TODAY WAS OK FOR THE MOST PART. I GOT TO EXPERIENCE MY FIRST PROFESSIONAL SPA FACIAL.

FIRST I WENT TO THE GAL AT THE BOUTIQUE WHERE I NORMALLY GO TO GET MY EYEBROWS WAXED, CAME BACK OVER THE BRIDGE, STOPPED AT THE POST OFFICE TO GET SOME MORE STAMPS, CAME HOME FOR ABOUT HALF HOUR, AND THEN WENT WAY ON THE OTHER SIDE OF TOWN TO MY APPOINTMENT FOR CONSULTATION AT THE SPA.

IT WAS A VERY NICE LOOKING SPA. VERY MODERN ELEGANCE. THE GAL WHO WOULD BE DOING MY FACIAL OBVIOUSLY HAD AN ACCENT, BUT COULDN'T QUITE PLACE IT. SHE LOOKED LIKE AN OLDER FRENCH WOMAN. WHO KNOWS. OH WELL.

I HAD REMOVED MY CLOTHES, PUT THE TOWEL THAT HAD BUTTONS ON IT AROUND MYSELF, AND SHE CAME BACK IN. SHE DIPPED MY HANDS IN THE PARAFFIN WAX AND PLACED MY HANDS INTO LONG PLASTIC BAGS UP TO MY ELBOWS. SHE THEN DIRECTED ME TO GET INTO THE BED. AHHHH! IT WAS HEATED, HAD LOTS OF LAYERS, AND JUST RIGHT. SHE PROCEEDED TO PUT LOTIONS AND POTIONS ON MY FACE. SHE PUT ON I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY THINGS ON MY FACE, AND TOOK OFF, AND PUT BACK ON. I TOTALLY FELT SO PAMPERED. THEN ABOUT AN HOUR LATER, SHE STARTS MASSAGING SOMETHING ONTO MY FACE, NECK, AND COLLARBONE AREA. I WAS ABOUT READY TO GO TO SLEEP! I WAS SO EMBARASSED! I NEVER KNEW HAVING SOMEONE MASSAGE YOUR FACE COULD BE SO RELAXING!

AFTER THAT, SHE PUT SOME PACKS ON MY EYES, AND A MOIST WARM TOWEL ON MY COLLARBONE AND NECK AND LEFT ME THERE AT LEAST 20 MIN. SHE CAME BACK TOOK THAT STUFF OFF AND PUT MORE ON, AND THEN A MOISTURIZER, AND THEN TOOK THE PARAFFIN WAX AND PLASTIC OFF MY HANDS AND ARMS. I GOT DRESSED AND THAT WAS ABOUT IT. OH WAIT, I DID BUY THE $50 BOTTLE OF GLYCOLIC ACID. HMMM, CAN WE SAY I'M SUCH A PRODUCT WHORE?! I LOVE STUFF. I THEN WENT ACROSS THE STREET TO THE MALL, WENT TO MY STORE TO GET MY SCHEDULE. I LOOKED AROUND AT MACY'S AND STILL LEFT EMPTY HANDED. OH WELL. I STOPPED BY THE VIDEO STORE TO RENT " MY SUPER EX-GIRLFRIEND" (WHICH IS FUNNY AND CUTE BY THE WAY), STOPPED BY THE GROCERY STORE, FILLED THE HONDA WITH GAS, AND CAME HOME. THAT REALLY WAS ABOUT IT.SO THAT IS HOW I SPENT MY LAST DAY OFF BEFORE XMAS.
