A Democrat w/black nail polish

It's been a big week for me.  As promised, I did register as a Democrat -yay!  Apparently, this made me feel emboldened because I painted my nails black.  This is something I've always wanted to do as well, but never did.  There are a few reasons for this.  Mainly...it's too high maintenance.  Seriously...it chips and it looks awful so then I have to redo them.  I just paint them clear or light pink and then no one notices (I'm no dummy!).  I also don't want to appear emo or goth to my students.  While I encourage them to discover themselves, I feel there has to be a separation between their style and mine.  I also didn't think it looked good.  But now that I keep my nails short for my master guitar playing skills (hah!), it looks kinda cool.  So I'm going with it.

I am a bad ass emo goth Democrat.  Next week...blue streaks in my hair.  Possibly black lipstick.
