A slight case of over anxious appointment booking.

A few years ago, I was the maid of honor at a friends wedding....I had booked an appointment at the same place to get my legs waxed in the early afternoon, and a pedicure right after. I was really looking forward to having this done. I love getting pampered like that.

However, on the day of the appointment, the place, a VERY fancy salon, calls me up, and says that they had a cancellation that morning, and since i'm a regular at this place, and I have 2 appointments back to back, they wanted to know if I wanted to switch my pedicure to that morning. Not even thinking, I say "Oh my god...of course, i've got so much to do this afternoon, I'd love the extra time to get it done." Appointments set, I hop in my car to get going. When I get there, They bring me my water with lemon, and let me pick out my nail polish color. I'm SO looking forward to a couple of hours of relaxation and pampering, that I sit back in the pedicure chair, kick my shoes off, and am JUST about to pull up my pant legs and stick my feet in the warm water when I realize that my legs are now being waxed AFTER my pedicure.

In a state of SHEER horror, I just about die, when the girl *one i'd never had before* sits in front of me, and tells me to stick my feet in. Im am about to cry, i'm SO embarassed, because for anyone who has ever had their legs waxed, you know how long your hair needs to be, for them to do it.....Which is why I booked my waxing appointment first to begin with.

I look at this girl, and say "Uhh...I just remembered something, can you go see if my original appointment is still available??" She says "Uhh..okay", and of course comes back with the horrendous news "unfortunately, that appointment has been filled. Is it an emergency?? Do you need to cancel?"

I sigh audibly, and say, "No, it's not an emergency, I just havent shaved in over 3 weeks as I am getting my legs waxed immediately after this, and when they called me to change my appointment to right now, I didnt even think." She insisted it couldnt be bad, and insisted that I stop being so silly, and relax. Well..for those of you who have been reading my blog a long time, know how dark my hair is....and After 3 weeks of not shaving, I was utterly horrified, and the MOST humiliated i've ever been.

After 3 years of going to the same salon, I wasnt all that upset about having to find a new place for pedicures.

Tag and Update.

To those of you who tagged me, Keep your shirts on. I told you i'd get around to it....no one has to boycott me...yet....

5 crazy things about me *which is nothing in comparison to the post that I wrote called "100 things about me"...but everyone seems to forget that I wrote this post, and continue to tag me. If you're that interested, go read that post again...LOL...I think it was done in september or october. I digress....

5 MORE things about me

1. At the movies, when I get a drink, I pull out the first 20 or so straws, until I get one that's from deep inside the dispenser. I have this freak thing where I think people lick the straws and put them back.....so I grab one a few in, and then throw the ones before it away.

2. I LOVE martinis....they're usually all I drink. I love all kinds of martinis, but the truth is...I REALLY like the glasses they're in..SO fancy...they make it taste better.

3. My comfort food is animal crackers....no matter what the hurt is, they always make me feel better....

4. I have really taken a liking to blogging. I usually check my blog comments before I even check my email....And I read all of your blogs before I check my email...Oh god..i'm such a nerd.*OH and speaking of nerds....I ALSO decide to do crazy things like find new friends...That post should have told you a lot about me....LOL!*

5. When I eat a banana, I take all the peel off, and rip the top 1/2 inch and the bottom 1/2 inch off immediately and eat the rest....And when I eat oranges, I am anal about peeling all the white stuff off....it might take me a half hour to eat one orange...I dont like that white stuff...it's stringy and gross.

***************************
Speaking of Incognito Mike...he called me in the WEE hours of the morning last night and woke me up. And seeing as I usually stay up pretty late myself, he called when I was already sleeping. And then told me how cute I sounded when I just woke up, and how snuggled I must have been in my blankie *yes, I still call it a blankie*, and he told me that he thought I sounded really sexy. I didnt remember the phone call until he found me on messenger today...and reminded me of how cute he thought I sounded. It all came back to me in a horriffic rush....I was talking to a guy with a quasi-mullet in the middle of the night, while I was half asleep in bed. And I was SO horrified that I told him I felt so uncomfortable with him calling late at night, and if he wanted to be friends, that was okay....but there was NO way that I was looking to form any other type of extra curricular relationship with him, so if thats what he was after to screw off....

Now that I have this nerd, I dont want him....See what you get for being nice to people? Take this as a cautionary tale kiddies....give people attention who dont usually get it, and they cling to you like plastic wrap on honey...UGH. A quasi-mullet....BARF...What was I thinking?? I've set my "nerd" standards too high, and now that i've found one, I feel that i'm in over my head. I hope Incognito Mike got the message....the LAST thing I want is his girlfriend thinking i'm trying to steal her man...LOL!
