"Nice chandeliers...those new?"

Once in a blue moon, I treat myself to a little mani/pedi at a local nail salon. It's not a super deluxe place, but it's decent enough that I think my chances of getting a staph infection are fairly low.

So I walked in to the place today and was immediately struck by the brilliant light of three chandeliers (yes, three) hanging from the ceiling. Keep in mind that the entire establishment could fit into a one-car garage. It was something to behold. And did I mention that they were hideous? Obviously a top seller at the Ugliest Chandeliers Ever Made Showroom.

If the price of the mani/pedi had increased to cover the light bill, I would have thrown a serious tantrum and probably ruined my polish. Fortunately it didn't come to that.
