Today, while spending the afternoon with a childhood friend who was in town doing research, I got a manicure.

This is only the third time in my life this has happened; the second time was in Beverly Hills, while everybody in Manhattan was dealing with the blackout. I cannot for the life of me remember the first time (a statement I wish I could make about any number of activities in which I habitually engage).

The problem with today’s manicure is that my friend and I were so wrapped up in discussing the porn scandal that rocked my high school last year that I accidentally told the manicurist to put clear nail polish on my nails.

Now I have nails with which I could land an airplane.

How do I fix this?

    They sell this stuff, maybe you’ve heard of it? It’s called “nail polish remover.” It costs like a dollar at the drug store.

    I, for one, am much more interested in the porn scandal!!

    Nail polish remover is a good bet… but clear nail polish is considered quite sexy in some circles!

    I think you should pour pure acetone down the manicurist’s gullet for not having the intelligence to draw your attention to the uber-shininess of the nails.

    On the other hand it’s not that bad.
