My day yesterday:
I was awoken at 7am by my dog Sam wanting me to take him out. I had to get up anyway to take the truck in for it's leveling... Anyhow I got up, took the dog out, spoke to my husband before he left for Balad (he's on his way hom YAY). So I took the dog out and then decided after talking to my hubby to get ready for my day.
I was taking the truck in to be leveled, don't ask... It's a long annoying story. Anyhow, the leveling takes 3 - 3.5 hours, so I thought I would be stuck with nothing to do... Oy was I wrong! I dropped off the truc at around 9am. I decided instead of waiting in the shop area I'd walk up to the, I wanna say strip mall, but it's really not that big. Only about 10 shops in all. It was about a 15 minute walk, anyhow... As I was walking I was trying to figure out what to do, I really didn't want to sit in Starbucks for the entire time I would be waiting. So I though "I know what I can do... I'll get my hair cut". So I was hot and sweaty by the time I got to the hair dresser, so I thought "I'll have them wash my hair", I typically don't have them wash my hair. So I told the lady, "my hair will need to be brushed as I haven't brushed it in like a week". She doesn't brush it before washing it, which personally I think would've been the obvious route. So she's washing my hair and it took like 30 minutes, I'm not kidding. It felt good, but so much conditioner! So after a hour at the hairdresser I errrrr wondering "what can I do now?"
I went and sat in starbucks for a bit, got a tea and relaxed on one of the couches. Then I saw a sign "Mani/Pedi Combo $34", so naturally all I could think of was "YES! That is perfect, it'll kill like a hour at least". I walked in and picked put my colour for my toes Hot Pink. So I'm sitting there talking to the guy, and I had to warn him that I have a tendency to try and kick people who mess with my feet when it comes to the scrubbing part of the bottom of your foot. I'm sure everyone has that one part on there foot that is freakishly ticklish. So when it cam to the scrubbing part I had to concentrate so I wouldn't kick him. Then came the massage and he asked me if I liked having the massage. I looked at him and said "it's the bes part! How could anyone not like it?" he looks at me and responds, "you'd be surprised." it took about a our for the pedicure, and my feet felt awesome! So, I can't think of the word I want to use to describe how good they felt, but if you've had a pedicure you should know what I'm trying to say... Relaxed isn't a word I would associate with my feet feeling, but that's the only way I can think to describe it. The manicure was fine, I've had better manicures, you know where they massage your arms up to the elbow. But it went well. So close to 2 hours later I was done.
I started walking back down to pick up the truck. By the time I got to it, it was finished! Woohoo, no waiting around for me. It turned put to be a pretty eventful morning. Me bitching at my husband that it was going to be boring becausei would have nothing to do, and it ended up being rather enjoyable!
So that was my day yesterday, and yes you really did just sit there and read all my ramblings!
