So, shortly after my wedding I RiPpEd off my lovely fingernails and decided to be an upstanding wife who is helping to save money. The first month, not so bad. But oh how I am missing them now. I forgot how much dirt, and other lovely items, get so easily lodged under your real nails. I feel disgusting. And people ask to see my ring and I slowly hand them my hand in a fist and they look at me weird. Because that IS weird.
So midweek I decided, forget this.. im getting a nail appointment. I deserve it! And Blake's response was "Well if you get them you know what that means...." I was waiting for a response like "you're not helping our projector/home/lovesac/future life savings fund." Instead he said "You have to scratch my back." Easy enough I thought! But that my friends, was before the guilt set in.
Today I called and cancelled my appointment for tomorrow morning at 9:15. The appointment that I simply could not wait to go to. I just cant do it, I feel too guilty! Blake doesn't even cut his hair anymore in attempt to save money... or at least thats what i keep telling myself.
Back to the subject... the nails will have to wait. I had a great idea in mind, see below, but maybe this is a sign that there is more to my idea. More items to be added. Until then, don't be weirded out if I run into you, and when you attempt to shake my hand, I stretch forth my arthritic looking fist of fury.

I hur ya! Since your wedding, when I also got my nails did...my fingernails are so soft that I can't even peel the those tabs off cookie bags or scratch off a scab or anything! I say quit being responsible and let's go together.
Em,
Girl...its OK...there are some GREAT "Lee Press on Nails" on aisle 12 that look mighty nice on!
(Since I have NEVER had fake nails on...I guess I am a LOSER ;) but I am proud to say I DID NOT resort to Lee Press On's!) Just paint them a pretty shade of pink and call it good. :)

You are a great wife to sacrafice such things like getting your nails done. I know how you feel though if mine are not done I just don't feel very pretty, but luckly i can do mine myself so it doesn't cost as much.
I hate you. You totally foiled my bad Monday. Guess we'll have to play on Thursday then!
