You’ve been there for some of the hardest parts of my life and also the best. You are my father and I love you. You were even there to wipe up my tears after my car was keyed. Thank you for always being there and being able to be calm in the crisis-type moments. I may be almost 30 but I will always need my dad. —Daddy’s Girl

I have an inkling as to who the OP might be…
Whowhowhoooo?
Wasn’t me, I know THAT much… not after this past weekend with my papa! heh.
OK then there goes my theory. 😛
awwww. someone key your precious audi R8?

Well that and I wouldn’t cry if someone keyed my car. I’m more of the screaming and yelling “MOTHER FUCKING FUCKERS!” type. And I’d follow up by angrily vowing to bashing said car-keyers in the face with a baseball bat over and over if I ever find out who did it.
If it’s one thing MY dad taught me — don’t cry, get violent! Even if it’s just an empty threat! LOL
I might cry if I had an R8 and someone keyed it. For reals. Then I’d get super pissed off.
honestly Brend…
at this point, I’d be more than happy driving an R8 wit key marks all over it.
doesn’t even have to be a convertible either.
Girls won’t notice the key marks.
Whenever I see this:

For some reason I always think of Donk, and in a positive,Scree, Rawk, ♥Mouse Ears sort of way.
Now, let’s hear a little “Muskrat Love” – in keeping with the situation^^^.
You can just get some of the buff and shine crap from the infomercials to get the scratches out.
FFS stop being such a baby! lol.
Hahaha Ivan. Yup, I DO INDEED love getting my nails did! You are correct. I recently cut them short to get back into guitar. *tear* They don’t look as cute but they’re kept lacquered up at all times 😀
LOL I just spent my lunch hour at Mills trying on different shades of expensive nail polish… each nail is now a different colour OH GOD. Time to bring out the polish remover when I get home.
I like getting my nails/toe nails did, but I find I can do just a good a job on them myself so I don’t bother spending 80 bucks to get a mani-pedi.
I too have to keep mine short to play the piano. My old piano teacher used to make me clip them during my lessons if she heard one little clack on the keys! Thankfully I look cuter with short nails. 🙂
PS: I also ran into wheelie during my lunchtime outing and I’m happy to report he’s alive and well 😉
ok, further proof that bitches be crazy….
what do you figure this mani would cost?

feck me, her eyelashes look like spider legs
NASTY.
Men can benefit from a good mani-pedi too. You can get an express one at the headshoppe and I think ti’s 40 all together and then you just keep it up yourself afterwards. Kinda like brow waxing– go, get a good shape every few months and then keep it maintained yourself with tweezers and a brow razor.
wouldn’t be good for me…
I gnaw my nails right down until the hyponychium’s bleedin.
I don’t even notice I do it now either so stopping would be pretty tough.
I DID stop on my break down south so it might just be an oblivious stressor reaction.
The piano length for me is longer than the guitar length. I can deal with piano length lol it’s usually the reg. nail length anyway.
Expensive nail polish though (and cosmetics/face washes), buy it duty free. It’s the way to go!
Oh Donk! You’re a woman after my own heart. I only buy certain nail polish — China Glaze. It’s not super expensive, but it’s professional stuff (it’s inexpensive on purpose — 8-9 bucks a bottle). FUCK OPI. Best I’ve ever tired though is Chanel. That stuff does NOT move once it’s on. There’s also this stuff that has to be baked on too. I’ve heard it’s good, but you have to get it professionally applied and professionally removed which could get pricey.
I also only use expensive skin care, mainly because my skin is super sensitive. I use clinique three step skin care which is 80 bucks for the system. Lasts about 6 months, though and the moisturizer lasts up to a year so it’s not that expensive when you break it down. I also only wear MAC and Clinique make up too, which is pricey. But, again, only brands that don’t kill my skin.
There are RCM examiners who will take off points if they hear any clacking on the keyboard. I’ve never had one, but there are some brutal mofos out there. I expect they examine at the higher levels though, right up to ARCT, which I’m working towards (lord help me!).
Anyway, zed — get some of that gross tasting nail crap called “stop and grow” and you’ll train yourself not to bite your nails. Also: there’s much more to a manicure than just nails — a big part is the skin on your hands and cuticle clean up. There are some nasty looking cuticles out there. I keep mine nice and neat with cuticle oil, an orange stick, cuticle shaver and a cuticle cutter. And I LOVE mary kay’s “satin hands” kit for the winter. They have it in different scents now too! Well worth the $$$.
i’m so old that when i went for schooling the teachers examined our fingernails. of course they used to spank us in front of the whole class too…sadists
My mom used to get hit on the knuckles with a yard stick when she was in grade 2 because the teacher hated her.
When my grandmother found out she went in and told the bitch that if she so much as looked at my mother sideways let alone whack her with a yard stick she would come back and break both her arms and legs.
My mom never got hit again.
