Peril of the Week – Is it Naptime?

One of the challenges of online dating is moving from an online relationship to an offline relationship. Although it is easier staying glued to your computer, in order to be successful, you need to meet face-to-face at a mutually convenient time and place.

They say when a man tells you how he really feels, you should believe it! When a man says he doesn’t want to get married, well he just doesn’t want to get married. So when a friend of mine accepted a cyber-date from a man and he called to say he was a bit on the tired side and requested that they reschedule the date, she should have listened. However, she didn’t want to get replaced by another online prospect in the competitive dating pool and convinced him they should still meet for their casual dinner.

After the entree was brought to the table, she heard a loud noise. No, it wasn’t the table crashing, and the waiter didn’t drop a full tray of plates. The noise she actually heard was from her cyber-date who actually meant what he said, and was sitting across from her snoring loudly. I guess he forgot to take a nap that day before their online date. Sometimes what a man says and what he means are actually true.

It’s All About the Nails

I spent the morning at the OPI Headquarters in North Hollywood where I was privileged to meet Suzi Weiss-Fischmann, the Executive VP and Artistic Director at OPI Products, the giant makers of nail polish.

Suzi, better known as the First Lady of Nails, is the creative genious that came up with every signature color as well as the fun and flirty names for OPI shades.

With fun colors such as such as OPI Lincoln Park After Dark and several from the OPI Nail Polish India Collection – I’m india Mood for Love, a group of women were personally treated in hearing Suzi’s stories including her world wide travels in search of new names for the fashionable shades of color for each season.

Each woman went home with a  with a copy of the hardcover book called, I’M NOT REALLY A WAITRESS,  which highlights OPI’s 25 years in the beauty industry, as well as a goody bag filled with treats and the lastest colors of the season in the OPI Nail Lacquer – Louvre Me Louvre Not – France Collection.  Along with a tube of O.P.I. Avoplex Cuticle Oil to Go, and a base coast and top coat we were well prepared to make sure our nails would shine for the next online date we might have on the calendar.
