adventures with an umbrella

Seized with the sudden and consuming need to acquire some seasonal nailpolish, I ran out into the rain in search of something red and glittery. Or even green and glittery!

NADA. The chemist that's listed as a stockist of Orly polish didn't have any Orly polish, and none of the brands in Kmart had anything stuffed with colourful glitter.

While sulking and recovering from the first 25-minute walk in pouring rain (and psyching myself up for the return journey), I DID stumble across a random and amazing $5 book clearance sale, so I spent my nailpolish-allocated $20 on The Lives of Christopher Chant and the first three books in MWT's Thief series. I had to refrain myself from buying a LOT of other books, as you may imagine. FIVE DOLLARS.


ETA: Nailpolish crisis averted! I found an Australian website that sells China Glaze. RED SPARKLES AND GREEN SPARKLES, HEADING MY WAY. And an eggplant creme shade. And Seche Base. Happy almost-birthday to me!

GENIUS BONUS <3 I love how Neal Stephenson is the first listed under 'literature'. So true. So wonderful.

I will keep an eye out for Hexwood then, thanks!
