I'm thus far beating the bajeezus out of grad school, which is where a lot (or all) of my time has been going. Still going at it, incidentally, so a low likelihood of my returning to writing here all that soon.
That said, and the main reason for my emerging, blinking, from the shadowed halls of my warren of academia, is a recommendation.
A friend of mine from the real world has started a blog devoted to nail polish type stuff. Personally, I told you everything I know about nail polish with the first 'S' of Stuff and Things, but if you're so inclined, you can give it a gander. She approaches the material as a hobbyist, and she's got good taste. Her blog's called
Polished Casual, so go take a look, and follow her if you're on Blogspot.
All the best.
Who the hell's Warren?
