Tumblr Crossover year One: umm.. ok.. that was weird..

August 10th, 2010

yesterday I had my first ever 2 hour body massage.. the reason it was 2 hours?.. well.. back in march I went to a massage appointment that was a gift from my lova.. and it was amazing.. my car accident back felt so good.. my shoulder blade wasn’t clicking and when the lady talked about signing up for a year contract.. $50 a month for one massage a month.. anything else was 50% off.. I was sold.. it was right before the wedding.. I knew the airplane ride to Greece would kill my body.. I deserved this.. so I talked myself into signing up.. no enrollment fee.. done!

only one problem.. I really don’t have any babysitters down here anymore.. and my go to mama who lives two doors down had birthed her little baby Q the day I left for my honeymoon.. and the thought of asking a mother of two with a newborn to throw Olive into the mix.. didn’t fly with me.. especially when I was getting a relaxing massage! so the massages “banked” up.. they called me every month to say.. Mrs. Bruce.. you now have 5 massages to use.. and the worst part.. umm. I never told Dustin I signed up for them :0 it was the first time I had ever done something like that.. I had to confess yesterday of course.. because he had to watch Olive while I disappeared for two hours..

so I strolled into the town center looking like a scrub.. like for some reason I am allowed to wear comfy old maternity pants.. and a hoodie to get a massage.. because I know I am going to oily after.. so I can justify it.. I was sitting in the waiting room getting ready to hear my name be called.. when out of no where.. this 6 foot tall handsome.. ok.. borderline HOT man walks in and says my name.. seriously.. I usually have pudgy little girls who don’t give two craps about my hoodie and old maternity pants.. I also realize that I don’t have my rings on.. again.. the oil factor.. it was my first awkward moment where I didn’t want to be that loser that yells..” I am married" and he goes.. well.. I have a girlfriend nutcase.. so I didn’t say anything.. than all the normal thoughts come pouring into your mind.. are my legs cleanly shaved.. did I put any makeup on.. what underwear am I wearing.. oh.. thank god for laundry day.. I was wearing the fun pre baby undies.. phew..

so we head in.. and he is massaging and talking :S.. i hate when they talk.. and he is literally shit kicking my body.. it was intense.. there was blood flowing to parts of my body that felt like someone was pouring water down my arms.. and he starts to tell me about this gift that he has had since he was a child.. and how he can channel energy’s.. and I could feel my whole body buzzing where his hands were.. it was insane.. he asks me to tell him what colours I see.. and I tell him blue and green .. which are apparently the colours you see when you are channeling shoulder neck energy.. it was a trip.. sadly.. the two hours ends and in this place.. they step outside and wait for you to get dressed.. and I always panic that he is going to come in while I am stumbling around in my massage haze with no top on .. I look in the mirror before I step out.. and I was a hot mess.. my new bangs look like they are two little rainbows sprouting out of my head.. and apparently I did wear makeup.. because it was all down my face.. I looked like I had just smoked a bowl.. and I don’t smoke bowls..

so now we are standing out in the hallway.. after having this intense energy massage.. and all I can think about is how I look like a ten year old little boy wearing a hoodie with rainbow bangs.. it was a sight for sure..

than the down side of an intense massage kicks in.. the release of all the toxins.. the nausea.. the headaches.. and I was off to work! which of course was busy for a Monday.. it was a rough night at work.. all I wanted to do was come home and put my car accident sore body to bed!

on a random note.. I now follow this woman’s food blog!www.thewoodsidekitchen.com Her food is delicious.. simple.. and i don’t need braised beef lamb bouillon to make anything.. they are ingredients that I mostly have in my home.. and I am already two recipes in.. and my fridge and cupboards are stocked for two more! yesterday morning was granola bars..
