I'm not stalking you....we were both just over in the AGs thread right? NPT is my refuge. I needed a break. It's way peaceful over here, but I did enjoy the excitement of folks stalking MAC and placing orders.

That thread is my least fave mac release. I was so annoyed skimming most of it... way too intense for me right now. LOL
Now there's a bad idea. What did CC call it??? CRAZY TALK right???? 


Yeah. Samuel Jackson's character says it to a guy he's interrogating. I love that movie.
Now that I think about it, it was Pulp Fiction that got me into collecting Chanel polishes in the first place! Someone mentioned in another thread that Rouge Noir is what Uma Thurman's character wore on her nails in the movie. (Although further research shows it may have actually been a MAC polish. I think Dubonnet.) I had to get Rouge Noir after learning that information. This is still back when I had my self-imposed "no more than $5" limit on polish. Add to it that it wasn't a color readily available in the US, so now I also had the thrill of the hunt mixed in. You all know where that road has taken me.
I'm now wanting to pull that movie out and watch---I collect movies too

I preordered a couple NPs from AGs. Somehow that just feels too tame...like I need major NP haulage...you know what they say----GBOGH!!!
Bed Bath and Beyond have a surprisingly large selection of the latest Essies and they're cheaper than $8 
I think I said it was poppycock.
Lol, it took me a second to figure out the new acronym. Go Broke Or Go Home! There's certainly been a lot of breaking going on in here. My favorite is still YOLO.
I agree. The Archie's launch seemed more tense and not as comical. I need to unwind with nail polish.

GBOGH = Go Big Or Go Home...but I guess we should be worrying about going broke!!

Just wanted to share that I dreamt I was invited to the launch of a new magazine called (I blame that totally on you, Medgal!) YOLO! It was actually quite awesome (both the mag and the launch that was in Istanbul for some reason) and with the first edition came a totally awesome dark pink Chanel glossimer.
Yes. Well, it was nice to dream something good for a change!

Destination cardboard box! Preferably one within walking distance of a soup kitchen.
On a brighter note, there's no way we'll freeze to death. We'll build fire with our highly flammable goodies and huddle around it, rubbing our polished paws together and reminiscing of the good days.
Dirty Berry looks fantastic on you Kimibos! ![]()
Buick sent even nicer goodies but they were SNAFUd by the post
. Still a glimmer of hope left that they'll reach their rightful owner. I'm going to give the eejits a call today. Again.
Elation Generation is LOVE! High on Hope looks fab in the sun but it's pretty meh in the shade.
Whenever you need a nice, calm, loving place come over to this thread. Everyone's super nice (if missing quite a few brain cells due to NP inhalation)!

Sweet! I never tried their glosses. Let us know what you think when you try it ![]()

How does one want something that doesn't exist? I dunno, but I sure want that glossimer!

That's wild---I take full responsibility 

I suspect the lateness of the hour had something to do with it too
I need to do something about my insomnia----it's getting way too expensive!

Hey that's not so bad. I haven't received an e-mail like that. All I got was them telling me to contact them if I didn't receive the parcel by Monday.
I want Peaceful Opposition and High on Hope!!!
Super nice mani btw, kimibos!
Oh, you know, just a few goodies from MAC, Burberry, Nars, OPI and DL...

Now that I think of it, maybe it's more like 400$ - but I love to stock up on all those items that are hard to get (or excessively expensive) over here.
I forgot who said it, but this is really the nicest thread. I read the Archie's thread - urgh, so tense and stressful!

Btw, this looks nice, but not a must have IMO: http://www.getgawjus.com/2013/01/illamasqua-speckled-pastel-nails.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+GetGawjus+%28Get+Gawjus!%29
Thank you! I'm doing my best 
Hope so, but we still have to hold our breath. Love you Cult swatches! I have eyed them sometimes, but ATM I really can't take more brands on my
list.

In other news, I picked up Essie Leading Lady today. Would you believe this is my first glitter polish?!
