Yay for Today!
Today was a marvelous day! I started my day by sleeping almost until I had to leave the house and then driving myself to the spa for a massage. I had a gift certificate too so I only had to pay gratuity. I really liked my masseuse. She didn't talk except to tell me what product she was using next or when to turn over. I love that. I just want to veg, not have to chat. Its funny as an aside, because at a July 4th BBQ a friend was telling me how spas creep her out because they whisper and are too quiet and she finds them ooky spookey. I think the whole dim lighting and soft music and warm blankets and oil is awesome. People who have personal nudity issues though I think are also not comfortable at spas. However, that is not really a problem for me and I find the whole thing divine. I went with the honey almond lotion and the warmed neck pillow I got to use part of the time was lavender(one of my very favorite scents). Then I got to leave there and go straight to lunch at the Wine and Cheese Gallery. It is one of my very favorite paces to eat but Panache, their restaurant, only serves lunch so I never get to eat there normally. I had the cheese board with havarti with dill and two other excellent cheeses, a half baguette, and fruit. So Yummy! Then I got to come home and relax for a couple of hours. I had a great dinner with a friend (chicken breasts stuffed with a gorgonzola, pecan, wild rice risotto and a delicious sauce over top...although I did have to remove some shroomage from the sauce) and went to hear a band do a set at Club Red. Now I'm back home and must stop procrastinating and pack for leaving again. *Grumble, Grumble* I've been putting that off so I would not have to cramp my amazing day's style.
