Stop biting my nails 2 weeks ago

Ok, so I am planning once again to stop biting my nails. It’s hard to break a habit when you’ve been doing it for so long. My motivation this time is that I’M PREGNANT and with all the H1N1 germs going around, I really don’t want to put those germs in my mouth.



I WILL quit for good this time! 2 months ago

I have the shortest fingernails I have ever seen (that is, proportionately—little kids with tiny fingers obviously have smaller nails).
I quit biting once after getting my nails done at this party thing. The manicurist told me she used to bite until she looked under a microscope at what was underneath a fingernail, and it was moving! She told me, “Whenever you look at your fingernails, just think of creepy crawlies.” She also vowed that biting your fingernails is like licking the bottom of a trashcan.
So I quit starting that night, and my fingernails were pretty long until I broke them all.
This time I won’t let them get so long!
I think chewing gum a lot will help, too.

They're growing! 5 months ago

They’re not super long but at least they have a cute little line. I hope none of them break, that’s usually when I start the biting again.



Things that go bump in the night 6 months ago

I am addicted to Supernatural.
I admit that it’s not that great of a show.
The dialogue is painfully corny at times.
But it’s been getting better.
And scarier.
And whenever I’m watching something intense with lots of suspense, I can’t help but chew away.
I need to sit on my hands or something.
Damn you Sam and Dean and your demon-hunting ways!

fear of consequences 10 months ago

I am doing this with the intention of
swilling a shot glass of habanaro hot sauce
if my fingernails have not grown by my birthday.

I have one month left now.
Every time my fingernail even gets close to my
mouth, I think about that hot sauce.

shivers

I fear this because i’ve done this silly silly
thing before on another episode of “who’s that drunk guy”

i see my nails growing though
which is cool. But i’m constant picking at them.
which is not.
