Hello

I've finally managed to stop biting my nails (it's only taken 26 years) so I'm now wanting to get a nice manicure done in time for Christmas to treat myself. I've not heard good things about the bigger franchises like Professionail/Gentle Nails.

so can anyone recommend a good nail salon or manicurist? Would prefer somewhere either in the city itself or northern suburbs..

Thank you!

Bulgarian archaeologist Nikolay Ovcharov plans to demonstrate the grandeur of the medieval palace of Tsar Simeon I The Great (893-927 AD) by creating a 1:10 replica (i.e. ten times smaller) of the palace, complete with "the latest light and cinema technology."

Several times in the past, cast members have discussed the possibility of playing themselves 19 years in the future for the epilogue to Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. MTV has a new interview online tonight with actor Tom Felton who says he has not had confirmation yet on how that scene will be handled. Quotage: "For the big-screen adaptation, does that mean older actors will portray

to discuss ways we can all deal with stress in our lives (and not
resort to the worst sort of Muggle mindset and behavior) For ten days, various HPA staffers are blogging right here on...

Monsters in the lake. Leftover leviathans from a chthonic time. They hide in shapes of ordinary water creatures, unleashing their true forms when they close in for the kill. I can do nothing but try to escape, ignoring the peril of others around me. As they do, or try.

Whenever I dream about the lake, Bruce/bigshark is there, a safe presence. But not this time, and I woke up feeling hollow and afraid.

Would you rather be a member of a world championship sports team or be the champion of an individual sport? which sport would you choose?

well i would have to say an individual as any sport i would likely be interested in is mostly an individual sport. dueling is what i would go for.
really i don't mind either way

The Monkees are one of the underrated groups of the 60s. True, they were supposed to be extruded pop product, a totally manufactured band. But sometimes, they get into the really excellent.



A rough translation:

Riu, riu, chiu (nightingale's sounds)
The river bank protects it,
As God kept the wolf from our lamb

The rabid wolf tried to bite her
But God Almighty knew how to defend her
He wished to create her impervious to sin
Nor was this maid to embody original sin

He comes to give life to the dead
He comes to redeem the fall of man
This child is the light of day
He is the very lamb Saint John prophecied

My singing teacher, Brian Powers Smith, and I!



He is immensely musically talented. He's a pianist, organist and former tenor in the Opéra de Montréal. He's been the music director at my church for almost 50 years. He is being forced to retire this January.

He's taught me everything I know about music, and I owe any future musical career to him. He's always been much too kind to me.

"It was a scene more reminiscent of Europe in the Middle Ages - but the middle ages were never this much fun." writes reporter Sarah Moore of the Beaumont (Texas) Enterprise.

I Hope You Feel Better...

Now, I'm not quite as ragey as this person is, probably because my illness isn't THAT bad and I tend to be like a kitty and purr when people give me any form of affection, which is what I take well wishes for. I realise I talk about being ill a lot, and I take it in stride and make a joke about it (I made a special "Get Well Soon, Nacey" icon for my friend when she responds to my illness posts).

I am not saying this woman's reaction is wrong. It was the same for me for a long time. I'm just saying it's a good thing to read up if you know a lot of people with chronic illnesses and regularly talk to them.

I guess, I feel frustrated when people say "Get Well", but it's a relief to hear that instead of "Well, if you just got out more..." so I just look for the silver lining and notice the good heart in which it was meant and take it from there.

So, my point is that don't worry about it too much when talking to me, but keep in mind that saying anything that insinuates that I can make a full recovery can be a little depressing for me.

Katie’s got one sign, but she sure knows how to use it: “all done.”

When she’s done with dinner, she signs it, indicating that I should stop trying to put food in her and take her out of her chair.
When she wants to get out of the bathtub, she signs it.
Last night when she was nursing and needed me to switch sides, she signed it, while making it clear that she was referring to ME, not her. (She made her “more” noise.)
Last night, when she was in her crib and wanted Brandon to pick her up, she signed it, indicating that she was done with the crib, thank you very much.

It wows me that she can assign this sign to so many different contexts (most notably the “I need more milk and you’re all out” one). Little beeblestein is a smarty!

Do you think society puts too much pressure on people to be in relationships and/or have children? Do you think this ostracizes people who would be perfectly content to remain single and/or child-free? Is this pressure worse around the holidays?

OH LORD YES. I swear, if I hear one more person say "oh, you'll change your mind, you'll want children! Your biological clock'll start ticking and you'll want some cute babies of your own!" I will scream. My mom and older sister started the whole "it's different when they're your own" spiel recently, and Bryan's mom has filled FOUR 'grandchild boxes'. I DO NOT WANT BABIES. DEAL WITH IT, UNIVERSE.

Double!

Vincent Price. When he was younger, hmm. He was kinda hot. Full lips, striking bone structure. (I don't know why he's carrying "The Book of Mormon". I'd like to change the title to "The Book of Kicking Ass Via Voice Alone.")

Oh, and Mum's watching Al Gore's Inconvenient Truth. He's making me hot with his logic and passion. I can't help it.

So, I've been trying Levlen and for two days straight, I have been SICK. Just horribly, terribly sick. I am talking nausea, abdominal discomfort, malaise, migraine aura, crap. And the pain has been worse, SO MUCH WORSE.

I don't know if it's my endo or what. I just want to find a way to stop being in pain. Why do these damned birth control pills cause me so much fucking trouble?
