ME day

[lalicopa]

This morning I had laser hair removal done on my arms and my lower back. It wouldn't make me feel like such a man if the tech didn't keep referring to it as my "back patch." The laser didn't hurt at all, which I was happy about of course.

Then I went to get my eyebrows waxed, which did hurt, as usual.

After that I came home to get some medical forms for Ella because I need them to go to the Social Security office to get her card, since it was missing. While looking for the forms, I found the SS card. SCORE!

I went to the vitamin store to see if they had any protein drinks that don't taste like poison. The manager recommended something and I bought 2 cans. I drank 1 in the car and it was actually pretty ok. Then I went to Trader Joe's and saw that they have the same drinks cheaper, and I'm there at least once a week, so I got a few more cans. Came home, had some moo shu pork from TJ's and now I'm biding a few minutes until I go see Juno, which I've wanted to see for a few weeks now. Laszlo's home today with a stuffy nose and the babysitter is here, so I'm taking advantage and seeing the movie, since usually I have to pick him up at 2:45 and there's no movie that ends in time for that.

I swore to go to the gym 6 days a week, but it looks like this week it's going to be 5. I would so rather see a movie all alone than go to the gym for an hour. Maybe I can hook my mom into watching the kids while I go to an evening class at the gym, but she hasn't been sleeping and I don't want to take advantage.

So that's it. I needed a day like this. Robert's been working late every night at his new job, which is good, but the kids have been extra naughty in their witching hour (7 pm-ish) and my patience is shot by the time he gets home.

is this your first time getting laser hair removal? you have to let me know if you are happy with the place. i was thinking of getting it done but the only place i know that is good is completely bare...and i don't want to go into the city to get it done.

you are lucky you are close to tj's.:)
p.s. juno was great!

I had my lip done by a dermatologist in Woodmere after Ella was born. Robert wanted to buy me jewelry, but I wanted that way more than jewelry...so that's what I did.

I couldn't do my arms at the dr's office because it's crazy expensive. I was just going to ignore it, but then my friend started going to Laser Plus Spa in Bellmore. She had her underarms and bikini (Brazilian style) and it's coming out great. They have a webstie: http:///www.laserplusspa.com

Oh, I'm at Trader Joe's a few times a week. It's less than a mile from my house.

Hey, I thought I was the only girl with lower-back hair!

Seriously, I'm one hairy chick. Well, not so much anymore...you should have seen me in my full PCOS bloom. Remember Chaka from Land of the Lost?

I'm hairy too! I've wanted to get my lip done for a long time, but just get it waxed now. I'm nervous about going to get it done and can't find a recommendation for a place around here.
