My nail tech freestyled some art — I think she nailed it, considering I got home and realized my manicure matches my new kindle case perfectly. All of this feels frivolous in light of *gestures vaguely around* but I also know that this is a photo I took in a month full of health scares and stress. A month like a held breath. The time I’ve spent this week with friends (and also hardcore introverting) has been a balm.
