Weekly Poll

VV Fall Poll Image Weekly Poll

1. How has your week been so far? Ok, chugging along. Only 12 more actual days of work for me this month until a nice 2 week break, so I am just trying to get through!

2. What’s on your nails? Essie Chinchilly and I absolutely heart it!

3. Are you afraid of snakes? Nope! I grew up with two 5-6 foot Boa constrictors and a King snake (they were my brothers). The Boa’s names were David & Ziggy (after David Bowie and Ziggy Stardust) and the King snake was named Martin. Funny though, my hubbie ABHORS them, even on TV. icon smile Weekly Poll

4. What lipstick/lip gloss are you sporting today? MAC Lipglass in Fine China.

5. What is your favorite season? Used to be summer because I am really a hot weather kinda gal, but I am also very fond of fall now. A few cold days (and by cold, I am a typical Californian, I mean anything under 65) in a row and I am miserable.

6. What polish colors (if any) are on your Xmas list? None, I get everything I want myself because I don’t wanna wait!

7. Real Xmas tree or fake? Real all the way. I don’t understand the fake tree thing because half the reason I get mine is the wonderful scent! I just make sure to get a really fresh one, water it every day, and it lasts through New Years.

8. Did you ever believe in Santa Claus? I don’t think I ever did. I’m a very realistic (and cynical) person and always have been. icon smile Weekly Poll

9. Who is your idol? Heather Armstrong (aka Dooce.com). I am in awe of her. She was able to turn a little blog bitching about co-workers (in 2001) into a million dollar business (in 2009) that includes two books, TV guest spots and possibly a movie deal! Oh and have I mentioned she’s an amazingly talented and hilarious writer & photographer? Awe I tell you, awe!!

10. Any fun weekend plans? Not really, which is nice. I plan on putting together my two new friends from Ikea, Alex and Helmer. Oh and also playing with my new BFF, my Canon T1i Rebel camera. Yes I finally caved and got it because it was on sale on Black Friday!

    3. Are you afraid of snakes? Yes, I HATE them and I grew up in Florida where there are plenty.

    5. What is your favorite season? Fall, which I appreciate now that I live in Chicago.

    6. What polish colors (if any) are on your Xmas list? None, I don’t know if anyone would get me any if I asked!

    8. Did you ever believe in Santa Claus? Probably, but I don’t remember when I stopped.

    9. Who is your idol? I am not sure

    December 2, 2009
    • Hi Sonya,

      I went through a similar thing with my tree when I bought my house years ago. We moved in on I think Oct 30th and the living room was our temporary “storage” place. When Christmas came around it was still packed with crap so I couldn’t get a tree and was kinda bummed. But congrats on the house!!

  • Kristi

    1. How has your week been so far? It’s been pretty good, I’ve been really busy at work which is making the days fly by, so I can’t complain about that! Bring on the weekend!

    2. What’s on your nails? China Glaze-Ruby Pumps, I needed something to put me in the holiday spirit a little more! :)

    3. Are you afraid of snakes? No, now spiders are a different story…

    4. What lipstick/lip gloss are you sporting today? As of right now Zoya Hot Lips, Meow, I’ve been switching between this and MAC Viva Glam V today.

    5. What is your favorite season? Fall.

    6. What polish colors (if any) are on your Xmas list? I told my hubby any kind will do, I like any color really. I think I’ll have to buy myself China Glaze-Emerald Sparkle before Christmas though, I think I need that on my nails when I’m opening up gifts! ;)

    7. Real Xmas tree or fake? We have a fake tree, just because it was a hand-me-down and it saves us a little money. Growing up we always had a real tree, I love the smell of a real tree and the tradition of driving an hour or so away, and cutting it down yourself.

    8. Did you ever believe in Santa Claus? I did when I was little. My best friend growing up was a year older than me, which meant, she found out Santa Claus wasn’t real before I did, so that year she found out, she told me. I had to pretend like I “believed” still and the next year, my mom sat me down and told me, I said “I know, Tina already told me”!

    9. Who is your idol? I don’t have an idol.

    10. Any fun weekend plans? Saturday we’re going to a Christmas celebration thing near where we live, there are people that dress up like earlier times and you shop through an older part of town where they have smaller businesses and everything looks old-fashioned. Now that I’m writing it, it sounds not so fun, but really it is, lots of shopping!

    December 2, 2009
    • Hi Kristi,

      I must admit, I have never been to a tree farm where you cut your own tree, but that would be so fun! Reminds me of the Griswold’s from the Vacation movies :)

    1. How has your week been so far? Busy and stressful. I was on vacation last week (Vegas, baby!!) so I have a lot to catch up on, and I want a do-over so I can have vacation again. My parents live in Vegas and it was the first time I’ve seen my mom in 6 years so I’m missing her terribly.

    6. What polish colors (if any) are on your Xmas list? The Khromes from CG, some of the Wizard of Ooh Ahz, and anything from RBL. I don’t have any of theirs yet.

    7. Real Xmas tree or fake? I would love real, but the cats think it’s a giant litter box. So fake.

    8. Did you ever believe in Santa Claus? I really did! I was devastated when I found out he wasn’t real.

    9. Who is your idol? My friend Samantha. She means the world to me, and I wish I could be as strong, sexy, and awesome as she is. I don’t know what I’d do without her in my life.

    10. Any fun weekend plans? Broke, since we just got back from Vegas, so just hanging around the apartment with the kitties and relaxing!

    December 2, 2009

    2. What’s on your nails? Opulent Cloud

    3. Are you afraid of snakes? If a friend has one for a pet, I like them; I am not too fond of them in the wild… I would say I am not scared of them, I just would prefer not to encouter one. LOL

    4. What lipstick/lip gloss are you sporting today? It’s called Nutmeg; by Loreal

    5. What is your favorite season? I love them all, for different reasons, but Summer is by far my Fave!! I am a true “Florida” girl!

    7. Real Xmas tree or fake? I love the “Real Tree Smell” but we have a fake tree. I have candles that smell like the real thing… I will say that a GOOD real tree is better than any fake tree by far!

    8. Did you ever believe in Santa Claus? I still do!!! I believe that Santa is one of the “Spirits” of Christmas. There is so much magic during this time of year, its hard not to believe in something like him!

    10. Any fun weekend plans? Two Work Christmas Parties, my Mother In-law coming to town and we are going to Market Days!!!

  • Kate & Zena

    1. How has your week been so far?
    Frustrating. The realm of finals is upon me and I’ve got FIVE essays to do. Four due next week. :cries: Only two more weeks, only two more weeks.

    2. What’s on your nails?
    Nothing on my fingers at the moment. I’ve been anti-fall at the moment and wearing Northfolk. I will ignore the horrifying Midwestern winter is coming by wearing bright nails.

    3. Are you afraid of snakes?
    As long as they’re not running freely, I’m okay with them. I freak out if they roaming free. Although, I haven’t seen any roaming snakes here really in the Midwest.

    4. What lipstick/lip gloss are you sporting today?
    Nothing yet. It’s 4 PM and I still haven’t gotten dressed (it’s 41F here).

    5. What is your favorite season?
    Spring, normally. I like fall only until the cold comes storming in. Summers here are normally awful! We’re talking 90 F with 85% humidity. Iiiiiiccky.

    6. What polish colors (if any) are on your Xmas list?
    Wizard of Ahz mainly. And Illamasqua’s Rampage. That polish WILL be here, I tell thee. I’ve been slobbering over that polish since I first saw swatches of it.

    7. Real Xmas tree or fake?
    Fake. We’re all allergic to the real thing and we all have black thumbs. We’re notorious for killing just about everything except for aloe and bamboo. We’ve killed some of the hardiest plants out there!

    8. Did you ever believe in Santa Claus?
    I do, in my heart of hearts, even though I know he’s not real. We have St. Nicholas day on December 6!

    9. Who is your idol?
    Changes. At the moment it’s Doe Deere. I could use some sparkle.

    10. Any fun weekend plans?
    Essays, essays, essays. Ew to the nth degree. I may start ordering my grandma’s, aunt’s and mom’s Christmas gifts.

    December 2, 2009
    • Hi Kate & Zena,

      Oh man I remember those essay days! I was an English major so all I did for 2 years was write papers. One good thing though was there were no in class finals! Good luck!

  • Sassyjeni

    Not much time to post so ill just reply to the most important question – what’s on your nails – lol! I thought it was funny that you’re wearing chinchilly cause ive been sporting orly mirror mirror (frankened with a few drops of jet black). It just felt right seasonally. Its been kinda gray here in chicago. I started to get a little tip wear so i topped it with 2 coats of pure ice busted which is a sugary purpink holo topcoat – it looks devine over gray. I think after work tomorrow i’ll start with a clean slate and a few coats of china glaze white on white topped with NYC 105a starry silver glitter, in anticipation of the unavoidable first snowfall rumored to be coming soon.

    December 2, 2009
    • Hi Sassyjeni,

      I love the Chinchilly/Mirror Mirror/Astor Place colors right now, they are perfect for fall/winter.

      December 2, 2009
  • Sassyjeni

    I totally agree. And gray goes with everything. Its a great alternative to black/blackish since EVERYONE i work with is wearing SOME kind of “black” these days – even the old ladies. I cant stand it. I love the blacks, but i refuse to look like it’s part of the uniform. Its the rebel in me ;)

    4. What lipstick/lip gloss are you sporting today? Annabelle Fiery Brick. Works beautifully with pale warm skin tones.

    6. What polish colors (if any) are on your Xmas list? None. I have no self control, and buy my own polish all the time.

    7. Real Xmas tree or fake? Fake, but I would love to do real again. Our kitties are a bit crazy with the real thing.

    8. Did you ever believe in Santa Claus? Until I was 5, then Dad forgot to eat the cookies and the jig was up!

    9. Who is your idol? Not sure if I have one…I admire anyone who pursues their dreams to the fullest and remain happy while doing so.

    10. Any fun weekend plans? It’s my birthday…going to a restaurant called Lolita’s Lust that serves cool martinis, and small plates of food to share.

    VV, I’m an art major but I’m taking all block classes and unfortunately 3/4 academic courses I’m taking have papers. Ich. Never take Children’s Lit, Comp 122-Gender & Sexuality and Social Psychology Through Film in one semester. It’s asking for aching wrists! Fun classes? Yes, but paper heavy!

    My husband is an Environmental Scientist and when his company has to do a Land Assesment and if they find that Gopher Tortoise are on that piece of property that creates a little problem, the land cannot be developed or used for anything. Gopher Tortoise are Endangered and you cannot relocate them without being a Certified Gopher Tortoise Relocator. So, he is in “School” learning the proper methods of relocating Gopher Tortoise…. Sounds fun huh?
    Have a good day!!!!! :)
