6:26p

spa loveliness
I am here again.
waiting for clients to come through the door.
I decided to start an hour and a half earlier
so that I could catch the folks that pass by after work.
no luck yet.

I did give a chair massage to one of my colleagues, though.
she's a stylist here at the spa.
poor girl had a pretty bad day on saturday here at the spa,so
I'm glad she enjoyed the massage.
she totally deserved it.
it gives me special satisfaction when I give massages to folks that
really need and deserve one.

cool thing is, I'll get a free haircut in return. yippeee!!!

tomorrow afternoon I was able to get booked for a session at 5:15p.
the funny thing is, I actually answered the phone for that person
who made the reservation.
In any case, I'm pretty excited about it.
There's definitely something special about this place that
makes me want to keep coming back.
For the most part, I think it's because there are other
people here to keep me company unlike at the last
spa I worked at.

Don't get me wrong. That place was a great place to work, too,
but I was often by myself or with one other person.
Here, the energy level is a bit higher.
I guess I generally feel more motivated in this type of environment.

saturday night
so, me and my bf had a great time at 111 Minna.
Cool place! I had never been there before, so it was a treat.
If you haven't been there, it's this art gallery that they turn into
a club on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday nights.

The art displayed on the wall was by this artist
who had an apparent fascination with cowboys and space.
Very ecclectic stuff!
I do enjoy seeing the creativity that comes from the deep
recesses of people's minds.
it's quite a trip for me.

Unfortunately, I could only last til 12p on the dance floor that night,
so we cut out early.
The music was danceable, but it didn't quite move me as it could have.
It was kinda loungey, almost hip hop beats.
I dunno, it just didn't totally do it for me.

So instead, we ended up eating at Ling Nam's in DC.
Man, 'haven't eaten there in quite some time.
Now i know why.
We originally headed for Sinugba, but I guess they're not
open til the wee hours of the morning anymore. sucks for us!

Anyhoo, it was a good night. A few of our friends just
recently hooked up, so there was definitely the vibe
of "new love" in the air.
It was just nice to see. definitely much better than relationship drama.

Ok well, better get going and start looking somewhat productive while
I wait for clients.
I'm crossing my fingers for at least one to walk through the door.

til later...
