Declawed!

Damn.

I was growing out what I think was a record-setting pinky fingernail--nearly twelve millimeters at last measurement--and it just broke off while I was doing laundry. I'm tempted to castigate myself for not being more careful of where I put my hands, but I'd really be girly if I let the fear of breaking a nail stop me from hauling things around like a useful person.

Still, it is sad to lose a talon. There's always a brief mourning period. And none of my other claws are nearly as long right now.

That's not always so bad. Sometimes, as Deborah Addington points out, it's better to have them short.
