Oh my god, he sounds like my ex-husband. My heart aches for you right now. I know that you're hurting, but you deserve to be treated better than this waste of carbon treated you. Call up some friends, get a bottle of wine, and let yourself grieve.

+1 here. What a douche.

As soon as I put out the call for my "good, bad and ugly" Valentine's Day stories, this friend immediately commented, "Pleeeease tell me you're going to include our gas-tastic mexican food V-Day together :)"

I was laughing the whole time I was typing! It's a pretty ridiculous situation.

The Waiting to Exhale soundtrack is THE BEST for when you're feeling shitty about your love life. My mom always knew something was up when I started listening to that CD.

I'm collecting stories for my Valentine's Day blog post (I asked for the good, the bad, and the ugly), and so I'm happy sharing mine here. I need to write it out anyways, and I really hope this makes some of my fellow Jezzies laugh. For the record, this definitely falls under the "ugly" category.

You're so welcome sweetie. I understand exactly how you feel. I was there myself just a couple of years ago. Do you use your downtime to apply for other, better paying jobs? That's probably one of the best things you can do with your time off of work.

Oh yeah, my hands look like I dipped them in easter egg dye after I use nail polish remover. Apparently, using hand cream beforehand will prevent it? I found that advice here: http://www.buzzfeed.com/peggy/27-nail-hacks-for-the-perfect-diy-manicure (#23)

It was the first one to actually make me laugh out loud. So. Much. Love.

It was in the October box, and it was a lot of fun. :)

I am so glad I purchased two bottles of it a few months back. I will be heartbroken if they discontinue it.

Maybe something from Dorothy Parker?

Thanks! We haven't seen each other in almost 6 years, and we're going to meet Bruce Campbell tomorrow!

I also got the Ava polish. I haven't used it yet.

Well, I got a bit of an extension for myself, since my friend is not showing up to SF until at least midnight. I hope you get yours done in time!

Did you get the Julep glow in the dark polish? I put a black crackle over it, and was FASCINATED by own my nails for a week.

The best part of that article is that they used a same-sex couple for their top picture!

YES. It is so much better than Birchbox, and on par with Ipsy.

I have three blog posts and four chapters of my novel due (for my own deadlines) tomorrow. I'm also procrastinating like a pro today.

Apparently they're shutting down I-5 now. My friend travelling up to San Francisco from LA is being forced to turn to 101 so that she can make it up here for the weekend.
