It’s not easy to pull the wool over Zen-Den’s eyes. He’s smart and lawyerly and hyper-aware of liars. But for a moment I had him going, so I have to share it here. For posterity. For snorts and giggles.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
I. In the photo above the color of nail polish you see on my toenails is unusual for me. I usually go clear/pale OR dark/bright. I rarely wear halfway/medium colors like you see above.
II. OPI nail polishes, which I prefer, are grouped into cleverly named collections. For instance a pale pink called Bubble Bath might be found in the Always Bare For You Collection. A bright pink red called California Raspberry might be found in the Fan Faves Collection. [These particular colors are so old that they’re no longer featured in any collection, but I’m making a point here so please go with it.]
III. After wearing Bubble Bath for a few weeks I decided it was too blah for me. No character. So on a whim as a way of zhooshing it up, I mixed a bit of California Raspberry with it. I figured I’d create a new medium color. And I did. That’s what you see on my toenails in the photo.
THE CON *tee-hee*
Z-D came home from work the other night and noticed the pink color of my fresh pedicure. He looked down at my feet and asked me if I had a rash on my toes. I instantly realized that he thought my created shade of pink was calamine lotion.
So I told him: “No, that’s a new shade of nail polish. It’s called Chicken Pox Pink, part of OPI’s new Childhood Illnesses Collection.”
He said nothing, just kept staring at my toes.
So I continued: “There are other colors in the collection, like Measles Mauve and Flu Shot Fuchsia.”
With a totally confused look on his face he said: “There’s a nail polish collection called Childhood Illnesses?”
I said: “Oh yes, there’s Bronchitis Burgundy and…”
He interrupted: “THERE’S NO SUCH THING AS THIS COLLECTION.”
But I kept going: “Boo-Boo Bunny Beige and…”
He said: “You’re making this up.”
I said: “Oh no, this is for real. There’s Drippy Nose Rose and…”
At which point Zen-Den, shaking his head in disbelief and laughing, wandered away from the conversation, as if I might not be telling the truth. Can you imagine that?
THE END
That’s funny….

(snort) Oh if only they named nail polishes those colours – we’d all know exactly what they mean! 😀 Manicures & I are almost strangers. I bit my nails as a child, so they’re really weak. Clacking away at a keyboard & washing up without gloves (yes, I know) means polish never lasts even 24 hours, so I don’t bother. I do like to have my toenails done and a truly good pedicure is a genuine treat. But, let’s be honest most pedicures simply don’t fall into that category, so why bother? There’s two nail parlours in my new home town. Ever the optimist, I shall try them out …

Ally – back in the day (way back) I was very vain and unbelievably used to change my polish mid-week … pinky browns part of the week and deeper reds the other part of the week. I would like to recoup some of the time and money expended on my nails back then. I always did my own nails and only stopped using polish when my nails were a putrid shade of yellow from the polish stain despite using a base coat. It is the formaldehyde in the polish. It took a long time for the nails to grow out a normal color and I found a polish at Ulta which is clear and no formaldehyde – bought it but never used it. Right now the nail which I smashed in the garage door is growing out. Luckily I never lost the nail, but it has a huge white spot, the source of the direct hit it took. I was very lucky I did not do more damage. Z-D has a sense of humor, not always found in lawyers … I know, I’ve been in the legal field 40 years next February. 🙂

I was high maintenance when I was younger. I often wore my hair in a single or double French braid, so I used to get my eyebrows arched too since my hair was pulled straight back; in those days I wore contact lenses. It was a lot of work to appear mature and professional as you said. At that law firm we had a strict dress code – never pants, not even a pantsuit. Even the runner had to be in a white shirt and a tie and dress pants at all times. Now that I’m working from home, the difference is like night and day.
Yes, sometimes it does not seem possible – 40 years. It was to be a transient job after leaving the ad agency where I had hoped to make a career. We lost our Chrysler account and our 40-person Creative Department scattered to the wind. The administrative partner at the law firm told me “Ms. Schaub, we’re taking a chance on you as you have no legal experience and you worked at the Creative Department of an ad agency …they are a few floors above us (same building) – we know those ‘creative types’ … it’s risky business on our part.” I said “I have a college education – hope that helps me out a little.” Every year on the anniversary of my date of hire, I walked down to his office and said it was another year and wanted him to be mindful of it. He was a Type A personality who had a massive heart attack and left the Firm and recuperated at home and then opened a small firm, just him with his wife as his administrative support. On my 10th anniversary at the Firm, I drew up a Subpoena and mailed it to him, commanding him to eat crow. He was long gone from the Firm and so humorless, however, e sent me a thank note, said he was wrong and called me “Linda”- I was shocked. They were a bunch of stuffed shirts and never addressed women staff by our first name, and never “Ms.” … just Miss or Mrs. and we had to address them by “Mr.” … even the Summer law clerk and the runner. Lots of changes technology wise too, believe me.

He made a generalization and assumed I was like the rest of the Creative Department; I resented that. The Creative Department in an ad agency, circa late 1970s, was not the norm for an office. People were a little wacky in their dress, mannerisms etc., and talk about being politically INcorrect – everyone said what they felt like saying and it was extremely sexist, but it did not mean they did not work hard just like the person in a three-piece suit with a J.D. degree. He told me I could ask questions of his secretary but only ask that question once because I should write down what I was told. By all rights I should have walked out but I looked at it as a challenge. As to technology, we represented the Michigan State Medical Society who bought our firm a special gizmo to send communications back and forth – it was a huge machine that looked like a Victrola as you had to crank it to make it work. The longer the transmission, the more the area reeked of rubber. It was one of the first fax machines and it was replaced with a huge machine where the phone cradle was placed into a receptacle and made weird noises (like a Martian making a landing on Earth) while transmitting. We did a lot of medical malpractice at that time and one attorney who liked to spend time on the links, came in one day and had us enthralled with his new “cellular telephone” … the case was as big as an attorney’s trial bag and opened up to see a full-sized phone cushioned inside. It looked like a desk phone. He demonstrated for all of us … everyone in the office had to go take a peek at it. How far we’ve come.
