I fall somewhere between anxiety and filing my nails instead of papers XD

I'd say I'm slightly longer than "filing my nails instead of paper" but if I'm not careful than it gets damn close to "finger painting".

I love how awesomely accurate it is!

I was at overly hygenic for a long time. I got into nail art and wanted more surface area so I'm somewhere between filing nails and anxiety issues. Unfortunately my job is pretty hands on with animals so I can't really let it go any longer than that or risk them constantly breaking. :(

Oh good lord, the finger painting one is me to a t. I need. a bigger. canvas. I try to let em get as long as possible... but once they're longer than my natural nail bed its dangerous since I've got overlays :[ I WANT TO BE COKEHEAD NAILS. I wonder if this could be argued as a Freudian case of penis envy transferred to nail length? ahaha
