I played “hookey” today. (Actually, I told the powers that be that I would be taking a mental health day and that was just fine for everyone concerned.) I started rather early this morning with a cup of excellent coffee and a vigorous walk with my Mom. We then had massages and facials at this really awesome little spa in Roswell. After that we had lunch at Nieman Marcus and splurged on some new make-up followed by getting our hairs did. Here is my new “do”.
Ok, so not devastatingly different, but still a happy change. We ran some apartment-improvement errands for my currently war-torn abode (I still prefer to live mostly in the bedroom.) Then I hung some art work for her because, let’s face it, that is something I am quite good at. I suppose when she birthed her little half-Mexican baby over 31 years ago, she was entitled to a little “Manuel Labor,” so I shimmied up ladders and put my foot down on aesthetics so that her newly-painted living room looked just right.
I’m home, exhausted, and preparing for my radio interview in the morning. It is a little local radio station and I’ll be talking work stuff (which I don’t discuss here) but I’m still fully stoked to get to do this.
UPDATE: Due to technical difficulties at the radio station, interview postponed until Friday, September 5th. I’ll write more on this later.
