everything under the sun

Today when I went to get a manicure (dusky rose this time), I saw an odd sight. A man came in to get a pedicure. I've never been more glad not to work in a nail salon when he took off his shoes. *shudder* Theoretically, I don't have a problem w/ men getting manicures/pedicures -- at least, not since I started enjoying fanon!Draco, who I think is fully capable of going through a beauty regime and yet retaining his masculinity -- but not this man.
Did some shopping at Old Navy today. Bought all summery items, even though it's cold and miserable and wet here. :-l They should hold their summer line until it's seasonally appropriate in each region, dammit. Usually when I go to Old Navy or the Gap or wherever, and they try and get me to sign up for a credit card so I can save 10 percent or whatever that day, I always refuse, because it's never worth the hassle. Well ... I bought many, many cute new tops today, plus a skirt and a pair of jeans (decidedly unnecessary), and new flip-flops, and ... I applied for a card this time. Let's just leave it at that.
My plan was to go see 'Troy' at some point, but with all the shopping and such, time slipped away. Plus, I feel a little funny about seeing this one by myself. I kind of feel like I'd be the female equivalent of a dirty old man who goes to see 'Bring It On' by himself or something.
I must dance in glee that Ginny's full name has finally been revealed, and it's not bloody Virginia. ( A small rant. )
In other name news ... If you haven't read![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
lissinthecity's ficlet Strawberry Malfoy yet, please do. It'll make you giggle. It's the perfect accompaniment to the news that Gwyneth Paltrow has named her newly born daughter 'Apple.' *cracks up all over again* Honestly.
( And here's a long, drawn-out zodiac thingy that's scarily accurate, and you'll have to click in to get the link to do your own. Bwahahaha )
Meanwhile, I filled up my tank at $2.29/gallon, which was painful to the extreme. Tell me if you're paying higher gas prices than that, so I can feel better. <g>
