• Had my first facial today. Got all wrapped up like a little Kelly burrito and had a lady pour steam on my face and squeeze the livin' bejeebus out of it. I'm kind of glad that I didn't have to see any of what she did...because it was extraordinarily odd and somewhat painful. I spent most of it with thingies over my eyeballs - I'm sure they have a name but I don't know it. They're moist and cool and comfy and they're nice thingies whatever they are. My nose and all my other skin feels all stretched out and empty and naked. Which I guess is a good thing, it was a deep pore facial. But man....some weird shit happened on my face. The only thing I remember clearly is her sticking some thing that sounded like it was going to electrocute me on my face to kill the bacteria.

  
  

  I also had my first manicure. I remain unimpressed by the art of painting and playing with fingernails.

  
  

  The facial though....I could seriously grow me some addiction to those. However, the $65 price tag will preclude the addiction from growing too large. Thank goodness for gift certificates. (I got this one for bunny-sitting - and boy, oh boy, oh boy DO I DESERVE IT! <stupid fucking rabbits>).

  
  

  Also did another 10 miles on the bike, which was better since it's only about 75 out and I remembered water. I think I'm going to start biking a longer way to work to up it to 10 every day...

  
  

  I'm off to the laundry after I shower so that I can stop smelling like cocoa butter (arm massaged with this...I hate this smell, but liked the massaging)...I have approximately 12 loads to do. And that's not counting the sheets/comforters that need to be washed and will have to wait until I have access to a clothes-line.
