So apparently David Emerson isn't so happy these days. Emerson, you may recall, is the former Liberal who crossed the floor for a cabinet post just two weeks after the election.

His main complaints are that the government is too partisan and too tightly controlled under Prime Minister Stephen Harper, the ex-aide says.

All together now: Awww.

In other news, I bought pink nail polish yesterday in an effort to be springlike. I put it on my toes this morning and... yowza. It's pink. Fibreglass pink. Breast-cancer awareness pink. Possibly what Elsa Schiaparelli referred to as shocking pink, and if so I now understand why. I'm not sure I'm cut out for this pink. (It's OPI's Italian Love Affair, for those keeping score at home.)

I love that pink. I have "Aphrodite's pink nightie" which I love. But, I'm a pink person. I think perhaps you should move toward a dusty rose or a mauve.

I may not be the one to ask, as I *adore* bright eye-burning pink. :) In fact, of those colors, I'd prefer Japanese Rose Garden myself! ("Shocking pink," I think, is actually closer to Japanese Rose Garden or the flourescent pink I'm using as my journal color.)

but overall, I say it's your toes - less in your face than fingernails, so give it a bit and see if you adjust.

My toes are copper, and I've got a few shades of green metallic/patina layered around the edges of the big toenails so I look like the Statue of Liberty when she first rusted.

I can't keep polish on my fingernails more than a day or two, so I channel all the painting urges toward my toes.

I like black.

I'd layer a light polish - a gold hue or a silver hue, possibly, something that will blend/mute the pink - OVER the current colour. Yellow might yield a nice coral colour. I've gotten the coolest effects that way!

Also by OPI

Find a sheer opalescent glaze to go over the top, and make it SHINY PINK!!! (;


That reminds me, I need to paint my nails some shade of pink before my Race for the Cure on Saturday... (;

See, I loathe pink, especially fiberglass, breast cancer awareness, or baby girl enamel diaper pin pink.

Anything but pink, baby.

That is shockingly pink. Which I personally find rather disturbing. Pink is possibly my least favourite colour. Though, oddly, I like it in the VMverse.

However, this is all moot, since the smell of nail polish and nail polish remover tend to make me ill.

I'm possibly the worst person to give you advice on this matter. So, you should just ignore me.
