Gold-fin-ger!

I abandoned the frosty metallic look after one final fling around 1976, when I was poking around a southern Illinois dime store and discovered a stash of circa 1967 Yardley Slicker Lip Polishes in the Good Morning and Good Night shades. Bought ‘em up and actually used ‘em on the odd occasion.

Didn’t work on me seriously in 1967. Didn’t work on me ironically in 1976.

So I don’t know what possessed me to start slapping on the gold nail polish tonight. But I wish you were here to see how really really mesmerizing it is by the light of the laptop. The camera-phone snap hints at only a fraction of the weirdness.

    Did you do your toenails? Could we have a photo of your toes on the keyboard?
