New nails

My sister calls them "Tim Burton style."

They're kinda messy... I kept the sticker nails from my last blog post on for about 2 weeks (trust me, they were looking pretty ratty by the end) and apparently they dried out my fingers and nails. Had a bit of a time trying to make my nails act normal again. Note to self -- the week-long nail limit works, so don't mess with it!

I doubt these will last the whole week. The stickers are really thick so they get caught on stuff, and I've already had to trim them a little. Luckily, I won't be having an insanely busy week like I had last week anytime soon, so I'll update them if they don't stand the 7 day test.
