finding strength

buuuuusy day consisted of:
  • male teammates talking about and comparing proper pants fits (i witness this on a daily basis. how awkward! and yes on an equities trading floor)
  • work blah blah blah
  • coffee and catchup with tom, a recent newlywed friend from HK who i haven't seen in two years!! liz, your husband is so so so thoughtful and always thinking of you :)
best: after work mani-pedis and basta pasta with girlfriends!

worst: the shellac-mani lady (tried a new spot because of a groupon i'd bought for a baby shower which didn't end up happening) doused my nails with acetone multiple times before and after applying the shellac. that is SO not cool and damaging for my nails :(

smile: receiving a text from a friend who is going through a very difficult time, especially today. while my friend was clearly sad, the text evoked the first ounce of strength that made me even more confident that she will be alright.
