Lingering Evidence

In three days it will be a month since I left for my trip to Cairo.

I keep reminding myself that I *did* actually go to the land of affordable pedicures. Here's the evidence:

Matter of fact, ladies, I got a pedicure, manicure, and had my face threaded (why the *heck* do I do that to myself...owwwww)--all for 50 Egyptian pounds or $10. I gave my friend Hannan a good wad of "baksheesh" (tip) since I felt like I was paying her nothing for a glorious and relaxing hour of pampering.

Meet Hannan. I heard her life story in short while she painted away.

Since this pedicure is the last remaining physical evidence that I actually did go to Cairo, I'm kind of nostalgic about taking the polish off.

If you see me with red chipped toenails in July, you have my permission to pin me down and take off all the polish once and for all!

So funny that you posted this today! I just this evening took off my pre-CJ pedicure - which was a mess - and I got all nostalgic about it. Ah, the passing of time.

Your toenails look great, considering how long you've had that pedicure!

And I noticed that your second toe is longer than your big toe. Does that mean something? I think I heard something once about people like that...something significant about them...can't remember what it is... ;)
