Hmm…, well, jb, I guess it’s only natural that as time goes by we learn a bit more about the neighbors. Uh, good luck with the paint job - you’ve got some experts advisin’ you here.

Personally, mine are lookin’ a little bluish - probably time to breathe.

Tequila gold on my toesies. My fingernails are currently naked, but I usually use the same color on them. I’ve gotten a lot of compliments on the color, from my conservative ex-boss to some pretty radical fellow dancers. Besides, it goes with most anything, which is nice if I’m doing a costume change in a show.
