My relaxing day has put me in the mood for a nap. I’m resisting the urge. My too leisurely morning didn’t leave me enough time for a manicure and a pedicure, so I skipped the manicure. My toes (and poor callused feet) are more important to me, and I have a tendency to ruin my nails within two hours of a manicure anyway. But my pedicure was quite nice. From there I bought a suitcase and barely made it to my massage appointment on time. Which was…interesting. I think I like the idea of a spa (soft relaxing music, sounds of running water, quiet and peaceful rooms) more than I care about the actual services. The massage was nice, don’t get me wrong, but I don’t feel the effects of it anymore (and didn’t, really, once i got up from the table). A pedicure is so much more satisfying. (Look at my pretty toes!) And much less expensive.

What? No pictures of the pretty toes? You said to look at ’em! 😉 I got a full-body massage once ever, and it was the most fab thing evah. I felt like wet noodle lady for the rest of the day.

Pictures of my toes will appear once I find the USB cable for my camera. 🙂
I felt wet-noodly for about ten minutes. And then I woke up. Maybe my masseuse wasn’t as good as yours?

I feel the same way you do about massages. They’re great at the moment, but then what? No lasting effect. Unlike a lovely pedicure. (Remember that spa treatment mani/pedi we had in Mexico–dark room, music, giggles?)

I do remember, and I also remember not being able to name that song. Still!
