I've been trying for almost 2 weeks...

I've been trying for almost 2 weeks to get good pictures / videos of my proposal polishes.  I have been failing, but I did finally get a wheel to swatch them on and since Shaun has a better camera and bigger hands for wheel-spinning I tasked him with making the video.  This is how the polishes look in outdoor lighting.  I'm going to try to get one more of them this week in indoor lighting because they are beautiful both ways.

Shaun worked with Lindsey, the magic-maker behind Tonic Nail Polish to come up with this.  His goal was to make a custom color for me that was a brown / olive green shifter.  "Marry Me Blu" was THE ONE, but the other prototypes turned out so beautiful that he asked to name them and buy them as a collection so that is what this is.

So without further delay - here is the Delta X Collection, given to me on 3.14.  The names of the polishes are math puns since I really dig math (despite my struggles this semester).

1:  Marry Me Blu 

2:  Trapezoidal Pool (Trapezoidal Rule)

3:  Convergent Seabreeze (Convergent Series)

4:  Functional Ambivalence (Functional Equivalence)

5:  Divinely Integral (Definite Integral)

6:  No Name (free prototype)

7:  Partial to Derivatives (Partial Derivative)

8:  Tangent Pine (Tangent Line)

9:  Differential Elation (Differential Equation)

Shaun had a custom polish made for me....

Shaun had a custom polish made for me. A whole collection, actually, but this is my favorite. 😃❤️

Peep that polish name...

Edited to add:

Y'all... OF COURSE I said yes.  We've been together for almost 9 years because we like each other a little bit.  😛

Wedding stuff isn't really my jam.  I don't have time to think about it right now, anyway.  I've gotta finish school for financial aid reasons first so it'll be a couple of years yet.  We do everything in our own time and in our own way, so no rush.  🙂

Apparently, this has been in the works since January. There is a whole collection of polishes because he had a hard time choosing just one and he knew I'd want them all. 😂 Two of my very favorite colors are brown and olive green, so "Marry Me Blu" shifts between those two colors. It's PERFECT.

Today was a regular day. I had just gotten out of class and he had just gotten off work. We were getting ready to go to be adults and buy groceries and I was sitting in my desk chair getting my list together. He came in, was squatted down checking on Bruce, then turned around and said something like "How'd this get in the floor?" and handed a polish to me. I knew I had not lost a polish so I looked at the name. I know my eyes got huge and I was like "Are you really asking me?" and he was like "Yeah" so I was like "Fucking yeah, then!" 😂 We are so romantic. Then he gave me the rest of the collection.

This was super great. He's amazing and creative and supportive and thoughtful and I love him. We're nerds. He named the rest of the polish collection with math names because I like that. Here's to 9 years in, plus many more! ❤

My bottle of Cyber Punk is here...

My bottle of Cyber Punk is here and she's gorgeous. 😍😍😍

I've been waiting since January for her arrival. WORTH IT. 

If you can't tell what color she is, that's ok. She's every color. More than a holographic, more than a multichrome. I love her so much that I want to tape the bottle to my chest and wear her that way. 😂😂😂

I know that I've been so involved with school, but I've kept an eye on my second love, nail polish. Polish is easier than animals because once they get here they don't require upkeep. 😂

Here is a blog post so you can see swatches since I'm not quite ready to use mine yet:  http://www.lacqueredmama.com/.../vapid-lacquer-cyber-punk...
