What type of facial would you like Miss? The Eastern European women in her late 20s asks you in polite manner. “Pick what you think is best”, the worst answer you might ever offer. She scrubs, she massages, she extracts, she steams. It is not good. You know tomorrow your face will go on strike and break out. Always does unless it receives the first class treatment. You know you are not coming back. “Thank you, it was great” you lie through your teeth. You soak in jaccuzzi wondering how many people were there before you - germs mixing pot. You spent half an hour in sauna for a good measure.
In the afternoon you run errands marathon. Surprisingly, every single stop is as smooth as ever, you thank your lucky stars. Take quick photos for your soon to expire passport. Hit Kinko's to copy couple of documents and FedEx an important letter that changes your life plan. Linger in Sephora, this time choosing Bare Minerals in Fair and Vincent Longo Water Canvas foundation in Porcelain (one of them has to work), Smashbox Photo Finish primer, Dior lip gloss #317, Vincent Longo lipstick in Glow, Dr. Hauschka cleansing cream - Fresh Sugar deodorant completes your spending spree. You storm through Container Store getting hangers and boxes. Sit for a minute at Hale & Hearty savoring pumpkin soup. Stop by the wine store and stock up. Take a deep breath, slow down, walk into Karen's nail salon, have your nails painted "undefined red".
Why undefined?
