...and it was unreal. The lady who has done my nails the past few times, Crystal, died earlier this month in a car crash. Her 5 year old son, Vince, also died. She lost control of the car on an icy road and slid into oncoming traffic. They were both pronounced dead at the scene.
Vince was always running around the nail salon, and I thought he was very cute and entertaining. The last time I was there, Crystal had to take a break halfway through doing my nails to go into the back to scold Vince from taking a toy away from his little brother, who is now 4 months old.
Since Crystal couldn't do my nails tonight, Mac did them instead. Mac is Crystal's husband and Vince's father. He spent a really long time doing my nails, working very slowly, and he kept getting interrupted by people calling and stopping in to see if he was okay. His 4 month old son was sleeping in the back room.
I tried to make small talk with Mac about the inauguration, but he didn't realize that it had taken place yesterday. I can't blame him for that.
Drive safely, please, everyone.
