Apr. 5th, 2013 07:23 pmI swear, women are our own worst enemy. -_- I got a phone call at work today, and after I answered there was a slight pause followed by: "Don't take this the wrong way, but can I talk to a man?"
She hung up on me after I told her I was the only one in Electrical at that time. :P
I mean, honestly, I rarely have this problem with men. They may start off asking if I know anything, but at least they give me a chance to prove that I do know exactly what I'm talking about. Hell, I've had two contractors now tell me that the economy was better they'd gleefully try to poach me to come work for them. So why is it that women automatically assume that I can't possibly know what I'm doing?
*grump*
In happier news, yesterday I got my Butter London order of The Black Knight, and today I picked up my Llarowe order with lots of ( shiny holographics. )
That's Ludurana Supremo Holographic, Ozotic 505, A England Saint George, Girly Bits Hocus Pocus, and NailNation 3000 Max-a-Million. I can blame![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
fyredancer for the A England, but the Ozotic I've been lusting after for forever and Llarowe gives free shipping over $50. So. Yeah. >.> Nail polish. ^^;
Also newly arrived, but not nail polish, is a new doll. He's a ( Lumedoll Koit elf )
Poor guy is bald because he arrived early and his wig is still making its way over from China. :3 He's also borrowing pants for the same reason.
And in closing, this week's nails:
It's a bit of wishful thinking. It's been raining practically since I did them this way. *le sigh* I chipped it today, so it'll be coming off and I'll try one of the new polishes. Maybe one of the silvery ones, to match the grey stormclouds overhead. >.>;
