Butter and fingernails

Ca. 1988 - Sitting at the kitchen table before dinner.  The table had been set but for some reason I was the only one in the room.  I climbed up to my chair and started digging into the butter.  I had a thing for butter when I was little.  Sister walked in and saw me eating the stick of butter and immediately I knew I was in trouble.  I yelled, "Nooo don't tell Mom!! Tell her I was chewing my nails!!" Yes, I have been biting my nails since around 1988.

Ca. 1988 - Watching "The Parent Trap" starring Hayley Mills in my living room.  There is that scene where one twin has to start biting her nails so her dad won't suspect anything.  I looked down at my nails and well, the rest is history.
