Raking the keyboard

When typing on a laptop keyboard becomes nigh impossible, and typing on a regular desktop keyboard gets tricky because your fingernails are literally tripping between the keys, you know it's time to cut those fingernails, never mind how funky they look in shocking pink nail polish.

The reason I'm procrastinating on cutting them is because I'd really like to let some manicurist do it instead. On the other hand, I can't afford a manicure if I'm to stick to the $600-for-two budget (see Nov 13 entry below). *growl*
