Try something new every now and again

On a whim, I recently painted my fingernails bright red. Normally, I'm more of a natural girl, and I don't bother with much in the way of makeup, but the nails are working for me, it turns out.

This has me thinking of the ways that trying on something out-of-our ordinary can help to move us into enjoying new things, or the same things in new ways.

I enjoy running my hand up my lover's thigh, but the bright red vampy nails add a whole additional level to that dynamic, and one I really didn't expect when I broke out the nail polish the other day.

The take-home lesson here, I think, is that it's good to shake things up, try new things, and do things in different-than-normal ways, because you never know what might surprise you delightfully.
