swear it's not! I actually only drink once a week these days, it's the atmosphere I'm hooked on. Not that the smokey, dim bar is spectacular it's just comfortable and smile-inducing.
Russ got accepted to MSU yesterday!!! Turned 18 on Saturday and now the little guy is off on the Big Adventure soon. Gosh I love him so much. Heinz (former teacher, current colleague [hah!]) and I were chatting in the hall between classes today and he asked how I liked teaching Russ and I said it was fun and he responded, "Yeah? But you guys are pretty close right?" I said yeah, we're tight and he said, "Mmmhmm, you can tell. And he talks about you all the time." Aw, schucks. He comes and finds me wherever I'm teaching and says hello and hangs out with me and gives me the dish on all my students.
Post gym/pre Pal showertime!
