To say I have issues is an understatement.The polishes I’m most excited about are from the new On Safari Collection from China Glaze. I really wasn’t expecting to see them at my nail polish places yet so I grabbed a bunch of them. There were others that I wanted, but I passed on them for now.

Since I went to my nail polish mecca today and I convinced two of my girlfriends to join me, we ended up buying way too much. Yeah, it was mostly me but they bought some stuff too! Afterwards we went to Vietnamese restaurant for dinner. Everything was yummy except that at the end of our meal, my friend found a bug in her food. Ugggghhhhh…barf. I always have a great time when I hang out with V & N; they are my oldest childhood friends and we always manage to comfort each other when life is handing us a shit sandwich.  Oh, and I also got stopped by a cop for talking on my cell. The ironic part is that I almost NEVER talk on my cell whether I’m in the car or not…so I guess I was getting an extra layer of poop in my sammy today. 🙁 Yeah, happy Saturday to me.

Bipolar California Weather

Happy Valentines day…blah, blah, blah. I’m not a person who is big on celebrating Valentines Day or any holiday for that matter. The only thing I like about holidays is the food. Yes, that’s it. Oh, and maybe and excuse to do my nails with some holiday theme.  I am really getting tired of the weather here in Southern California. It was raining yesterday and today it’s super sunny and warm. Yes, I know that we don’t really have winters with blizzards and all that but I have one word for you: earthquakes.

So, I went to my nail polish Mecca also known as Little Saigon in Orange County. This is the area that usually gets me into a crapload of trouble because I buy so much stuff. The prices are so good that I really can’t help myself. I visited two new stores today and when to two others to check out if they had any new stuff to covet. Well, I ended up with this:

China Glaze: Shower Together, Dorothy Who?, Fifth Avenue, Tempest, Four Leaf Clover, Jitterbug

3 Nail art bottles

Essie: Navigate Her, Sew Psyched

OPI: Rome and Joliet

Nicole by OPI: Prized Possession Purple, The Right Thing

As a side note, I almost didn’t get Prized Possession Purple because it’s one of those Justin Beiber collaboration polishes. Justin Bieber and nail polish????? WTF? I told myself that it’s not the beautiful purple polish’s fault that it was associated with the Beibster.

I will NOT be going to Little Saigon again until the China Glaze Hunger Games polishes come out. I’m going to try sooooooo hard. Wish me luck.
