Sans Glitter

This may come as shock to most of you, but... I want to paint my fingernails. I often want to do this. But I almost never do because I have this (irrational?) fear that if I paint my fingernails, it will affect my personality. Like if my nails are razzleberry blue or passion pink or candy apple red, then I won't be ME anymore. I'm worried I'll get distracted by them and start acting like a moron--or at least acting like someone I'm not. Kind of an invasion-of-the-body-snatchers type of thing.

This fear pertains exclusively to painting my fingernails. I have no such qualms about my toenails (which I haven't painted in years and have no intention of painting any time soon or indeed ever again). I don't feel that way about my hair either. I've never dyed or highlighted to lightened-darkened-bleachened-whatevend may hair. But that's because I LIKE it the way it is and I don't want to bother with the damage or the upkeep. I don't feel this way about make up either. Admittedly, my make up usage is minimal and never varying, BUT STILL.

Anyway. The fingernails. I mean, I WANT to. But I'm not sure I'm ready for the risk.
