What the gel? Or: How I learned to stop worrying and love my nails.
I am the daughter of a long-time nail-chewer, and took up the habit myself when I was very young. I think I was around twelve or thirteen when the other girls my age started wearing nail polish. It was the 1980’s, and bright colours were a huge deal. The other girls had really nice manicures, even if they were DIY jobs. I had ragged, bitten nails. When I wore nail polish, it flaked off within minutes, let alone hours, and almost always looked awful.
What is this polar vortex you speak of?
As always, the kitty finds a way to combat the polar vortex currently rampaging across the rest of Canada: Sunbeam. Solar powered cat, go!

And another sunbeam has been found.
