I'm glad you put a descriptive, I was going to ask "what terrible infection do you have? Feel better soon"
I don't get out much, can ya tell?
I had a pedicure only once in my life, it was at an Aveda Institute.. the student did a terrible job - I could see the brushstrokes and some of the polish was on my toes in a blob. She did the required shoulder massage, had to tell her please stop! You're killing me! Pinch, grab, pull, pinch.. owwwwwww... Needless to say, I haven't gone back.
My neighbor gets hers done all the time, I better ask her where she goes. Then again, my toes are UGLY.
Ok, not the scary nails.....how about the tie dyed halloween nails??
(cause I know how much tie-dyed is loved around here)
How about cutsy Halloween nails??
By the way....these aren't my nails....I'm not that creative or steady handed.....lol 
Ooooo!Glittery orange
Eeeeee!
Uh-huh!
I had a really cheap self-employed therapist last year. Apparently too cheap, he went out of business and now works for Massage Envy - boo!
yeah, not a good time. Having a session a month apart is not ideal, I just have to figure out how to get it into my family's schedule.
Yeah, I was telling someone about my experience and said the massaging was nice at first (I'd been told they'd massage my feet), but when it moved to my ankles, then my calves and around my knees, I was a little uncomfortable!
I have fibro too, somewhat mild symptoms (compared to other expereinces I have read on support groups/facebook). "kneading" is not a good technique for most people anyway. Smooth strokes, gentle pressure, slowwwly working on areas a layer at a time.. MUCH better.
My first massage was painful, but I found the more I went.. the better I felt! At one point I was going every week (cheap! $20 for an hour), the stiffness and pain were nearly gone. I could feel the muscles start to tighten up again about two days before my next visit.
When I was forced to stop going (closed business abruptly), I waited to find someone new.. thinking maybe I could skip it.
Went to a new person, the first session wasn't great- had to ice my back. Went again three weeks later , oooo wow what a difference!

The person I was talking to had this expression:
Soooo... That's not normal?!

My sister treated me to a pedicure before her wedding and I loved it
I was so worried about someone touching my toes too.Cookies?? That's all you need to say!
Why can I picture Michael rolling his eyes at this?????
Nooooo, it was the standard pedi at the nail salon I went to in my neighborhood. I did tell them it was my first time, so maybe they did a little extra?
That sounds....bright. lolGlittery orange
OMG, I love Halloween and all, but those look like someone got their hand caught in the car door.You could go for the dramatic:
Vampire Nails!!
I've never had one. Probably never will. It does creep me out a bit to think of someone touching on my feet.
I'm going to check those out! The last two purples sound nice.
Gotta have pretty toes for Vegas!
That sounds like a lot of fun! I am interested, it just depends on when it falls.
Ooooo!
Eeeeee!
Uh-huh!
I don't have painted nails very often. I used to paint them myself before going on vacation, so even once I got home they reminded me of the fun we had.
A month ago I had my first mani/pedi experience. Everyone said I had to try it, I would love it. I did like it, though all the massaging caught me by surprise.
I was so pleased with the results! The fingernails, which start to chip after a couple days when I do it, lasted about 3 weeks, and the toenails even longer. And they were beautiful.
My infrequent application hasn't stopped me from collecting nail polishes. Over the past year when I saw them go on sale, I bought some new ones to try, most of which are a little out of the box for me. My latest acquisitions (I'm trying to decide which to use for my October trip):
Deep Reds:
OPI "I'm Not Really A Waitress" (looked blood-red to me!)
Rimmel 340 "Torrid" (burgundy with a shimmer to it)
Dark Blues:
Sally Hansen 23 "Blazing Blue" (beautiful deep blue with a shimmer)
Sally Hansen 380 "Night Flight" (dark, midnight blue!)
Deep Purples:
Sally Hansen 92 "Deeply Violet" (eggplant with a shimmer)
OPI "Black Cherry Chutney" (more of a deep plum color)

I'm hoping to find time to get one before I leave for Vegas next week!
Cookies?? That's all you need to say!
It's our 8 year anniversary so I'm actually attempting to make Brad a nice dinner of roast beef, mashed potatoes and yorkshire pudding! I don't cook much or very well so I hope it turns out. At least he's easy to shop for,
We are staying at Polo Towers, which I am told is near Planet Hollywood.
My friend Levi who passed away earlier this year had two of these hairless Absynnians, which is mom now owns. They are creepy, but cute. When you pet them it feels like you are petting an armpit
One of his cats plays fetch!
