Can you blame me?
I’ll admit it. I love Valentine’s Day!
I just can’t help it.
I know there’s a whole cult of women who boycott the holiday.
And I get it. I really do.
But I just think it’s sweet.
And with the hustle and bustle of life
any day that makes us stop and remember to love
is a good day in my opinion.
And you all know I love me some hearts–so any holiday (Hallmark or otherwise)
that gives me an excuse to use hearts galore
is a winning holiday in my book!
So with Valentine’s Day coming up
(next Friday, y’all! Be sure to snag a sweet card for your sweetheart)!
I thought I’d share a sweet mani that would be perfect for the day of LOVE.
POLISHES USED:
OPI: OPI ink

**disclaimer: I find inspiration from pinterest and other nail art artists. I do not claim this manicure as an original idea;
as with anything creative, it was inspired by many others.

After having several conversations with Lauren, I realize there are a few things people might consider me crazy for. Besides the whole never-had-a-peanut-butter-sandwich thing which you all learned about on Tuesday, here are some things that other people think I’m crazy for…
why not share a pic of a gorgeous sunset in last week’s snow.
I don’t like whipped cream. When you’re standing behind my skinny ass in Starbucks and hear me say “no whip” don’t roll your eyes. It’s not because I’m counting calories. I just. don’t. like. it.
Don’t cut my bangs. I’ve gone to this hair stylist a couple times since having my bangs now. And every. single. time. she looks at me like I’m nuts when I tell her not to go near my bangs. “But you don’t want a little trim?” No, lady. Back off. Put the scissors down and step away from the bangs. I am the only one around here who cuts my bangs. I’ve been scarred. Scarred badly, y’all. I have my reasons.
I can’t sleep. Someone can just think about walking down the hallway into the bedroom in the middle of the night, and I’ll wake up. This drives the night-owl husband absolutely bonkers. It doesn’t matter how quiet he is or how many sleeping pills I take, I’ll wake up.
I’ve never had apple pie. Okay, there’s another one that will probably send Lauren running for the hills or questioning my Americanism.
I won’t eat the edge of a cheeseburger. Wait, what? This is another one that makes my husband crazy. Obviously the hamburger is round. I started on an edge somewhere. It doesn’t matter. I’ll leave a ring of un-eaten cheeseburger because I won’t eat “the edge.” Yes, I’m certifiable.
Well, there you have it. Some of the many things that people think I’m crazy for. There are more. Many, many more. But that’s all for today.
Will you still be my friend?
