So after redoing my blog again...

Wow that took some time.  I've been reading a lot of nail blogs lately.  As you can see, I added two nail blogs to the side over --> there. where it says that you MUST READ BLOGS.  But if you don't really want to read them, I'm not going to send Cosmo after you to chew on your toes for you.  Mostly because postage costs so much these days (Just kidding).  I was thinking about bringing back some of the old pictures of my nails and tell you how to do them since a picture isn't always helpful.  And, no, I am not going to tell you the exact colors and brands of nail polish we used, mostly because I don't remember what we used on them, but I thought it would be nice to tell you how they're all done.

Let's see what we've got:

These are simple (for an advanced nail polisher).  Just to tell you up front that all the credit for my nail polish goes to Muppet.  The only credit I get is for photography (credit for having pretty nails goes to the One who made me).

My fingernails here are just different nail colors.  This was Muppet's first time painting my nails, back in October of last year.  I couldn't decide on a nail polish so we did a rainbow of colors.  You may or may not be able to see all the colors so I'll tell you the fingernail colors from right to left: silver, black, purple, blue, light blue (it smelled like fruit punch), two different greens layered on top of each other, yellow (smelled like bananas), orange, red orange, and red.  You probably fell asleep reading all of that so to wake you up:

BLUE!!!!!

 Now tell me, what color is that up there?  Is it yellow, red, or blue?  Just wondering what color you think it is.  If you want my opinion, it's all of the above.  A primary parade.

Anyways.  picture two is my toes done the same year in the same month on the same day. My right toes are black and white, horizontal stripes.  My left toes are black and white vertical.  If you click on the picture, it should enlarge it.  But you can tell that I went off to do some mindless activity before my toes dried completely because you can see where my nail polish is tarnished on my big toe on the right.  It happens when you have your nails painted at your friend's house, you have fun and forget about your worries :)

Alas, she's off in California and is busy attending a wedding.  And I'm here with my computer and my blog (and my cat).  I went to California once.  A long time ago when I was on a cruise.  We had two long flights to California where our cruise boat was awaiting us to sail to Alaska.  Where we didn't see any bears...except for the big fake or stuffed ones in random stores or museums (lol).  It was cloudy when we went to California, though.  I think it may have even rained at one point.  But we drove over the Golden Gate Bridge and sailed under it.  That part was really spectacular, sailing underneath the bridge I mean, because the smoke stacks (is that what you call them?) folded so we could go underneath.  It was a ginormous cruise boat.  But not the new one that apparently is so big that it has an amusement park on it.  I can't imagine something THAT big floating in any ocean.  But if it floats, it floats.  There's no arguing with gravity.  Unless you're singing Defying Gravity.

I love that song.  Probably my most favorite song from a musical.  Not that I'll ever sing it to audition.  That's one of those songs that apparently everyone does.  Then there are those songs that you can't sing because the people you're auditioning for will start comparing you to the one star that sang that song.  For instance, Somewhere Over the Rainbow is a song that I usually can't stand unless it's Julie Garland singing it.  Even when I was a child it never sounded right.

Speaking of songs not sounding right, I figured out how to fast forwards through songs.  Like, you can actually hear it fast forwarding.  So when I'm listening to a song, either you can barely tell what they are singing or not at all.  On windows media player, right click the fast forwards button and left click on the box that says, "Fast forward     ctrl + shift + F". I tested it out on some songs (including Defying Gravity which seemed very sacrilegious since it's such a serious song plus one of my ultimate faves right now).  Some of the best fast forwarded songs were Queen and Taylor Swift (so far).  If you are really feel like you need a laugh, fast forward through the suggestions below:

John Williams' StarWars theme
Bohemian Rhapsody (Queen)
Life in Technicolor (Coldplay)
We Will Rock You (Queen)
We Are The Champions (Queen)

Okay this list is so long.  I have to stop now.  Just listen to everything in fast forwards!  LOL this is so funny.  Superclifragilisticexpialidocious is funny in fast forwards.  The computer doesn't think that it's a word.  Tear :'(

Winnie the pooh song parody

Deep in the corners of outer space
Where Ewoks love to play
You'll find a hideout and a base
where stormtroopers ruin the day

the fellow Han Solo is his friend
and Leah and little Luke
there's Obi and Lando
then there's Yoda
but most of all Wookie the Chew!
Wookie the Chew
Wookie the Chew
the guy that stormtroopers love to chase
He's Wookie the Chew
Wookie the Chew
Floating 'round in outer space!

Here comes the Sun!

Ha ha!  That reminds me of this one sign I saw once!  It was sign for a church of some sort and it said:

"Weather forecast: God reigns, the Son shines"

So adorable.

So I saw Les Miserables last night.  We got the DVD from Netflix and watched half of it Thursday and the other half tonight.  It was spectacular!  Three words, Best Musical Ever!  The characters, cast, music... It was just awesome to watch it.

Blip Blip Blip Blip Blip Blip Blip Blip

Yeah, so I'm bored.  But I shouldn't feel bored.

I'm trying to finish reading The Help and label my blog posts.  I'm sure you've noticed that.  If you haven't, it's not that important of information.

I've also been writing, but you knew that.  Oh!  Today is May the fourth be with you!  We were planning on watching the third Star Wars movie...but our plans changed.  Yes, I still have not seen the third Star Wars movie.  I was too young to watch it the last time we tried to watch it together.  I think I could have handled it but I was just tired of my mom covering my eyes for half of it.  I want to watch the Dick Van Dyke Show.  Or Fractured Fairy tales.  But those are the shows that nobody else in my family likes except for my mother and me.

I feel like posting something funny I wrote.  It's from the story Diamond Gems that I was writing:

“Hey there, grizzly bear!” said the voice of a boy.  Both girls jumped, not expecting his intrusion.

“Harvey!  Don’t sneak up on me like that!” Diamond said, her face turning red.

“Jeez, sorry!” he said, “I just came to say hello to my favorite gem.” He puckered his lips for a quick kiss.  Diamond pushed his face away from hers.

“I don’t think so mister!  You know the rules at Youth Group.  No purpling.”

“Goodness.  Do you have to follow all of the rules?  Why not color outside the lines?”

“Maybe if the crayon was only pink; but my crayon isn’t going anywhere near your crayon and we both know that.”

“Okay, alright! I get it!  You don’t have to be so graphic about it!”

LOL.  Isn't it funny?  Okay, it probably isn't that funny...But I thought it was hilarious.

So I get to see Muppet tomorrow.  We're going to have a sleepover party thing and then in the morning I'm going to her church.  I guess she wanted to get back at me for when I brought her to my church.  But I probably posted that before.

But she's going to paint my nails like butterflies and cupcakes.  So I'll have to bring my camera to take pictures of them.  I don't think I've posted any pictures of my nails.  You probably are curious about how some of my nails turned out.  I can't show you all of them now because some photos are still on my camera but I can show you some of them. 

Let's see...

 Black and white stripes

Rainbow

 Black.  Notice that my toes are the same color and pattern.

Red and black french manicure thing

Red and black french manicure with white stripes

Awesome blue toes.  I think it's actually two different blues on top of each other

 Rainbow nails with black french manicure and rainbow toes with various intersecting stripes.  I ruined my right big toe's nail polish in this picture.  All of it was done by my friend Muppet's steady hand.  I had cute little presents for nails and a holly berry for Christmas on my nails.  I kept ruining my nails that night because we were watching the Nutcracker Prince that night and I kept falling asleep during that movie.

I'm going to Bodyflow with my family tonight.  YES!  My sister from college is HOME.  After that, I'm going to go spend some time at adoration.  Because you can't adore God enough, you know!  It's nice.  It's quiet and you can reflect on the past, your day, your family, your friends, you enemies.  It's kind of like meditating except the Lord is right there on the alter listening to your prayers.  Not that he isn't there any other time.  Because God is always listening.  I love Jeremiah 29:11-13.  Look it up for yourself.  Such inspiring words.

Have a Sunny day!
